Week 5: Numbers

Could this have been an easier theme?! Numbers are everywhere! The possibilities were endless.

For my "official: photo, I tried to get numbers that are noticed the least. The numbers of a telephone pole. I gave this photo an antique feel just because I felt like it!



Some more number photos I did for this week are below.

(Numbers of a phone)

Like I said before, there were so many options for this week. I could have easily had more. But, I didn't want to get carried away!

Up next week is Sports. Really not sure how I will do that, since it is January in New Hampshire. Does sledding count as a sport? Of course I am 2 hours away from a ski hill.... I will figure it out!

Week 3: Starts with "P"

Week 3 was Starts with "P". P for purple, my favorite color! So, technically this is amethyst, but is still a purple shade!

Week 2: Innocence

New Macro Lens

So, for my holiday gift I received a new 40mm Macro lens from my dear husband. I think I am in love with it! I wanted to share some of my first photographs using my new toy!

My Amethyst birthstone ring.

Vine wrapped around branch.

You may be seeing more macro photography from me in the future. It has also been something that interested me for a long time. I had trouble doing this without a proper lens. Now, the possibilities are endless!!!!!

Week 1: New Years Resolution / Goal


Well, 2012 is officially over. I am proud to have finished all 52 weeks of the 2012 52-Capture Challenge! I was really excited to know the group I belong to was doing another 52-Capture Challenge this year! I found last year's to be a lot of fun and a great learning experience. I am more then ready to do it again this year!

So, for starters, let me share the official list with you! This list is provided by Photographer's Connection. http://photographersconnection.com/





Week one is New Years Resolution / Goal. My picture for this week represents just one of my four goals for 2013. That would be to eat healthy and stay healthy. AKA, get of my butt more and not eat so much junk!!!!



I have 3 other goals that I set for myself in 2013. The second one is to be a better teacher to my children. See, I stay home with them, and they are getting closer to kindergarten. I need to make more time to read to them, and teach them what they need to know for school. It won't be easy, but I am going to try!!! So, for my second picture, I have a book to help with the above goal.



My next two goals are represented in one picture. I have a bad temper, not sugar coating it. So, I have prescribed myself more patience! I also have a tendency to impulse buy. So, my last goal is to be wiser with my spending. Pointless shopping will be a hard habit to break. But, hey, I have quit a bad addiction before, so why not this one, too?


All right, so that concludes week one! See you next week for week two!
