Challenge 5--Blue. Deadline: Sunday, 09/13/2020
Hi there! I thought I'd get this posted early in case USA people have the Labor Day Weekend to take their photos.
Challenge 5 is BLUE. You can choose to feature the use of the color in clothing, backgrounds, or props, or maybe you want to go with feeling blue / sad, or perhaps the music genre, the Blues? Judging by the photos in previous challenges, I have no doubt in my mind that you all will come up with something creative!
Minor photo editing is fine; but please, no major photoshop!
Deadline to post here by midnight anywhere in the world on Sunday, September 13.
You can also post your photo to the Flickr group: https://www.flickr.com/groups/14766773@N22/

I don't know whether you can read her shirt, but it says NOT FLAT WE CHECKED.

I love all three posted photos! I need to do mine still. I have the idea planned out in my head, but it still requires some prep from me, and I just can't find the time!

Ha, I should have known, KiraKira, how you would interpret the Blue challenge.

Benny helps the alien escape its pod with the aid of power tools. This started with me coming across the alien in the capsule from the PUDDLE gift bags from a few PUDDLEs ago, while I was searching for a pair of doll shoes. Its stuck in slime that has since completely dried up.

Wow! What a fun bunch of photos!
Bit of a last minute thing today, because 2 previous ideas would've been too similar to someone else's... I was "supposed" to be cramming to supervise a provincial election poll tomorrow (for which I had about 24 hours to prepare because the previous supervisor quit!). After putting out some fires, I goofed off out back for a bit... will probably wish I had that hour back but oh well!!
(Love the "not flat" shirt. They should come in people-size. (maybe they do!))
"Do you have any flying tips for me?"

Re: Challenge 5--Blue. Deadline: Sunday, 09/13/2020
It was tough judging these photos because I felt that every single one of them was wonderful. All very different, but great in their own way.
Here are my thoughts on the individual entries, in the order that they are posted in this thread:
Applecandy--The serene blue of the ocean and the sky are a perfect contradiction to the darkness of Siggie's dress. Lovely composition.
TrueFan--The setting of your photo was very coherent--the globe with the library background and Skirr and her pointer--it seems as if she's giving a presentation, and I wonder what it's about. The caption on her t-shirt and Disney hat gives unexpected bit of humor to the seriousness of the photo.
Dargosmydaddy--I was happy to see a ton of different blues in this photo. From the blueberries to the background to Dallis's dress to her blue bear pal! Seems like Dallis and her furry friend are having a good time picnicking.
Cornflower Blue--This photo intrigued me. I really liked the liberal appearance of various blue shades in the picture, and the subject matter is really creative. It made me want to know more about the adventures Benny & the new alien friend are sure to have. The doll-sized surgeon's mask is neat.
Alliecat--Samantha and Mr. Avatar action figure appear to be having an interesting conversation. I wonder what kind of flying tips were suggested...The blue really pops against the outdoorsy background.
Davidd--I liked the liberal use of various blues in this photo. And also that you incorporated not only the use of the color blue, but also having the blues as cleaning the storage shed is not a whole lot of fun. Looks like Lipoca and Tezca have found a lot of blue things in that shed!
Here's a photo of the prize for this round:
And the winner of this round is....
Thanks for participating, everyone!

A most deserved win! The "alien autopsy" pic had me chuckling all day after I saw it!

I forgot to post here that I mailed out the prize earlier this week, so hopefully it will arrive soon if it hasn't already.

Re: Challenge 5--Blue. Deadline: Sunday, 09/13/2020
The prizes have arrived!
The Alien, now freed from his blue slime, helps Benny with her prizes from the Blue Challenge. Benny was still in her blue costume, since I had taken the purple photo ahead of time. I didn't want to miss the flowers being in full bloom.
My cat Ozzy, the feline paper shredder, also helped with opening the envelope. We have to be careful not to leave anything important laying around. He's even shredded a manila folder. That's on top of eating shoe strings.
Benny models an adorable top and skirt by Ropitas Kawaii and she also got some adorable minis. She also sent me a nice card and a face mask with much nicer features than the simple ones I've made.
I was going to have Benny send off the Alien in his gumball ship with one of the minis, but I broke off a tail fin and that was the end of that. Maybe some other time.
Thanks, KiraKira, for the very nice outfit. I've been tempted to order from Ropitas Kawaii from Etsy and never quite got around to it. I didn't realize they made Dal size clothing, but I never asked. It's very nicely made and Benny will enjoy wearing and probably sharing it with the other Dals.

Glad they arrived—the outfit looks cute on Benny. I’m sorry to hear about the alien’s spaceship breaking a fin.
It’s funny that there was a mini sized Wet Ones in there—I can’t find human sized ones in any of our stores here—that’s still a much-hoarded item.

I've seen disinfecant wipes showing up here and there, but not specifically Wet Ones. At least Benny can kill viruses.
