2012 Photo Challenge: Week 19

ByKristen Koster

Week 19 of our 365 Photo Challenge.

Didn’t do so well on preparation or intent this week. Not sure what the deal is, but I can’t seem to focus (no pun intended) on anything for very long. Writing and photography are both feeling more like a chore than fun, but at least with this, I’m following through, even if I’m relying on luck and finding some shots I like. Will try to do better next week.

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.

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 5

ByKristen Koster

Five weeks into the new year and this project. This week I found I kept putting off taking photos until it was too late and I didn’t have time/energy to make it come out like I wanted. Note to self, that doesn’t work as well. I also thought of a few different types of photographs…

A Regency Primer on Vauxhall Gardens

ByKristen Koster

With fireworks in the night skies this week as both Canada and the US celebrate their birthdays, I got to thinking about Vauxhall Gardens where fireworks were a common entertainment in the Georgian and Regency periods. During the Regency, the relatively cheap price of admission (about 3 shilling and sixpence during the early 19th century)…

Social Media: Where You’ll Find Me

ByKristen Koster

This week my accountability group’s How I Write series asks, “Which social media platforms do you do? Which do you prefer and why?” I’m not an extrovert by any means, but I can almost pretend to be one on the internet for short periods of time. I do have a tendency to lurk, but I…

  1. I don’t know much about photography, but I love close-up shots of plants. They’re such detailed things, aren’t they.

    Anyway, just stopped by to say congrats on getting RAOK blitzed!
