e pluribus unum
September 3, 2014
This week's challenge selection is
e pluribus unum by Christine. Check out my pals for their
interpretations on this theme:
Fishing Guy,
Katney,
Imac,
Lew, and
Christine Anne.
The Seal of the United States of America includes the Latin phrase
e pluribus unum. That means, "out of many, one." It may also be translated, "One from many." My first thought for the theme would be a macro of the phrase as it appears on our smallest coin. On the dime, it is a little more than a centimeter across. One of my favorite things in life is a healthy lawn. That one lawn is actually made up, not just of many blades, but also out of many individual plants that are groomed to look like one unit. A lush, green carpet of bare-footin' goodness! (The rainbow in the header was real. What a bonus!)

| It's impossible for me to read this tiny Latin phrase on a dime without help. |

| Out of many drops, one rain. |
 |
| Out of many tissue papers, one flower. |
 |
| Out of many seeds, one overgrown lawn. |
 |
| Out of many bricks, one wall. |

Neat show here my friend, with your Lawn with rainbow and post pics good work
Interesting takes Craver, loved the dime.
Nice images to portray the theme. I agree--what a bonus that rainbow was!
I really like your take on this theme. You did a great job of showing how many individual 'things' make one entity.
Nicely done! Time to get bigger coins and to crank up the lawn mower (same problem here with a rainy week).
