Wow, Have I been slacking!

Hello Blogger world. So sorry I have been away for a while. I am here to catch up on my weekly challenge photos. I have for you weeks 19-23.

First, week 19 was Strength. My photo is the Tarot VIII. When drawn right-side-up, this card represents strength, courage, or determination. Watch out though, if read up-side-down, this card can represent pettiness or weakness.


Week 20 was funny faces. Of course having my kids and then I babysit too, I have plenty of willing participants for this theme!




Week 21 was the color purple. I chose to photograph my hanging plant. This was my mother's day gift from my dad. It has been a traditional gift from him every year (that I have been a mom!). I love having something to brighten up my deck during the summer!


Week 22 was multiplicity, or otherwise known as sequencing. This was fun for me. I have never tried this technique until now. Basically, this is when you take multiple shots of a specific subject in one frame. Then,  using editing software, you put them together to make one photo with multiples of the one subject. Anyway, I think for my first attempt, this was pretty good.



Lastly, week 23, in the woods.



Week 24 is this week, and the theme is flowers. I will have this one up as soon as the rain stops! See you then!

Weeks 16, 17, 18

Sorry that I have yet again fallen behind!! I have just started watching my new baby niece a couple weeks ago, and it has been an adjustment having not just a sixth child here at my daycare, but she is only three months old to boot! Anywho, I think things are leveling out, and our routine has smoothed yet again.
I have for you now week 16, which was 'Landscape'


Next is week 17, 'Head-shot'. I mentioned I started babysitting my new niece, so of course who else would I use for this challenge???? My niece!!!!



Lastly, this weeks challenge, which is 'A Burst of Color'. While out and about by myself (which rarely happens) today, I bought myself some crazy daisies. Perfect for my week 18 challenge, and something to brighten up my kitchen!


See you next week for week 19, strength.

Week 14 and Week 15

Week 14 was candy. So, being Easter weekend, Jelly Beans were in excess. Hence my photo for this week.

 A toast to Jelly Beans:


Week 15 was rain. We wad the first Thunder Storm of the year this morning. How convenient that the theme this week is rain!


Next week is Landscapes.

Week 13: Tattoos

This is my tattoo. It was a 21st birthday gift to myself. I chose the rose because to me, it represents beauty. It is to remind me of not just of my own beauty, but the beauty of all life.



Next week is candy, yummy!

Week 11 and Week 12

Sorry I am a week late! Just didn't get around to posting last week! So week 11 was clocks. I got this while out driving (in the snow!). Not the best photo, but hey, I got it done!



This week was someone you admire. I have so many people I admire that I could have used. Like any of my kids, my husband, my mom, my dad, etc. I went with my middle baby though. Some things I admire about him are his great imagination, his love for family, his creativity, and his energy.



Next week is Tattoos. See you then!

Week 10: Before and After

OK, so this is really from last year, but I was given the idea of buds and flowers. I knew I had these photos, so I used them!



Next week is Clocks. See you then!

Week 9: Cars

This is one of the many Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars my boys have. It is one of my favorites. I just wish I could have a real muscle car!



Next week is before and after. Until then Blogger world!
