was kind enough to announce the search today, she even put some of my pictures up!
(She too kind, I think her's are better!)
Since she's on top of PPS 2010 I figured I had better get with the program and get a link post up.
I think I'm all caught up. If anyone has a post up that I missed, please let me know.
Perfect Photo Search 2010 or PPS 10
Time to get started!
I know it's cold and I don't plan on getting out much yet, but it can't hurt to have the topic, right?
First-
CLOCKS
(Seedsower's choice)
It can be any type of time piece, all of it or part of it...
Try to capture the perfect CLOCK picture.
and
second-
HORIZON LINES.
There can of course be a subject or subjects in the photo...
as long as the HORIZON LINE is integral to the picture...
the HORIZON LINE has to be essential to making it a great shot!
What is the PERFECT PHOTO SEARCH?
I'm glad you asked!
I know, almost all of my friends know, but just in case there is still one out there who doesn't...
It is a topic I choose every year,
sometimes by myself and sometimes with the help of friends.
It gets me through those times when the photographic inspiration just isn't flowing...
I always have that one thing to look for when I can't think of anything I want to take pictures of.
The first year I opened my search up to share my topic with other Xangans, the topic was DOORS...
Last year we chose two, CIRCLES and FACES IN THINGS.
Throughout the year when you take a picture of a CLOCK or a HORIZON LINE...
User tag me on the post, so I know it's up... (that will make it easier)
I will then link your post so everyone who wants to play along can see.
At the end of the year we will all lay it all out there and show everyone your own personal visions of the essence of a HORIZON LINE and/or a CLOCK!
Happy hunting!
Pop took Cooper to Lansing this weekend for a geocaching event and some quality Grandpa time.
They met my Sister and Nephew Sam there, everyone spent the night at my Aunt and Uncle's house.
I share with you my Aunt Mary's face book status from this morning...
Ok the conversation went like this. Jay with my five year old nephew Cooper.
Cooper: uncle jay how did the water get on the floor?
Jay: I kicked the dog bowls and spilled it.
Cooper: damn
Jay: what did you just say?
Cooper: I'm going to change that.
I have been assured that everyone left the room before they laughed...
We had a wonderful Valentines dinner at my sisters house yesterday.
The spread, shrimp, ham, mashed potatoes, LOVE potion and more!
The kids table.
My sister and my Rents!
D is giving me a look because she was trying to eat and I had a camera in her face... I don't know WHY she would give me a look, you would think she'd be used to it by now...
My sister inherited her flair for the holidays from my Grandma J, she loved going all out too.
D put one of Gram's Vday decorations on the table.
My hubby and my brother in law, the pug tamer...
It was a good day, a great day even, how could it not be with good food and family!
Today some of us are geocaching, some of us are going to the movies and some of us are being good and going to church like we're supposed to!
I hope you all have a GREAT valentines day!
I'm still playing around with my new lens.
This is a tree farm that hasn't gotten around to taking down the big guy yet.
I'm finding the lens a little hard to get used to. (Not in a bad way.)
You can't tell but I was right in front of him. That stake in the ground was beside me...
This is Torch lake in Alden.
I love the flairs I was getting from the sun.
I know they aren't great pictures.
It was just fun taking them and I thought I would show you guys what I was up to.
This weekend I get to test my new toy out on Detroit city!
I can't wait!
I have a new toy.
A fish eye lens for my camera.
The obligatory feet picture.
I haven't gotten to use it much yet, but I did get to harass the kids a little with it.
Cooper and Grandma
Charlie face...
He is going to hate that I posted this.
I was trying to get more curve to the trees... I need to play with it more to figure out how to use it advantageously.
I don't think I've ever posted a picture of the bakery before so...
Here's the bakery.
I know it's kind of a silly thing, but I've always wanted a fisheye.
I'd considered buying a toy camera, but I hated the idea of going the whole film route, I am a digital gal through and through.
It was well worth the thirty dollars it cost me. I will get that in enjoyment from it in no time.
What kind of toys do you have?
I didn't realize I had let so long go by...
Cooper and I had a date tonight. We went to Sparky's diner and had greasy hamburgers, deep fired mushrooms and a giant chocolate shake with a cherry on top.
As I sat there watching my five year old try to lick whipped cream off of his forehead, I wanted my camera... I thought, what a nice blog this would make...
Of course I didn't have my camera... *sigh*
I'm happy about the fact that I wanted to blog anyway.
Have you ever had a period of blogging burnout?
