The thinking behind this weeks challenge comes from 2 reasons. A telling off for not cutting the grass yesterday & its Wimbledon.
So your challenge this week (which I think is quite difficult) is simply show me the macro beauty of grass in any of its forms.

The Rules are:

1. The challenge is just for fun.
2. All images must be taken after the theme is announced.
3. The challenge runs from 8pm on the Sunday and runs until 8pm the following Sunday.
4. Only one upload per member.
5. Please feel free to comment on the entries once judging is complete.
6. The person who hosts is the judge for that week challenge and the judge’s decision is final.
7. The winner gets to create, run and judge the challenge for the following week.
8. Have fun

So the following week could be anything psychedelic.

But back to grass. As I've be put out to grass, and with plenty of time on my hands, it shouldn't be impossible to get something in

Still a few hours to go in this weeks challenge so as your watching the tennis and cricket keep thinking grass.
Not the F1 though that's tarmac.

Lots of grass outside the asphalt in the TdF, which is what I am watching...

And I managed to avoid pretty much all of it by going out for the day for a spot of lunch with Mr PL! Grin

But I did manage to get a shot of some grass in yesterday. Just had enough time to process it. Phew!

Right time is up.

OK back with a decision and the winner will not be happy, the grass is not greener on the other side of the fence.
A great selection for me to pick from considering the single subject matter.

But I have chosen this week to go with Cattyal and her ornamental grass. Congratulations Alison 🏆

Thanks One, Thanks All.
