It’s a hot day, and these tourists seem to rest on a bench at the ruins of the Alhambra castle in Granada, Spain. Or have they had an argument and can’t talk to each other?
‘Show us just enough of your subject to peek our interest.’
Which of these photos do you think are the best match for the challenge?
That’s this week’s call for the Photo Challenge.

They are all intriguing…in different ways. But as I often carry around a camera…I notice there are more things on the LCD-screen than shown in the photo of that man. That makes me curious!

Thanks, Leya. Indeed, your perception is right. And in hindsight, I should have cropped this photo a bit more to highlight this.

They all work well, Lucile. I really like the guy with the camera shot, but my favourite is the canal… probably just because I love canals 🙂 🙂

Hi Jo, great to see you around. How’s life in Portugal? Warmer climes?
Well, I share the love with you. This was a photo from my iphone and not from my camera, but I couldn’t resist to post it.
Hugs.

Mostly pretty good, Lucile, thanks. The weather is changing a little but it’s still around the 20s so I’m not complaining. 🙂

These are wonderful, Lucile. My favorite, though, is the one under the bridge.
(Just FYI, what you want in the title is “pique” rather than “peek” unless you’re making a pun.) 🙂

This one is getting more traction than the others! I so love this city.
Thanks for pointing out the difference between peek and pique. I had not intended to make a pun but just made a mistake, but you gave me an idea, and I left it there but with quotation marks. Thank you so much, Janet. It’s always good to learn from a native speaker of English. Much appreciated.

My pleasure, Lucile. You speak English so well that I forget it’s not your native language.

Good shot of the Amsterdam canal, from below. Peek is such a descriptive work and reminds of when playing with children, peek-a-boo 🙂

Thanks, Terri. I struggled when looking for photos that would fit this challenge and that’s why I posted many. I had fun looking for it though.

Not sure if any of these peeks piques my interest in the subjects. Perhaps leaving out some of the information (show only the hats of the two women or only portions of the scenes, like maybe the LCD of the camera and part of the man’s hand.
Strictly by the description, the last one gives a peek of a much larger scene.

Great point. That’s why I posted so many. I wasn’t happy with all the choices but the LCD one plus the cathedral felt closer.
Thanks!

I like them all, but the Amsterdamwerks probably intrigues me most—something about the way the bridge blocks part of the view? I also really liked the door (2nd most intriguing for me).

I hadn’t expected this Amsterdam’s photo would draw anynone’s attention, just because I’m partial to beauty of the city I love. I’m happy to hear that you like it too, Sandi.

Peak or peek? Either one can be used for the lady hiding her face. She cannot resist the temptation to look at you, and that is funny. Then there is the low-cut neckline with… Enough said.
