McComb Family

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!! ;)

So......I don't technically know what the rules are to this challenge -- in fact, I'm pretty sure there aren't any!  If it's getting me looking at, thinking about, and taking more pictures then I think I've been successful. 

My point is.....I hope I don't get in trouble for letting Bret push the button on the camera today.  I figure I'm the one that set the camera and the shot up, all he did was push the button for me since it was a little tough to balance 13 hats on my head and try and take a picture of myself!!!  It's almost like a monkey could have done it! :)  (Not that I'm saying you're a monkey or anything Bret!!!)

I'll post Jeni and Barb's photos when I get them!

When I first saw this challenge mentioned, I anticipated taking a picture each day of whatever was listed.  Then I realized some of them may be hard to capture on that day - clouds when it's clear sky, a sunset when it's rainy, sunflare on an overcast day.......not so easy.  I realized I would have to rely on pictures I had already taken.  So, I started searching through my folders to see if I had anything that would work for each category.  I found some sunset ones and so here it is:

That's in Fort Bragg at 5th Grade Camp this year.

Wow -- your  photos kick my photo's bootie!!  Nice job girls.  Goes to show how some days you get good conditions and some days you don't!!! :)  Maybe this will be one of my redos!

While I was looking through my photos I can across this one and just had to use it for "blue day".  This is from Maui.

Not bad for an underwater shot (and no touching up)!!!

I really had to think of what I could do for this one -- it's kind of hard to take a picture of something from your past.  A lot of my memories revolve around hopping in the camper and heading out for the weekend (or longer!).  We spent many fun times at the Pinnacles or up at the redwoods, so I decided a tree would be apt for representing some childhood memories. :)

I need to get going on this one.  Tried to get some of the kids and dogs, but they all turned out bad.  I'll have to try something else. 

But, in the meantime, here is Jeni's:

Just got home and have to leave in a few minutes, but I'm trying to get my pictures taken and posted so here goes......

My contributions for today (may change them later when I have 5 seconds to devote to taking a decent photo!!!):

This was kind of a weird one.  I don't normally photograph fruit, so I had to try a couple of different things -- a pile of apples, cut up apples.....

I liked this one though because of the cool pattern.

Here is Jeni's:
Ha ha -- love the apple man.  Looks like he's been lounging out in the sun a little too long though, he's getting awfully dried out! ;)
