For this challenge, get out there and take a picture demonstrating the concept of focus. Depending on your skill level or type of camera, tinker with the manual settings, use the auto focus feature, or play around with an app. Some ideas:
- Snap a photo of something or someone in focus, against a blurred background.
- Share a panorama or landscape in sharp focus, in which you can see details far away.
- Use a camera app to force focus (or blur) in an experimental way.
- Take multiple photos of the same scene or subject using different aperture settings and publishing the results.

Eramo di San Giacomo
Free Verse
San Giacomo’s Hermitage
On my Sunday walk,
I looked upon the mountain
contemplating
this place of meditation.
In by gone years there lived,
a group of mystic persons
looking at the world below,
in solemn observation
of their religious laws.
They thus lived secluded
and built they there
their home
and dedicated
their hermitage
to the Saint James…
now abandoned
in a world that no longer
meditates.
Ciao! And have a look at other great posts here!

Thank you so much for the pingback!
Your poem is so sad and somber. It fits beautifully with the photo challenge…focused and yet blurred. Very well done.
Thanks Cubby. It is kind of sad that beautiful building up on the side of the mountain. We rarely think about it of course, but I’ve a lively imagination and I can just imagine how it might have been.
