    Week 11: Photographer’s Choice

    18 March 2019 / 0 Comments

    Welcome to week eleven of my Project 52: 2019 Edition. If you’d like to see the prompts that I’m using, read this post. This week’s prompt is Photographer’s Choice. OK, ok, I know I’ve skipped a few weeks but, hopefully, I’m back. Anyway, this should be the beginning of week twelve, but I wanted to share this photo so… The Hubs and I celebrated our 24th anniversary a week ago and The Hubs had roses delivered to my job. Flowers, candy, a balloon, and a teddy bear. So sweet. I took a lot of pictures of the roses because I couldn’t take them home because The Hubs is terribly allergic.…

    Welcome to week five of my Project 52: 2019 Edition. If you’d like to see the prompts that I’m using, read this post.

    Welcome to week five of my Project 52: 2019 Edition. If you’d like to see the prompts that I’m using, read this post. Anyway, as promised, I’m showing the Straight Out of Camera {SOOC} image too, so you can see what I started with and how it ended. SOOC Nikon D7500 | 35mm |f /1.8 | 1/160 | ISO 400 This was taken outside in my backyard, late evening, overcast skies. The Hubs was working on the RV and Squeekerz was begging to go back inside. He’s a diva and won’t sit on the grass or the concrete. Camping with him is a lot of fun. That being said, I…

    Abandoned Egg {This or That Thursday}

    6 September 2012 / 4 Comments

    The hubs found the nest under the lid on our propane tank. I’m sure by now that there’s probably nothing in the shell but y’all know my fear of birds (shell or not) so I didn’t touch anything to find out. And, omg, so many feathers on the nest! I’m linking up with: Deb Duty Photography ~ This or That Thursday

    Moss Covered Tree Trunk {Shoot. Edit. Submit.}

    6 January 2012 / 15 Comments

    This is probably my favorite picture from my photo walk this week. I dunno, there’s something about fallen trees and moss… I want to know what felled the tree. Was it a bad storm? Did the tree rot? And how long did it take the moss to grow? I know, my thoughts are completely random but what are you gonna do? These are the things that go through my head… I’m linking up with Misty and Kim for Shoot. Edit. Submit. To join in the fun, all you have to do is: Photo must be taken this week (Saturday ~ Friday) Only one entry per person “Shoot. Edit. Submit.” button…
