Photo challenge: Silhouette
Aug. 22nd, 2011 10:30 pmThis one was pure luck. I had been thinking about this photo all day. I even tried a few times to get one but they didn't work. Then I saw the sunset out of Rheya's window and ran to get my camera so I could get the sunset picture and noticed it was perfect for a silhouette picture too. I didn't want to submit the same photo for both challenges so I went out the front of my house (the sunset pic was taken from Rheya's window at the back of my house) and the picture up my street was nice.


Photo challenge: Childhood memory
Aug. 20th, 2011 09:06 pmThis book brings back so many memories. I read this over and over as a child. I loved the illustrations, particularly I loved the green dress the little mermaid wore when she gets taken back to the palace by the prince.
I remember being disappointed by the Disney version of this story, when they changed the ending so it fitted in with their "happily ever after" obsession.
I'm reading this book to Rheya at the moment. I wanted her to appreciate the original story line as I did, and being an art fan like me, I thought she might also appreciate the mute (in comparison to Disney), but detailed, illustrations....she does by the way.

Photo challenge Day 5: From a high angle
Aug. 12th, 2011 06:17 pmI might redo this theme because there are so many things I can think of to take pictures of, I just haven't been near any of them today.
Ok onto the pictures (yes plural, I couldn't decide which one to use)....I'll start with the predictable one...looking down on a person. I really wanted to be a bit more original, but hey ho.

and then the boring one... looking down the stairs

Photography challenge Day 3: Clouds
Aug. 10th, 2011 12:51 pmETA: Finally got one!
I'll leave my original one here though....
Ok I'm having to cheat today because the sky is just one big cloud, as in, if I took a picture you'd see nothing but white. I'll do this challenge properly another day when there is more to take a picture of. For now I'm using a picture I took at Center Parcs last month.
