Adam's Wreath


Check out this awesome wreath Adam made at school!! He says it was a lot of hard work to make, but it turned out beautifully. Nice job! And it adds a very festive touch to our closet door.

Keep checking back :)

I've added a few more of Barb's photos, so be sure to go back and look at the latest submissions!!  She's almost all the way caught up now!

Day 30 - Self-portrait

This is the last day!!!  We made it through a month of photos! :)

I actually took this shot on the first day, but decided to save it for the last day because it shows what I've looked like for the last month. ;)

Jeni and I have decided we'd like to do this again in the spring so hopefully we can get a few more of you to join us the next time.  It's lots of fun and really makes you think about how and when to take photos. :)

Day 29 - Black & White

Here is mine for today:

Day 28 - Flowers

This isn't the best time of year to get shots of flowers so I went back into my old pictures and found some that I liked.  Of course, I couldn't pick just one so here are some of my favorites!! :)







(Okay, I may have gotten a little carried away!!)

Day 27 - From a distance

Yesterday I left my house at 7:30 in the morning and didn't get home until almost 11:00 last night so I didn't get a chance to post yesterday's challenge.

Here it is:

Day 26 - Close-up

I realized today that I need a macro lens and tomorrow I'll need a telephoto lens.  How am I supposed to do these challenges without the proper equipment?! ;)  I guess that's just more stuff to add to my Christmas list!!!  Here's today's photo:

(It's my chair in the entryway!!)

Day 24 - Animal

I toted my camera around all day and still don't have a picture of an animal.  I'll try again tomorrow and if I'm still unsuccessful I'm going to start going through my old photos or maybe take one of my kids because they're pretty much animals!!! :)

I still haven't taken an animal picture, but I was playing around early today and got this one so it's going to have to do.  Here is Chase (4 months old).....


Here is Jeni's:


And here is Barb's (Noel the Reindeer):

Day 23 - Sunflare

Dang -- it's completely overcast today which makes it pretty much impossible to get a photo for today's challenge.  Here's one I took at the beginning of the challenge that I didn't like, but looks like today it's the best we're gonna get!! ;)

I will be dragging my camera around with me for the rest of the day (next few days if needed!) to get a redo.

Day 21 - Faceless Self-portrait

If I had more time, I would've come up with something better!  Nobody wants to look at my backside so hopefully all of the lovely fall colors and pretty plants will distract you from looking at me. :)

Day 20 - Bokeh

Today's challenge I had to look up to see what it meant because I hadn't heard that word before!!  It just means that part of the photo is out of focus.  Here is mine for today:

Day 19 - Something Orange

I took this a little while ago while I had good light and was trying to check off a few things on the challenge.  There were too many pumpkins around so I had to do something different!!


Jeni's:

Barb's been busy, but hopefully I'll get some photos from her to add in here when things settle down a little bit!! 

And, here it is......


Also, enjoy Brenda's here.

Day 18 - Your Shoes

I'd have to say I have a small mountain of shoes so picking one pair for today's challenge was, well.....a challenge!! :)  I had to go for several pairs.  And there is no reason for the pairs I chose, it ended up being whatever I could find pairs of quickly!!


 Jeni's:


And don't forget to check out the pictures from the lady who started this whole thing here.

Day 17 - Technology

Here's my favorite piece of technology.....

What would I do without my phone?? :)

Day 16 - Long Exposure

I got home as it was starting to get dark.  I wanted to take my picture today of Adam at the top of the waterfall with his arms flapping like he was trying to fly! :)  The lighting was not cooperating and they all turned out horrible.  I really didn't have any other ideas but figured I'd have to do something inside if I was going to get any shot at all.  I can only work with what I've got!!!!

So, I had Briana do some "homework."  Boy can she write fast.  Look at her pencil flying across the page!! ;)

Jeni's:

Jeni -- I am in love with this picture.  Awesome!!!!!
