A new assignment has been posted over at Scott’s place!
The subject: Your Hometown.
On your mark, get set, SHOOT! 🙂
The Photography Studio
“The Gift of an Ordinary Day”
My Mother sent a video to me today, and the message is important so I am sharing it here. It is a message I strive everyday to internalize. I think my photography has helped me practice this lesson…I find myself capturing the small moments more and more, and the big moments less and less. In fact, sometimes I purposely leave my camera home when I go to big events because I want to experience them “live” rather than through the lens of my camera. But I tend to find exquisite beauty in the little moments…those are the moments I want to remember yet fear I may someday forget. Moments like these….
Have a listen…”The Gift of an Ordinary Day” should resonate with all you parents out there. (You’ll also see Katrina Kenison’s blog added over in the blogroll.)
And Then He Was Three
We celebrated Mister’s third Birthday on Friday and again on Saturday. His new train table is begging to be photographed from a zillion different perspectives, but it will have to wait until my {insert swear word here} back is better. (I won’t bore you with the details.)
For now, you’ll have to settle for these. 🙂
White
Scott’s Challenge brought back memories of my overwhelmed college days. You remember what those were like, don’t you? If you were like me, every once in awhile you handed something in just to say you did it. You knew the quality was lacking but simply did not have the time to see to it differently. This is one of those assignments for me. Much as I wanted to submit something spectacular, I just couldn’t get my Mojo. So I settled for photographing mundane items around my home, trying to look at them from a different perspective. Here’s my feeble attempt at “White.”
Brrrrrr….
This is the INSIDE of my dining room window tonight.
My electric blanket is calling me.
