Some very talented writers have given time and talent to challenge writers to take a leap away from other projects--be challenged by the prompts they create. This week's photo prompts are from Susan at Of Every Moment.com. Two very different photos are posted at Elephant's Child. Please pop over and write something. You may post it in her comment section or at your own site, linking it back to her.
