Honestly, for this challenge, my mind went blank. I know I have a couple of convergence shots but I’ve shared them ad nauseam. I created a few of my own… As things tend to happen, I bet once this is done and I’m looking through photos for other stuff, the perfect convergence shot will leap at me.. Haha!

Once I got into it, I kept going and created a whole bunch more. I hope you like them. In case you are wondering which tools I used, I used Pixlr Express Cosmic Geometry, Pick Monkey Focal Zoom and a few others editing options, and Photoshop. The photos were mine and ditto the drawings.

The world is being re-shaped by the convergence of social, mobile, cloud, big data, community and other powerful forces. The combination of these technologies unlocks an incredible opportunity to connect everything together in a new way and is dramatically transforming the way we live and work. Marc Benioff

Here are some more creations and these were from some of the ones above. I also added the full quote from Benioff which I think is apropos to the challenge. Have a great week ahead!

My fellow bloggers were equally creative with their selections. Check out how others interpreted the theme below.

This post was inspired by a prompt from WP Daily Post: Weekly Photo Challenge: Converge  This week,explore the ways lines and shapes can converge in interesting ways through photography. You can take the theme in a literal or an abstract direction, as you see fit — from a photo of a byroad merging into a busy highway to an image of an airport terminal where people from all over the world form hectic, ephemeral communities.

Positive Motivation Tip: Find the vanishing points around you. If you can’t find them, create your own… Be solution oriented.

    I’m not entirely sure what I was looking at there. But they were gorgeous and would be really pretty blown up and framed!

    Absolutely gorgeous, love the colors in this, vibrant and beautiful!

    I love the message conveyed by this photo challenge. Often, creating solutions is something that most of us tend to forget. We tend to get so comfortable in our comfort zones that we fail to create new options or new ways to make life easier.

    PS. I love the patterns and all the colors too. Keep up the good work!

      Hi Aisha, sorry for the delayed reply. I’ve had a ton of feedback and held them in moderation so I can respond carefully. I used advanced features on Picmonkey and Pixlr Express.

    You, Eliz have always inspired so many of your readers, and with your new theme and all the new possibilities coming soon, converging photo’s seem to work very well in my spiritual life. Transformation is more like what I see. Keep up the great work. Jackie

      Dear Jackie, Thank you for your kind words. You have always been a blessing to others. May you be equally enriched. TY! 🙂

    Very cool. I love playing around in photoshop. Did you use any other software programs? Did you take a photo and manipulate it or create the file in the software?

    I love to use photo manipulation software as well as it is amazing how playing around with effects can create beautiful images. Good job x
