VisDare 5: Obscure

Last week's more open-ended VisDare apparently worked some magic - not only did most of my repeat authors give their spin, but several newcomers as well! So in keeping with the more vague, mysterious, open-ended dares, I've picked the photo below for this next round.

(Don't worry, we'll be going back to quirky again soon enough! *laughs evilly*)

Those of you who are valiantly building on previous episodes - I look forward to how you work this lady into your tales!

As for the VisDare itself -- a figurative or literal interpretation is fabulous,

 just pull your reader in!

VisDare 4: Steps

WELCOME TO THE NEW AND IMPROVED VISUAL DARE!!

Okay. Last week's challenge was over-the-top quirky --- but all my VisDare participants came through with flying colors!!

To balance it out, we're going a bit more mysterious and open-ended this week; but I have every confidence that my VisDare Army will not disappoint!!

What's your take? Figurative or Literal - either is fabulous, just pull your reader in!

VisDare 1: Between

WELCOME TO THE NEW AND IMPROVED 

VISUAL DARE!

Um....okay. So not a lot has changed. That's the good news.

(Because I think we've got a good thing going, here.)

What has changed?

WORD COUNT. Because 100 words has proved so restrictive this past year, I am upping the word count to 150 words. That's not a huge increase, but it seems to be about average for that extra bit of wiggle room that most of my VisDare regulars need.

Of course, I know some of you go over the allotted word count regularly, anyway. 

(JB, I'm looking at you, sweetheart.) :D

If it's all posted to your blog, that's your prerogative. All I ask is that, if you choose to post your entry in the comments, that you keep it to the word count limit, so that all replies are easily accessible for everyone.

Any other changes?

Um.....only that I'll tweet upcoming challenges using the hashtag #VisDare.

That way I can get in those 3 extra characters if I'm trying to fit a lot into one tweet.

Otherwise - that's it!!

So here you go....our first VisDare for 2013!! --- and the first of many quirky photographs that I've slated for the coming year (right now all my VisDare challenges are scheduled through the end of April. Woo!! Go me!)

This week's challenge: BETWEEN
