Attention all photographers and Image editors

In my daily curation as an @ocd curator. I come across a lot of photos. I love photography, it is a beautiful art form, and we have a plethora of great photographers on steemit, but I have always wanted to hold a photography contest. Thing is... I am tired of seeing sunsets, mountains, grand trees, beaches, and all other things majestic. I feel like those things sometimes are EASY to take a great photo of.

Don't get me wrong, I know its still a skill.

What I want to see is a great photo of something boring mundane average.

My son and I spend a lot of time together. We like to go to the park in the morning and walk around the lake and then of course chase the geese and ducks that surround the lake. I was able to snap this photograph on one such day.

I believe spending time with your children is great for fundamental development. I hope you enjoy this photo as much as I do.

Things Were Done, An Entry Was Made...
Slowly, his brow furrowed with resolve. He knew finally what he must do and there would be no cursed shade in all the pits of hell which might thwart him. He was sweating bullets with a steel-eyed gaze. With white knuckled death grip on the apparatus, he held steady. Cautiously but firmly he squeezed the button on the low budget camera's creaking eldritch frame. Momentary shard of pregnant silence then... a cold mechanical click signified that the corrupting deed had been done. Only now... he began to fear. Suddenly, the realization dawned like an icy black sun, that a terrible spawn had crossed over from the teaming void of bad ideas into this unsuspecting world; a Really Boring Photo(TM) had been brought into abominable creation.

The unholy offering had been made and @jbgarrison72 had been irredeemably entered into @saywha's contest.
