‘Eternal Light” I am pretty much a purist when it comes to photography. I do very little editing of my photos – cropping, black and white conversion and sometimes a little boost of contrast and saturation. Somehow doing too much feels like cheating. I’m not sure how I developed this attitude; it is probably one that I need to overcome, but I’m not there yet. That being said, this photo is obviously heavily edited. Today’s prompt not only asked…
“Behind the Umbrella” What happens behind the umbrella stays behind the umbrella.
“Chow Hound” This is Adidas and his bowl. I’d like to say that in his mind this is the most important bowl in the house. But, the truth of the matter is that any bowl that has food in it at the time, his or someone else’s, is the most important bowl to him. Harley’s bowl, the cat’s bowl, a human’s bowl – they are all fair game according to this boy.
“Empty Chairs” There is nothing really to be upset about in my world today, but I am a little sad to be going back to work full force tomorrow. I love teaching, but I have really enjoyed my time off over this break. I have had so much freedom to do the things I want to do with no deadlines hanging over my head. I have read, taken pictures, napped and just had time to be. “Be time” is…
‘Erin” I am terrible with posing people for shots. I do OK with the stuff behind the camera but I am not comfortable posing people. That is why I always have to rely on Erin when I need a people shot. She is a natural in front of the camera. Having said that, I have to confess that tonight I photographed Erin and Edgar together and didn’t do such a great job. The light was weird and created some harsh…
‘Siesta” You have heard of the princess and the pea…meet the vaquero and the aquacate.
“Blue – Only On the Outside” Today should have been an easy day as far as the daily prompt goes. Blue. Blue is my favorite color. I love blue. Blue anything. I have lots and lots of blue things. That is where the difficulties started. What direction to go? What to choose? Rather than make a real choice, I finally decided that I would do a self portrait because I like blue so much. That was kind of all encompassing….
“Eats Shoots and Leaves…and Berries” After the seriousness, and perhaps edginess depending on your perspective, of yesterday’s photo, today I am back to the whimsical me. I will admit it. I am obsessed with the Lego minifgures. They are so much fun and in the big scheme of things, a fairly benign obsession. The newest series of 16 figures, which is supposed to accompany the upcoming Lego movie, was released in the stores last Sunday, I think. After my…
“A Christmas Train Rife” Here is December 30th’s post, a little late…more on that in the next post. All is good!!
