Please stop discussing the current challenge. You may inadvertently mention a subject or technique someone has used, their photo will then be worthless.
For instance: a macro of the thin edge of highly polished blade - a view from the top of a building (maybe even zoomed) - or perhaps an acrobat on a high wire taken from the wire's POV - or...
I need some clarification regarding the open challenge topic "On the edge" because English isn't my native language.
It's stated:
"There are many boundaries in our world. Create a photograph that speaks to these transitions, borders, edges."
Is the term "on the edge" figuratively to be seen as
- standing/being at a transition/border/edge and the transition/crossing will be made definitively
Or is it also
- standing/being at a transition and the transition might be made, but also the way back is possible.
And what about "on the cutting edge"? Does it belong here too?
All ways you saw the theme are rights. Edge can be read as border, contour, corners, limits or behaviors as Imagineer had talked. It opens a wide spread of subjects, from places to people, sports to still lifes and any others. Try to think in physical limits to the subjects when it is a person or things that represents a limit itself.
When you shot the edge of the subject must be clear, obvious! Do not left your picture to be interpreted by a voter!
The rules also talk about edge as boundary and certainly that could even be natural edges: river bank, cliff, beach, mountain. We use the words "on edge or edgy" to mean nervous, anticipatory, waiing to jump from a plane would work in two ways...(I thought I would give that one away so I don't have to think asbout doing it- lol)

Shall I shut up Rob? ;)
As you've just given away the details of three shots I've taken please feel to continue :(
