This holiday season, we’re throwing you a photo challenge color curveball. Many of us around the world are ensconced in the holiday season. You may be surrounded with blue and silver if you’re celebrating Hanukkah; black, red, and green, if you’re celebrating Kwanzaa; or festooned with reds and greens if Christmas is coming to your house. With this week’s challenge, show us what yellow means to you.
For this week’s challenge, share with us your photos of twinkling light.
Show us something that is lost, but not forgotten.
Today was one of those days that reminded why I lug my camera with me everywhere I go.
Photos are visual spaces where shapes and lines, objects, and people come together.
Not to put too fine a point on it, though this week, we challenge you to show us what “angular” means to you.
Can anyone guess at which station these were taken at?

This is my take on cover art.
Refraction is the change in direction of a wave, caused by the change in the wave’s speed. Examples of waves include sound waves and light waves. Refraction is seen most often when a wave passes from one medium to a different medium. Different types of medium include air and water. When a wave passes from one medium to another medium, the wave will change its speed and its direction. For example, when a light wave travels through air and then passes through water, the wave will slow and change direction.
