White: Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge of Pick One Color

I truly adore all colors. I have my favorite, red. But the colors of the rainbow inspire me. All the shades, mutations, and the brightness cheer me.

But for this challenge I wanted to share my love of the color white. White is such a pure, clean color. When seen against a sharp contrast of black or another primary color it can be breathtaking. Here are a few!

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Black & White or Sepia

Cee is challenging us with a series on colors! This challenge is for black & white or sepia. I really like the tones but have determined that you must have some good photos to do the colors – or lack thereof – justice. Some good contrast or the right object for the sepia.

So here are a few photos for you to enjoy!sepia bench

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Water

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is Water. I like this challenge because it is related directly to the 5 Chinese elements. So Cee shared what those are/can be:

Sea, Ice, Storms, Rain, Steam, Fluid, Sound, Mist, Acid, Salt, Time, Pressure, Moon, Mirror, Snow, Frost, Sugar

I also wanted to go out of the norm and find those 3 photos that were not so obvious in the interpretation of water. I’ve chosen mist, ice, and moon.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Unusual

According to the MW dictionary unusual means uncommon or rare. So for this week’s post I chose photos from the super moon in March of 2011.

Color of the night – pictures from yesterday

These were taken 2 nights ago. The moon seemed to have a beautiful blue cast to it surrounded by the rolling cloud cover. Then adding to the drama were the bare branches of the trees. My husband thinks that they are quite eerie looking, and I do agree, but the colors and the clouds made them irresistible to me! I’m always enchanted with the moon!  

 

 

 

 


A-Z Archive: D Challenge – Dark Heart Moon

Once again, I am going to participate in the A-Z Archive challenge. Taken during the super moon last April, this seems to have a heart shape shining in between the trees.

As The Night Comes….

Fresh from after the sunset tonight – the woods and the moon called to me. With the leaves and an old chair in the background. I was mesmerized by the moon, stars, nature, and the beauty. I had so much fun taking these that there are a lot more to come, too!!

Enjoy!

 


Fly me to the moon…

It happened on Saturday, March 19th  – the big moon shone bright and it seemed so close. It has a bunch of technical reasons for why it was so bright, big, and beautiful and you can check them out here but for me it was a gorgeous night to capture a slice of nature in a very different manner. Typically, I do not shoot night pictures. I have tremors that make me shake so the long shutter speed is usually prohibitive. The stunning brightness of the moon helped me to capture some of its beauty as well as the beauty it brought to its surroundings.

Hope you enjoy!
