Grass. Cows ruminate it, athletes play games on it, kids roll in it, home owners mow it, dogs eat it when they're sick and innumerable creatures live in it. But is it art? We're about to find out but I'm confident that my fellow Steemians will again fill our next virtual gallery with worthy treasures!
Here's a Reminder of The Galleries That You've Already Helped Create!
- Art Exhibit of Manhole Covers!
- Your Photographs of Streets!
- Damaged Asphalt Gallery
- Tree Bark Virtual Gallery
- Stones
The Mundane Star of The Show For Round Six is Grass!
Whether it's a field, an individual blade, an insect on the grass, a freshly mowed lawn showing patterns, or scattered clippings, as long as it looks like art it could end up in our next gallery! I want you to feel as free as a bird in your choices as you soar and swoop looking for the right perspective, angle and lighting!
This time we're upping the ante and there will be at least 12 SBD in prizes but you know The Old Dog by now and it's usually much more! As our galleries increase in popularity so will the prizes!
Here Are a Few Examples For You!
These examples above are all from our friends at pixabay.com!
I took this one outside my warehouse 30 minutes ago...ribbons of droplets! You can do better!

As soon as bleujay figures out how to import a photograph into a comment....I have just the one.
I have inquired of meesterboom....it should be sorted in no time....right? ^_^
It looks like englishtchrivy has not come this way...she will surely want to participate.
All the best. Cheers.

Hope you guys like this image.
I like it, I like it!
Thanks:)
Thats a great image very nice
Thank you :)
Your welcome
Here's my entry @kus-knee - autumn grass a la art.
https://steemit.com/mundaneart/@countrygirl/mundane-as-art-round-6-grass
This is lovely @countrygirl....very inspiring. ^__^
aw...thanks so much @bleujay....your encouragement means a lot!
I like it, I like it!
Oh, whew...good. It's a little more artsy than grass grass so I wasn't sure. Thanks!
I also wanted to tell you that I like that you have the entries in the comment section - it's way easier to see everyone's photo than visiting a gazillion blogs.
here's my entry...taken today during a walk in my hometown
Hmmm......interesting!
Great theme! This is my Entry
Hope you like it:-))))
Ooooh so cool. Are those painted stockings?
No it's one of my bodypaintings on a black woman :-D
Aha very grassy!
;-D
Very creative @carolineschell! Grass everywhere :)
Thank you very much! :-)))))
Well, it took me long enough but I did it!!
Night grass!!
I was going to call it night soil... ;)
Lovely....most unusual...@meesterboom.
Finally. Now we have a contest!
Lol, it's on!! :0)
Oh my, @livelifefullest! This looks like a contender!
I like your contests, and do my best!
the detail in the drops is wonderful
That is awesome.
This grass was growing next to Dragons Mouth Spring in Yellowstone National Park. I loved all the colors.
I really like this!
Thanks! I was fascinated by it. I suppose it was all the minerals in the hot springs that caused the grasses to have such a variety of colors. I took several quick photos, and then got away from the smelly clouds of sulfuric gases!
Risking life and limb to get the perfect shot. A true pro!
The muddy belching spring itself was not at all photogenic, so I had to look for a photo somewhere, since we had battled through tourists to see it!
This is my first contribution in this great contest. I hope you like it

Thank you:)
You took some lovely photos and I checked the beautiful ones in your post as well. I'm quite sure though that it isn't grass. Am I wrong?
Oh yes, after posting I remembered that it really is not grass. I am aware that this error leaves me out of the contest, for the next I will be aware of every detail. Thanks for voting :)
You can still enter. There are 5 days left! :)
That's great! I will try. Thank you:)
I'm so happy!

What a nice idea for a competition! Here is my entry:
All the bokeh bubbles on this one were achieved in camera and I didn't change the photo much in photoshop.
That's a beauty!
Thanks, I'm glad you think so! :)
Incredible Photograph.
Thanks! :)

Glad to hear that! :)
I love this one! Very artistic and magical. Soft bokeh effect.
Thank you, I'm pleased to read you like it! :)

OK my friend... This is my grass entry
https://steemit.com/mundaneart/@richq11/mundane-art-my-grass
Hi Rich, I like your photo and I'd like to out it in the gallery but it's very low resolution. Any chance of sending the same picture with higher resolution?
Let me see what I can do...
Let me see what I can do... I hope this is better- it's 14 degrees out and I think the lens might be fogging!
Very artistic @richq11!
Thank you my friend... I try not to let being autistic hold me down!
The world around us keeps much more secrets that we can see normally by our eyes. Try to look at it through microscope or macro-lens. You will see many beautiful things
Here is a autumn goldenhour shot of a grass growing at Curonian spit, Lithuania
Enjoy :)
https://steemit.com/bescouted/@axeman/autumn-in-the-micro-world
Nicely done!
Your galleries are such a great idea! I think I have some grassy photos for this next gallery, let's have a look. :)
I'm loookimg forward to what you can dig up or maybe you'll come up with something special just for this occasion!
excellent the proposal for this week dear friend @ kus-knee, you see that I can find in our family albun that can share.
thank you very much for these fun challenges

Interesting picture!
thank you so much. but lack of up votes my entry
I feel your frustration. It takes time to integrate, make connections and gain a following. You are doing the right thing by entering contests and it is of utmost importance to leave meaningful comments.
Do you promote your posts on steemit.chat and on the Steemit facebook groups?
Those are very helpful tools for new Steemit users.
All the best to you @teukudianaulia!
thank you so much for the idea, I will try it. I really appreciate that. And thanks again for the contest..
thanks again you up voted mine. That means so much to me, I really really do appreciate that.
such a cool perspective, almost an ants eye view
haha yeah thank you sir.. glad you said cool
YOur welcome :)
That's great, dear doggy! I love the green shades of grass, though here are frozen now. I'll take a look in my huge collection.
Frozen grass is very distinctive and it could look good dressed in white!
https://steemit.com/mundaneart/@vee2180/nice-looking-stones
Your entry is marvelous and I LOVE it! That was our previous challenge. Please send us one of grass for this round. We still have many things to explore on this subject.
WELCOME here and please come again!

This is a nice entry for our pending gallery. Thanks!
Editing is allowed and even encouraged. Thanks for the submission!
This is a bit more than just editing, haha, but good to know you'll accept it. I'll keep trying to think laterally on future contests too.
Great!
wow, this is a tough one, I'll have go out tomorrow and photograph some grass. Maybe this one would work
Looks like grass to me nice one
just thinking the mushroom might detract from the actual subject matter!
Hmm Not for me but for someit may I guess its a matter of personal preference
thank you @tattoodjay for your input, I appreciate it
Your welcome mate
Very interesting! Grass with a statue in it!
these little mushrooms pop up after the rain and I love taking photos of them. Thanks @kus-knee
