Triptych

Triptych is the theme for this contest. All mediums are welcome to participate. Typically you see Triptychs of a single flower that is divided into 3 parts and framed. However you also see complete scenes that are likewise divided into 3 parts and framed. This isn't as hard as it may seem. Ideally the groupings fit together, meaning they flow into each other as a continuation, NOT 3 different pictures and NOT a collage. If you use a scene then it should be divided so that each image creates it's own image but together they are one scene. An example would be at a park. You have a bench and some trees on one side, you have a duck in the lake on the other side and in the middle a couple rowing a boat. Each one is an interesting scene and together it is also an interesting scene. Flowers are easier, as it is pretty common to display a portion of a flower. Don't be intimidated, give this a try. You can PM me if you would like some help in dividing the images. I don't plan on entering this contest so I can help anyone who needs it :)

Below are definitions courtesy of Wikipedia:

A triptych is a work of art or photography that is divided into three sections, or three carved panels that are hinged together and can be folded shut or displayed open. The middle panel is typically the largest and it is flanked by two smaller related works, although there are triptychs of equal-sized panels.
Photographic triptych is a common style used in modern commercial artwork. The photographs are usually arranged with a plain border between them. The work may consist of separate images that are variants on a theme, or may be one larger image split into three
The Art triptych form arises from early Christian art, and was a popular standard format for altar paintings from the Middle Ages onwards.
