Week 8 Complementary Color

These were taken at Lowe's in the garden department with my iphone 5

What I've learned, it's not what you are using to shot the picture, it's the subject in the picture. 

I used Picasa to upload these, no photoshop magic here.

Week Seven - Laundry - Working in a Breeze

I've shut down the past few weeks and that's alright. I decided going into this project to make this ALL about ME and not about time, dates or weeks, so.. I'll be a bit off on my weeks and really who cares? 

I had my first experience with a photo contest and what I learned....I'm going to keep doing what I like and just let the rest fall where is may.

This is my photo,

Week 5 of 52 Week Photo Challenge - Nature

I'm going to be 100% honest, 

Nature is Soooo... out of my comfort zone. 

I have to force myself sometimes. And then BIRDS, I'm scared to death of them ??? But, here's my nature picture. 

He ate the fish, WHOLE and I missed the shot, probably a really good thing?

Week 4 - Part of a Whole

Rain Drops on Roses

I can be a bit flower NUTS. I love them and now living in a condo I really miss them. Always before in every home I've had a rose garden, totally crazy I know. 
I've asked our association here to add 3 rose bushes at the front of our condo,(my expense) but....
that's how they work, decisions, decisions. 

Had to do it again, would had NEVER asked !

Photo, just after rain, 

these drops are real

Week 1, My - Before and After

After the past weeks of rain here in Florida it was so nice to be outside yesterday. Husband has a little fishing boat and when he asks I always go.  I don't fish, I read, take pictures and sometimes even quilt. I have a huge bag I take with me and as he says, "you never know what she'll pull out"
We fish the same spots and it was so fun to see all the changes in nature over the past two weeks. 

This is my Before and After 

AFTER

The gentleman who started us on our camera journey has went with us on the boat and always says, "No birds on sticks"

But I love this one.  I think she was yelling at the young ones trying to fly. 

This is my

Before

Husband said, "get her close" 

and WOW ! ! 

I'm learning it's not HOW you shot a picture, 

it's all about WHAT you shot the picture of.
