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!

OoOooo it's that time again...


1. Leading lines, also POTW.

This was a fun spontaneous shot, taken at a trip this week to our favorite local pond. Here's Maddie of course striking a pose in between feeding the ducks :)

2. Something comfortable.

After consulting with my much esteemed photography assistant...Madelynn Marie...When asked, "what the heck can we photograh that is comfortable?" Inwhich she replied "we MUST take a picture of me and my blankie!" How could I refuse, after all she is my *go-to* girl :D

3. Feet.  Well,  at first I didn't think I could get anything remotely interesting until I started chasing darling daughter around the house with my camera, here's a few, I just simply could not pick one!

4. Sight.

Not sure what to photograph for this topic...I shot darling husband's cool glasses a few weeks ago for "glass," & didn't want to repeat that. Then I took some pics of my contact lens cases, didn't like that . Until I fell upon this picture the other day... Maddie had been calling me & I didn't hear her. Of course she began to get upset...(poor girl) When I finally arrived in her room she, says so sadly "Mommy, how come you didn't hear me calling you?" The first thing that came to my mind that, wow, I had been a *sight* for these sore, sore eyes!

I should call this scavenger hunt "ode to Madelynn!" Seriously, how is it that she made her way in 4 out of 5 of this topics?! You could even count the last one technically, they were *her* lolly-pops.

    What an obliging model you have! I love the leading lines one, it has a very "fall" feeling to me (it can't be fall yet where you are, can it? That would not be fair, we hit 90 degrees here yesterday!) All the shots are great though, it's hard to pick a favorite!
