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 Sunday!

Still waiting for some nice weather to get out to conquer these scavenger hunts... these indoor shots are getting to be a bit challenging! Still not getting out of the 40's/50's here in Jersey, where is spring?? I want to shoot some flowers or some green grass or the wind blowing in my daughter's hair, anything! Sorry for the vent...I shall carry on now with this weeks items...

Here are my interpretations :0)

High Key
027

This was a a tough topic, although I like this shot, I'm thinking the pedals are still a bit too blown for my taste.

SC

I can't help but post this one of Maddie, (which I'm sure you all have seen before!) it's one of my favorite shots...at the time, not realizing that it was a *high key* shot.


Bedroom
124_edited-1.psd

See this is why I so enjoy scavenger hunt, because I would have otherwise not captured Maddie here in all her sillyness of her bed... I've always admired her little knick knacks & oddites souroundering her when I give her a kiss at night. (All her doing by the way) I've never thought to phogograph it. & to top it off, look at that outfit, this is her father's soft ball jersey she wears as a nightgown, too sweet for words :0)



Something Tiny
065


Off in a Distance
430

From the archives, can you tell, I'm yearning for warm weather :/ Ahh..I can't even imagine how glorious it would be to feel the hot sun sun & sand of the beach right now!



Stripes
089

Here again with my extension tubes...loving them...just a ribbon from my teddy bear :)

Happy Sunday :D





Next Week's Items:
Motion
"Waiting to Click" (Exploring with a Camera prompt - this follows the idea that sometimes we have to wait for just the right moment to get a particular shot)
In Fashion
Animal's Perspective
Many

    I love your shots!! The sunflower has great texture to be a high key shot.

    The bedroom shot is so precious. You should consider linking your cutie up with us for Quarterly Top 5 http://ambocullum.blogspot.com/2011/03/march-quarterly-top-5-link-up-and-give.html
