It's been over a month since my last post...whoopsie! Life got real busy...end of school, new job for me, lots of photo shoots...all great stuff which makes for way less time for the fun stuff!!<br />
<br />
Ok so I've just been trying to play a little catch up with my P52 project. I left off on week 22. We are now on week 28. Here are weeks 23-26...<br />
<br />
Week 23: Deliberate Out of Focus<br />
This week was the 5th anniversary of my sister's passing so "out of focus" was totally appropriate for me since that's how I was feeling!!<br />

Week 25: Mulligan</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We are at the 1/2 way point in the year (YIKES) and we were able to have a "do over" for a week we have already done. Whether it was a week we really enjoyed or a week we wanted to work on a little more. I choose the "Deliberate Out of Focus" week. Here is Katie leaping in the yard. I thought this came out pretty good. I tried to focus on her while moving with her creating the blurred background.</div>

Katie is always a willing subject so we took a few more while she was leaping in the side yard. This would be a good example of Negative Space.</div>

Unfortunately it feels more like March...chilly, rainy and yucky. :(<br />
So here I am playing a little catch up on my P52. Week 21 was Still Life...<br />
The rules here were:<br />
-mostly/completely inanimate matter<br />
-more than one item in the image<br />
-very controlled composition<br />
<br />
My 1st attempt was some of my seaglass collection. I LOVE seaglass. That is one of my favorite parts about going to the beach...walking and searching for seaglass!!<br />

Not complaining though!! :) We've had Katie's birthday, Pops Concert at school, tennis practice/games and the recital and all the rehearsals that go along with that. I love it all!!! <br />
<br />
So I'm a week behind in my posting my P52 shots. Week 19 was Architecture. I thought UGH...what the heck and I going to find in my little town to photograph. WELL...I stand corrected!!! I loved this particular week!!! I wish I had had more time to really sink my teeth into the topic. I gave myself about 20 minutes and went to Central St. and really stopped and looked around. When do you ever have the chance to stop and take in your surroundings? Here's what I found...<br />

I am going to try and schedule some time to walk around find some more cool architecture to photograph. Who would have thought I'd love that...I hated my architecture class I took in college!!</div>

Ok...Week 20 was Photographer's Choice. I have been keeping a notebook with some ideas of photos or techniques I'd like to try. So when these weeks come up I look at that list and pick something. I've wanting to try a glitter blowing shot...so has Katie. It took a couple of tries but SO happy with the end result!!! I love it and so does she!!! </div>

It's a gloomy day here...so perfect to get back at it with my Project Life, right?!?! <br />
So I figured out that I had left off here on the blog with January 2014. So here we have February 2014! I am showing them a little different than how you'd see them in my album. Here they are 12x18. In my album the first page you see here would be split 2/3 and 1/3 = 12x12 page on the left hand side and then 6x12 on the right side. <br />
Then... the next page you see here would be split 1/3 and 2/3 = 6x12 page backing up to the 1st 6x12 and then the final 12x12 on the right hand side. Works for me!!<br />

Nature with little to no human activity or presence of any sort. This past weekend was REALLY busy with the school play. So I sort of went with what was in front of me. Trees are blooming like crazy around here! I love trees in bloom against the super blue sky. Here you have it...<br />

We were at Stonehill College for a memorial Mass for my sister. I loved this sidewalk lined with trees and their buds and the lampposts. I could have done without the cars parked in the background but sometimes you just have to go with it and embrace those things...<br />

It's amazing how quickly things can pile up when you are constantly running in different directions!!! Wow!!<br />
<br />
SO......P52...<br />
Week 16 was Street Photography. This genre is typically candid and tries to capture the human experience. Ekkkkkk!!! This was going to be a little out of my comfort zone. I was imagining trying to photograph some people I don't know while they aren't looking. Sounds creepy to me. Some photographers are amazing at capturing this kind of thing. Once I stopped to think about how I was going to accomplish this....it came to me!! We will go get some ice cream (that helps everything, right?!?!) So I took Katie and her friend to our town ice cream shoppe. The challenge was for them to NOT look at the camera and smile!!! Eh...we went with it!!! I'm pretty happy with the results. I tried a black and with also.<br />

Week 17 was Food Photography...I went with fruit....something healthy!!! I was thinking if I opted for chocolate all I want to do is eat it!!! I saw this photo in a previous week in the P52 forum and thought I'd give it a try. I used a rectangular vase, some toothpicks to hang the slice of orange, tonic water and different pieces of scrapbook paper. I think the crispness of the photo would have been better if I was using a macro lens but that is still on my wish list ;) This was pretty fun!!! Once you have the fruit and tonic water all set you can click away and change out the background as much as you want!!! And you can see I did just that!!</div>

Nope! I think I NEED boundaries. <br />
I have started a list of photos I'd like to try my own spin on. This will be great to pull from when my brain puts on the brakes!!<br />

Here is the photo I used as my submission for the week...<br />

Since we just finished up the last dance competition for the season I thought sequins were appropriate!<br />
<br />
<br />
Here is something I use constantly...nail polish...and usually a neutral color. I like the shadow the bottle is casting here.<br />

There are lots of ways to frame within your photo...<br />
Natural...like with trees, bushes and things you find in nature<br />
Architectural...door, windows and that sort of thing<br />
Light and shadow<br />
<br />
I had fun brainstorming ways to use framing this week. I still have a list of photos I want to try but here are the ones to took this week...<br />
<br />
<br />
Here is Roman on a dining room chair catching some sunshine. I liked the antique look to this. Black and white with warmth to it to catch the feel of the sunshine.<br />

Katie and I had fun trying to get this one. She had a hard time not laughing in the photo. Laughing would have been ok except the mirror is small and she kept moving it when laughing. :)<br />

Thought I'd play a little P52 Catch Up today. The last week I posted was week 9...yikes!!<br />
<br />
So, I think I missed week 7, the prompt was Backlighting...your subject lit from behind. I love this concept in the summer sun at dusk...in the middle of the worse winter EVER...it's hard!!!<br />
<br />
This one I wanted to focus on Roman's whiskers in the sunlight that was coming in the big window behind him.<br />

The theme was Alternative Light. We had to try and use a unique light source and not use the light from the iPad/iPhone. I had just taken photos with a birthday candle and Christmas lights. I am so drawn to photographing people so I thought I'd try to reach out of the box a little. This is a photo of my cool light up stars shining light on the couple Willow Tree. I really liked the little hearts that are up in the top right of the photo. I'm sure that's from a little camera shake...probably should have grabbed my tripod. I had fun editing this in Lightroom and Color Efx Pro.<br />

We have a super busy weekend with the high school play and a dance competition. I'm hoping to get some fun shots!!! <br />
<br />

Good for the soul!! I finally got around to my February prompt for the One Little Word workshop. We were to make Vision Boards. My word being "Focus" I was looking through magazines trying to find words that would help me focus. I was looking for things that would inspire me. I wanted to make the board fairly small so I could put it on my desk to see daily. My board is 8x10. By the look of the board I'm drawn to blues and greens. I was very happy to finish this up today even though it is now March. One of the things I am focusing on is not giving up. I tend to start something and not follow through. I plan to follow this workshop and the P52 project ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO THE END OF THE YEAR!! Yes...that is me reminding myself of that!! ;)<br />
<br />
Here's my vision board for 2015...<br />

At the beginning of this year I decided to try something new...One Little Word. This is a workshop with Ali Edwards. She is a scrapbooker/storyteller into recording her family's life. She loves photography and Project Life. In the One Little Word workshop (OLW) you pick a word...just one...to live by and integrate into your everyday. I chose FOCUS. <br />
So far it's going pretty well. There is still room to grow by a mile. <br />
Each month Ali gives you some things to work on and think about. Here is a photo of a page in my OLW album which was part of our assignment for January...<br />

I am hoping to not only FOCUS on photography but also different parts of my life as well. As the year progresses I will post photos of our monthly assignments. I will be posting February's soon...since it's almost over!!! This month's assignment is a vision board!!! So Fun!!! I can't wait to sit down to cut and paste!!! :)Tinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14869005441257445274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2307199406235765217.post-26302490377456772022015-02-25T10:24:00.000-08:002015-02-25T10:24:59.823-08:00P52 ~ Week 8Week 8 already!?!?! How can that be? All the days are blending into the next with all this stinkin' snow on the ground!!! We got another couple of inches last night. UGH!!!<br />
So this week's prompt for P52 was Low Light. In order to get a good, in focus low light shot you need a high ISO, the widest aperture and a tripod or some way to make sure you are REALLY sturdy!!! I used all of those elements in these photos. Instead of using my tripod I braced myself against something or rested the camera on a table to avoid camera shake.<br />

<br />
Photo scanning!!! So do you have shoe boxes of old photos? How about old albums of photos before photography went digital? Now with digital photography and smartphones it's so easy to back up all your photos. But those printed photos...if you were to lose those...they'd be gone...forever!!!<br />
<br />
If I scan your printed photos for you and put them on to a disc (or 2) you'd have them to use however you want and can back them up further from there. Then there would be no threat of losing those photos and memories forever.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzsePGYFRnyyNvB7urvYU593PUT4NYHHiswMG6xN-65W8mCMOHobvvCb7-2p_S0GEsX-n98Vy2RSSRcJzfM2wL73GXU5e7G_PRX_6LLBwEYZOTpKRGf2RSG6vQWQA8_xfDv4vu4J_xF6u2/s1600/photoscanning+8x8+700px.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzsePGYFRnyyNvB7urvYU593PUT4NYHHiswMG6xN-65W8mCMOHobvvCb7-2p_S0GEsX-n98Vy2RSSRcJzfM2wL73GXU5e7G_PRX_6LLBwEYZOTpKRGf2RSG6vQWQA8_xfDv4vu4J_xF6u2/s1600/photoscanning+8x8+700px.jpg" height="400" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
300 dpi (dots per inch) is ideal for viewing, sharing and making similar sized prints.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
600 dpi is best for archival and large reproduction purposes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once you have your photos scanned and put on to a disc you could back them up on to your computer and/or an online storage website. It's best to have your photos stored in 2 separate places. One being out of your house. You could also order 2 copies of your disc...keep one at home and one in a safe place out of your house.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So imagine your precious photos saved digitally to make prints of and share whenever and wherever you want. And best of all...no worries about losing them!!! :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ahhhh...sign of relief!!!</div>

COME ON MOTHER NATURE!!! Quit it!!! We have had FEET of snow upon FEET of snow in the past few weeks. I'M DONE!!! <br />
Ok...on to other things...<br />
P52 Week 6 prompt was directional lighting, especially side lighting. I used my black "chalk board" again set up on my dining room table with the slider to my right. It was fairly late in the afternoon but all the snow outside made it a bit brighter than normal. This Willow Tree Angel I thought was appropriate with the heart...with Valentine's Day coming this weekend. :)<br />

Hopefully you are all done digging out from this round of stinkin' snow if you live in this area. My word...we can't take ANY more snow!!!<br />
Ok...P52 week 5...Inspired By was the theme. Find a photo or photographer that inspires you and try to recreate a piece with your own spin...make it yours. Yikes! What the heck am I going to do??? There's like 100 feet of snow outside!!! So like I usually do, I took the weekend to think it over and checkout some websites and Pinterest. I really love boken. I have always wanted to try those things you make to put over your lens to make shaped boken. AND...I love tea. So here's what I came up with...<br />
<br />

Photograph something that you think won't be the same 10-20 years from now. My mind instantly went to my kids. In 10 years they won't be KIDS anymore...gulp!!! As much as they can drive my crazy I love being their mom and all the things that come with it. <br />
My thought process with this photo went through a few different options. First, I thought of having them sit on their beds engrossed in their iPhones and I could use a wide angle lens to get them both in the shot. I tried that and it didn't look great. Then, I thought of taking individual shots of them on their beds with their iPhones and making one photos from 2. I really wanted to incorporate their rooms in the photo...but I wanted one photo not 2 looking like one. Then...I thought about how much I love the glow of electronics on faces at night!!! We all spent quite a bit of time in our living room hanging out during the snowstorm this week...so while they were both sitting on the couch (with their iPhones of course) I had them sit together in the middle of the couch and there you have it!!! They were giggling because they thought it was funny that they were just looking at the home screen while I was taking the picture. I know one day (many days) I will miss them sitting on our couch hanging out during a snowstorm. One day I will miss saying, "Hey, can you put your phone down for a while?" Some days I feel like that is all I say. A Sign of the Times I guess!!<br />

Today we didn't have school and they have already called school for tomorrow. UGH!!!! This is cutting into our summer vacation!!! The snow is blowing and drifting so much it's hard to tell how much snow is out there. I just know it's a heck of alot!!!<br />
Today I'm working a little on some Project Life for April of 2014. It's nice to be looking through some warmer weather photos!!!<br />
<br />
Here is a 6x12 layout from Feb. 2013. Lots of times I'll add 2 6x12s back to back in the middle of my month layout to be able to include more photos.<br />

The theme we were given this week was Favorite. Meaning whatever we wanted it to mean...favorite anything. Well gosh...that's pretty broad! I spared Dennis and the girls a photosession. Of course they were first to come to my mind but I'm thinking there may be some weeks coming that they could have to be in front of the camera. ;)<br />
So I went with TEA...chocolate chip tea...my favorite!!! I took this post with the slider to my right for some natural light. I set the tea and teacup on a black foam board that I rubbed white chalk all over...same with the backdrop. <br />

<br />
The tea is loose leaf tea from Adagio Tea online. YUM!!! My favorite mug is an older Vera Bradley tea mug I got for my 40th birthday (couple days...i mean years ago).<br />
<br />
<br />
OK...I broke the rules on this one...I took 2 photos. I love this one too!!! Orange is a favorite of mine...I love hearts...I do love simplicity...and I'm loving white space in photos. So I played around with all those favorites and this is what I got!!<br />

As much as I like doing this, I think this year I am going to try not to get so far behind. Here is my January layout for 2014. As I look at the pictures and then out my window I am SO thankful that we don't have tons of snow and it's not 6 degrees outside!!!<br />

I can't believe how freezing it has been lately. Yeah, yeah...I know...it could be worse. Yes, it could be, but it also could be warmer too!!! Since it's been so cold I thought it would be appropriate to send you into the weekend with a heart I found along the side of my walkway into the house this week.<br />

It's P52!!!<br />
<br />
So I'm starting something new this year called P52. It's a challenge through Clickin' Moms website. Every Thursday there is a new prompt. They give you a topic to photography. I'm very excited to see the journey this will take us on. I plan on sharing my pictures that I take for P52 on here.<br />
<br />
The theme for week 1 was You. We had to take a selfie...YIKES!!! Like an actual thought out photo of ourself...with a real camera...not an iPhone. This was hard! I'm not a huge fan of being in front of the camera. And then editing a photo of myself...double yikes!!! <br />
I took 2 photos. The first is me sitting on the couch, which is one of my favorite spots in my house, with my favorite mug (that usually has tea in it). This was a lot of up and down off the couch running back and forth...check the compositition, focus, exposure...like I said...a lot of work. I was sweatin' by the time I was relatively happy with the result. OK...the second one I can't believe I'm sharing here. My face! I held the camera backwards, up at arms' length and hoped for the best. I'm hoping one day I'll look back at this photo and say, "Wow! Look how young I look!" I'm sure as heck NOT saying that now!!!<br />
<br />

<br />
That was last week...scary stuff!!! This week's prompt was a different kind of scary...House on Fire. What would you take with you if you had 10 minutes to get out of your house if it was on fire. WOW!!! That gets you thinking!!! We were told that it's a given that anything living would make it out safe. We got the prompt on Thursday, so I gave myself to take the weekend to think about it. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These are the things I came up with...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Our wedding album, the promise ring from Dennis (assuming I wasn't wearing it), a hard drive with a bunch of photos and things on it, my Gramma's pearls, my book of passwords, a recipe box with lots of my Gramma's recipes, a Sister's book about Aim and I, a journal with events and thoughts from my sister's last days, my iPad, iPhone and mascara (although I'd probably be crying it off my face!!...and totally replacable!).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm sure I could have filled my living room with things so I had to stop myself. Such a scary thought to lose everything!!! My heart goes out to anyone who has be in that situation...gosh, I couldn't imagine.</div>

<br />
As much as I'm not a fan of the cold weather, I do love January and it's offering of new beginnings!!! All the Christmas stuff (decorations and gifts) have all been put away and I have reclaimed all my space :)<br />
<br />
This year, for the 1st time I am taking part in the One Little Word workshop by Ali Edwards. Here is the link to her website for you to check it out: <a href="http://aliedwards.com/shop/classes/one-little-word">http://aliedwards.com/shop/classes/one-little-word</a><br />
The word I choose for me is FOCUS. I need focus...less distractions. I need to focus on following through, focus on finishing projects, focus on my health and fitness, focus on organization...and my list goes on and on. My Januarys look a lot like this...gung-ho, all excited to make some changes and then...life gets in the way. Well I'm going to FOCUS on making it happen this year. Why not? Now is the time!!<br />
<br />
I'm taking part in a couple of year long projects that I'm excited about. One is this, One Little Word. Another is P52 from Clickin' Moms. I'll share about that later this week. And as always, this is a big time during the year for me to get a bunch of Project Life done from the previous year...2014 here I come!!!<br />
<br />
So my word is FOCUS...what's your's?<br />
<br />
