A juxtaposition is “the act of placing things side by side, especially for the purpose of comparison or contrast”
Ok …..
This has made my brain work over time. I’m not sure I have come up with the right type of photos, but they are, I think, interesting photos.
So here goes..
This metal sculpture is in stark contrast to the bark of the tree behind it.
So is it in Juxtaposition to the tree?
I’m not sure…
Now I am showing 2 photos. Can I say the photos are in juxtaposition to each other showing a comparison?
The very tiny sundew is about the size of a finger nail. (Very hard to get into focus) I think the sculpture is a very clever and beautiful work of art based on the sundew. I would like one in my garden.
************************
Juxtaposition? Well you tell me….
I see two people, one male, one female. (contrast)
They are both playing instruments, but quite different types and styles of instruments.(contrast again).
In comparison they are playing the same tune. ( I assure you it sounded really good)
************************
These two can be compared like peas in a pod. I would say they are definitely in juxtaposition to each other.

Well I really don’t know if I have the correct interpretation on this weeks photo challenge. But it has been fun and challenging searching for photos.
Please feel free to comment on these photos. I would really like to know your opinion.

Amazing! I love the comparison between the sundews and the metallic work of art!
Took me quite a while to actually work out what juxtaposition meant, then to find the photos was a real challenge.
Have you changed your blog?
Yes, it was a tricky one. No, I should still be at madoqua.wordpress.com as far as I am aware!
When I click on your gravatar it takes me to this page..
http://carnelltree.wordpress.com/ is this you?
Just been to your post via the gravatar on my actual post and yes that goes to “Have you ever…” but the gravatar in the notifications goes to that other blog !! Very strange…
Thanks for letting me know, I will have to have a look at it and see what is going on.
I’ll go for the metal next to the tree, and the sundews in comparison to the sculpture! Well done Pommepal 🙂
Thanks Sue, it was a difficult challenge this week.
they are all great photos. the sculpture is quite impressive! the final photo is my favorite – it’s dramatic and peaceful and stunning! z
That was an amazing show we went to Lisa, about 4 years ago now. It was the Hare Krisna community presented it with top artists from around the world and it was FREE and we were in the front row so got some awesome photos.
your photos were stunning! lucky you to have such great opportunities!
We tend to grab any opportunity that comes along… 🙂

Thanks for the link
I think you did wonderfully. I’m still stuck.
It was not an easy one this week. Looking at other posts I’m not sure I have it right. But I enjoyed searching through my photos
Basically it’s contrast or out of place. I think you achieved it with your first picture of metal against bark.
Thanks Dawn
