Sofia’s challenge is to feature the 5 Elements of Wuxing, a Chinese philosophy – water, fire, earth, wood, and metal. We can focus on just one element or try to get all five in one image. The following image features four of the elements. I tried but I couldn’t find one with all five.
Many thanks to our host Sophia for the challenge Lens-Artists #327 – 5 Elements

Nancy, thank you so much! I’m glad you liked the bridge image. It was fun finding images with more than one element. Have a great week!

Sunset over the metal bridge would have done it, given the sun is one large fire. Grin. But I loved the sunset you did provide!

Egidio, thank you so much. It was hard to choose just a few images with water, wood and earth because I have so many. I’m glad you like the ones I chose.

Beautiful river sunrise. And I always love photos of the headwaters. My family camped near Itasca for decades. Memories.

Marie, we camped at Itasca to see the headwaters twice. The second time was with our grandchildren. It was so fun to see them walking across those rocks and wading in the water.

Thanks Tina! I was on a quest to get all five elements in one photo but I had to settle for four. That sky over the Mississippi was spectacular to see.

Goof choice of photos. I’m sure somewhere in the thousands of photos, that some day you will come across one that has all five.
