Project 12~March: Interesting Perspectives~

The theme of interesting perspectives was challenging this month! There was lots to read up on for this and some of the things I tried (based off of the reading) didn’t exactly work out but we had fun trying it out lol

The shots below are inspired by this site about forced perspectives…here I am pouring Youngest out of a water bottle..kind of

Forced perspective was frustratingly hilarious! I also captured some things from the perspective of the pup….

Project 12 2013~Close Up Portraiture

This year I am once again participating in a year long monthly project with some very talented photographers from Clickin Moms . The theme for January is Close Up Portraiture which I played with while the pup was on guard for squirrels and Youngest was singing her heart out rather than working on her homework

She caught me !

Thanks for checking out my attempt at close up portraiture. Follow the circle round to Claire to see how things look close up in the UK!

P52 Week 46 Bedtime

I’m not sleepy, I have no idea what you are talking about.

Yep, definitely not sleepy that sunshine get’s her everytime!!!

New reflector

Oldest stayed home from school today sick but I did get my new reflector today! Youngest paused in her afterschool volleyball playing around to let me catch a few shots..

I have no clue what I’m doing, I have stiches in my clicker finger, and I stepped in a pile of fire ants! Other than that though I’m pretty happy with my first try lol and Youngest is always a good sport to help me out:

Pup stayed still for me to try with her as well, she doesn’t like to gold side very much even though I love that it shows the depth of her fur color, what a cutie!

Mine

Pup got a new squeaky toy….

pretty sure she loves it!

P52..catch up!

Things have been crazy crazy busy around here lately with all of the fall events in full gear. I have fallen a bit behind in my weekly project….just really too tired to pick up my camera when I get home from work and finish my “mom jobs” each night! Not really a good excuse but it’s all I’ve got.  I’m going to try to push myself through October to get back on track. I’m looking forward to next Sunday’s Clickin Walk sponsored through one of my favorite photography forums Clickin Moms to psych me up again!

SOOOOOO For catch up I’m going to pull from my archives

P52 week37: Sleep I actually did take some shots for this one the correct week but felt uncomfortable with the idea of posting them since my kiddos aren’t babies…images of babies sleeping don’t bother me, teens sleeping seems invasive in my opionion so instead you get my pup…she is a professional sleeper

P52 week 38: Shadows..the only shadows are the ones under my eyes, so I decided to sleep a little bit today and use an oldie but goodie for this week!

Next week’s theme is pink…with the Clickin’ Walk  and three girls in this household I should be able to get something!!! Fingers crossed that things slow down!

P52 week 36…PETS

This weeks project 52 theme is “Pets”. Our girl came into our life five years ago when we found her at the SPCA. She was turning 4 weeks old! 

“You can say any fool thing to a dog, and the dog will give you this look that
says, `My God, you’re RIGHT! I NEVER would’ve thought of that!’”
- Dave Barry

“The truth I do not stretch or shove
When I state
the dog is full of love.
I’ve also proved, by actual test,
A wet dog is
the lovingest.”
– Ogden Nash

We appreciate the joy and unconditional love she shares with us daily

P52: Leading Lines

This weeks challenge was “leading lines” if you’re curious as to why here you go. …”One of the tools you can use as a photographer to create a meaningful composition is to use leading lines. Leading lines are used to draw the viewer’s eye through a photograph. They are intentional or unintentional, natural lines created in the space of the photograph and are used to create a visual narrative in the composition. Leading lines are also used to draw your eye to a focal point in the shot that you would like to highlight“….We had so much fun with this, not to mention great conditions…beautiful 60 degree breezy day, bikes, pup, sunshine…I’ve got so many shots I can’t decide which one to submit because I love them all! Lucky for me I can put plenty here
