Thanks everyone! For a theme, how about "Past Greatness"? I feel it could be interesting to photograph things (buildings, cars, etc) that were once grand/beautiful/impressive but are now abandoned or reduced in some way or another from their former glory.

Wouldn't that rub a little too close to elnina's theme of "Urban decay"?

I didn't see that one on the list, but I do see "Abandoned" now, upon closer inspection. To be honest I'm having a hard time coming up with something that hasn't been done before! I'll have to give it some thought.

How about "America" . . . but pictures of the American flag or bald eagles are not allowed.

Not to be picky, but some of the folks who contribute and participate aren't in America. Just something to be considered.

To be honest I'm all out of ideas. I have a lot of things going on in real life right now (illness, car crash, etc) so it's pretty hard for me to concentrate, so if the second place winner would like to choose a theme, I'd be perfectly fine with that.

Yes, thanks eccotecc, I just saw it. Per suggestion, let's go with "Geometric Shapes".
