MY TAKE ON PHOTOGRAPHY

"The reason why we want to remember an image varies: Because we simply 'love it', or dislike it so intensely that it becomes compulsive, or because it has made us realize something about ourselves, or has brought about some slight change in us. Perhaps the reader can recall some image after seeing of which has never been quite the same."

Scavenger Hunt!

Here we are, it's Sunday already. Where the heck did this week go!?



Here is our first item.."Mood" also POTW...Maddie of course, in one of her moods that day she had been upset and was gazing out the window..pondering what ever it is that 5 year old ponders... I was glad to have captured this moment, I really do love this shot of her...

 "Something Masculine." Darling husbands dumb-bells.

And of course can't have something masculine, without having "Something Feminine." I decided with this one, to practice self portrait...so here is my favorite shirt, paired with my favorite necklace.

Next up was "First or Last Initial." I decided to sketch a picture of the letter J...as I just simply couldn't find a letter J to shoot. & drawing is my other passion, so why not just create a J myself!

Lastly "Architecture." Here is a shot of a pretty building from our recent trip to Colonial Williamsburg :)
