Sepia Saturday

This week watching NBC’s coverage of the Olympics and the segments on British culture. One segment showed people who still ride and even race penny farthings, the old bicycles with the big wheel in the front. Funny you never seen these featured in period dramas.

The first ones were introduced in the 1870s.

Here’s a video on how to get on a penny farthing:

Weekly Photo Challenge: Wrong

It’s wrong not to clean up

Because it’s wrong to do so in front of our house

Share a picture that means WRONG to you! 

New to The Daily Post? Whether you’re a beginner or a professional, you’re invited to get involved in our Weekly Photo Challenge to help you meet your blogging goals and give you another way to take part in Post a Day / Post a Week. Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

Here’s how it works:

1. Each week, we’ll provide a theme for creative inspiration. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog anytime before the following Friday when the next photo theme will be announced.

2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “Weekly Photo Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use a “postaday2012″ or “postaweek2012″ tag.

3. Subscribe to The Daily Post so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements. Sign up via the email subscription link in the sidebar or RSS.
