Something for the Weekend - Part 220 - Green for go!

[davescm]

Thanks to all who took part in our 'Lemon' challenge.

For this week, the challenge is to use the starter image below to create an image that finishes the sentence, 'All was quiet on the village green until...'

Don't forget the lighting and the shadows from the trees, this is supposed to be a challenge after all 🙂

The “rules”:

• Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
• Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
• Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
• There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
• The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

To download the image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

Have fun!

A very nice seasonal change, Valdair. I like the reflection in the water.

The locals complained to their council about rumblings underground. 'It'll be OK they said...'

🤣

I'm sure this will affect the real estate prices in this community. 

[JR Boulay]

Yes, but hot water and heating are free !

 So that's where they all went

[davescm]

Ah, the traditional lemon day fete...

Dave

[Mo Alani]

Would love to try the lemon of Menton!

What's going on in the background Euan?

[derekwatson]

Oh well, it looks like Voyager's message got through...

Some Firefly but mixed with good old-fashioned editing, especially the shadows!

[Mo Alani]

I like the shadow of the UFO. It reminds "War of the Worlds" movie. 

[davescm]

It is a while since we had the laser guns around here ( Trevor was always good for them). I think that may cause a few concerns around the village.

They've come in numbers!

Well we did pass through a meteor shower last night!

Dave

[Mo Alani]

I like how the smoke has a shadow! 

[@mj]

That's a frigid crater!

[Cheizer]

[davescm]

That's a nice relief, Chezier, after all the destruction in the earlier posts! Village life is restored. 🙂

Dave

[@mj]

Agree. Way too much death and destruction!

[Mo Alani]

Netherlands it is!
