2012 Photo Challenge: Week 16

ByKristen Koster

Week 16 of our 365 Photo Challenge.

Happy Earth Day! I don’t know what draws me to photos of nature. On one hand, they can be “easy” and don’t require much thought or patience, well ok, with animals it can! On the other, they can also be just as tricky to pull off well. However, compared to people and buildings, I’m much more comfortable with flowers and landscapes. I’m sure practice is part of it and I should spend some time this year really stretching my skills.

What you see below are links to my flickr set for the photos I’m posting for this challenge. Click on any photo below to go to flickr and then you can navigate through the set with the “Previous” and “Next” arrows at the top.

Catching Up: Weekly Photos 06-08/52

ByKristen Koster

I’ve been rather quiet and off the net more than usual the past three weeks because my mom passed away suddenly on February 2nd and it’s been quite a shock and as you can imagine, posting my weekly photos was the last thing on my mind. This necessitated a trip back to Maryland where I…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 22

ByKristen Koster

Week 22 of our 365 Photo Challenge. So close to the halfway point. It was definitely an iPhone kind of week. Crazy schedule gone crazier with the next to last week of school and DH getting his last 3 wisdom teeth removed really zapped my creativity and focus this week. What you see below are…

A Regency Primer on Christmastide & New Year’s

ByKristen Koster

Christmastide Christmastide (the Christmas season from Christmas Eve or First Night through Twelfth Night and Epiphany) during the Regency Era seems to be more easily defined by the differences in traditions and what they didn’t have or do at the time rather than the specifics of what they did or didn’t. A quick survey of…

Research: Where Ya Wanna Go?

ByKristen Koster

This week for our How I Write series, my accountability group was asked, “If you could do anything for writing research, what would you do?” Honestly, this was a no-brainer for me. I’d head over to Suzi Love’s blog and pull up her category of posts for the Best Places to Visit that relate to…

My Writing Cave

ByKristen Koster

Compared to the old house, my new writing space isn’t much of a cave. I’m currently set up in one end of the living room. At the old house, we’d converted the formal dining room into my office space. Here, the formal dining room is set up as a library. Go figure. One of the…

ByKristen Koster

Week 28 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Please excuse the excess of puppy exuberance this week. It was Olivia’s first week home, so naturally she was our focus this week. She’s such a sweetie and definitely spoiled rotten already. She is sleeping in her crate at night, not with us, although she does demand cuddle…
