A Flickr group that is dear to my heart, mostly because there's a regular crowd of really lovely photographers - oh yeah, and because it's fun to see everyone's unique take on the unfolding sequence of new themes, is Shades of Inspiration.  Recently the last moderator of the group has turned over the reins to a new person - MOI!   I hope to shake things up a bit, enthuse the old crowd, encourage some new folk to join in the fun.

Every week or so there's a new theme to inspire you to go out and take photographs or share favorite photos you have in your personal collection.  We've worked our way through most colors or color combinations several times over, so I'm hoping to branch out into new visual inspiration - textures, moods, words.... who knows.

This week's theme, while I'm off enjoying a holiday, is a simple one:  Gray.

You can read the full theme announcement here.

And here is one of five photos (the daily limit) I put up today in the group files.

I hope to see your photos there soon.

I should be fast asleep in bed.  Instead I'm up playing with photos.  Which one/ones do you like best?  And why?
