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…
We’re up to week 21 of our 365 Photo Challenge! Not a very exciting week for you guys, but I had fun trying to catch the water from the fountains the way in a way I liked and wasn’t overblown with lots of purples in the highlights. Lots of iPhone pictures this week too. We’re…
This past week was the twentieth week of our 365 Photo Challenge. Took some chances on photos that paid off this week. Then there were the ones that didn’t. =) But since, I’m listening to Neil Gaiman’s graduation address for the University of the Arts Class of 2012, I’m going to not call them “mistakes”….
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…
This week for our How I Write series, my accountability group asked, “Dialogue, narrative, exposition, or description? What are your favorite parts of writing and why? Your least favorite and why? What do you do to make your least favorite parts more attractive or easier?” Deceptively Easy Parts of Writing When I am able to…
Week 18 of our 365 Photo Challenge. I’m still taking pictures, I just realized I forgot to post this summary of last week on Sunday. We were busy trying to watch Iron Man 2 before going to see The Avengers. Fun movies! Definitely worth a viewing. The Avengers was packed with lots of action and…
Week 17 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Honest, I did take pictures in landscape mode this week! I just didn’t like any of them as well as these. We’re almost at the 1/3rd mark and I definitely feel more comfortable with the controls on my camera. Now, it’s just going to be a matter of…
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,…
Week 15 of our 365 Photo Challenge. This week doesn’t offer as much variety as last week’s set, but I was playing with similar subjects but different lighting. The rain made for some very interesting clouds in the evenings as well. What you see below are links to my flickr set for the photos I’m…
Week 14 of our 365 Photo Challenge. This week marks the 100th photo posted for the year. As I mentioned, we were on vacation last week for the kids’ Spring Break. We flew across the country to Maryland and stayed near where I grew up. Last year, our daughter and I did the American History…
