I was thrilled to receive the following "Double" photos from my friend, Dolly Salazar.
"Finally, my entries for this week's/month's subject! (Look, I get lazy about sending my film to be developed in the dead of winter.) These are all (c) 2009.
Doppelganger was an accident, I was actually out trying to get pictures of boats (none of which were very interesting).
The two pumpkins in Two Pumpkins have been sitting on our deck since October; this was taken in January. I now believe I can cryogenically freeze myself in my own backyard.
And I was so inspired by your Double Entendre that I used up a whole roll of film on macro shots of the naughty bits of fruits, Sour Nipple being my favorite."

Double Posts Re-Opened!!
Double Entendre (c) 2008 by Tina M. Harris
Okay, here's the deal: I have obviously not posted a new word yet. Call it laziness, blame it on the fact that I have been under the weather ... whatever. The thing is, I am trying to get myself on a schedule with these things and so far I have failed miserably. In any case, I have decided to extend the deadline for you to submit your "Double" photos (and if you have already submitted something, but want to send another photo -- or two -- here's your chance!) The new deadline is now Sunday, February 1st at 5 p.m.
Oh good, you are still reading. That is encouraging!
I plan to post a new word on Monday, February 2nd -- honest -- so don't hesitate! Email your poetic license photo to me at poeticlicensephotoblog@hotmail.com and share your interpretation of the word "Double" today!

Time Enough by Helen Bascom
Time Enough (c) by Helen Bascom
"The piece I have attached for the word challenge DOUBLE is titled Time Enough. It was inspired by the first season Twilight Zone episode, Time Enough At Last.
I achieved this result by shooting through a toy kaleidescope in a dark setting with a low level spot light on the clock face." -- Helen Bascom
All I can say is I am doubly pleased with this entry! For starters, Helen chose my absolute favorite "Twilight Zone" episode as her inspiration for this beautiful image, and then she used a technique that never in a million years would have occurred to me!
Thank you, Helen, for being our first submission in 2009. I am looking forward to lots more inspiring photographs in the days and weeks (and months!) to follow!!
