Iced

Day 54; Project 365

This is an interesting photo and not what I was trying to capture. I wanted to try my hand at a reflection shot again. That project didn't leave me with great results. But while I was taking those photos I just leaned over my glass of water and snapped a few shots. The glare from the flash bounced off the water and ice and gave me this really over exposed photo that I think is actually kind of cool.

Boring!

Day 53; Project 365

I call this photo Boring because, well, that's kind of what it is. But it was the best shot of the day. I spent day 53 kicked back on the sofa, knitting and reading. So there you have it. That's about it. Plus this is the only shot taken that day that came out anywhere near half way decent.

The books you see there are Stitch 'n Bitch; A Beginner's Handbook and What to Expect When You're Expecting.

In The Crib

Day 52; Project 365

Been spending a lot of time getting the baby room ready. So on day 52 I snapped a few shots of the crib. I thought this one was kind of cool. It's taken from the outside looking through the front slats to the back. The only thing, I didn't like the way the flash was turning the shades of the wall behind the crib. And I couldn't get any good photos without the flash.

So I turned the image to B&W. It turned out kind of cool. The crib is actually white and the wall is a sage green.

Marks The Spot

Day 51; Project 365

Every day I park in pretty much the same spot at work. Always under the Assembly C sign and always beside these trees. I use them as guides. I know when the tree is level with a certain part of my car that I'm fully in the parking space.

Lately I've been paying closer attention to the trees and the way the lights (the parking lights, car lights, sunlight) play against them. So on Day 51 I pulled out my trusty Olympus camera and snapped a few photos. This one was actually taken from inside my car at the trees and the line of trees beyond. You can see the first heat of the sunrise just behind them. And if you look really close you can see a parking light in the background of the shot.

I liked this shot because I liked the way the light shifts through the photograph almost creating barriers at each point of distance.

Did Someone Say Food?

Day 50; Project 365

Day 50 was a very busy day. It started and ran like a fiend all day long, ending with our baby class that night. When we got home we were starved and luckily my dh had been to the store that day and bought us some grub for din-din. A roast beef sandwich with a melted slice of provolone cheese. Mmm-Mm, that's good! And as it turns out this is the only photo I took that day so naturally it was the best choice for day 50's photo.

Droplets

Day 49; Project 365

On Day 49 it rained. And rained. And rained. It just poured on me on my way in to work, and when I got to work, despite having both a rain jacket and umbrella, by the time I made it from my car inside the building I was soaked. Luckily, I had my Olympus camera with me, it usually stays with me always these days, and I snapped a few pictures.

This is a photo of my laptop bag. It was just as soaked. As I snapped a photo of it however I started to wonder if I could get a close up of the beads of water. I don't think I did too bad capturing those.

Squish

Day48; Project 365

On Day 48, I took the day off work and the dh and myself went to one of the largest consignment sales in these parts. I was floored by the # of people and the shear volume of items for sale. We were looking for very specific items so were kind of single-mindedly focused. But when we saw the rocking bear chair we had to grab it.

This is a shot of the bear all squished down and in our big container. When I saw him down in there I just had to take a picture. He was too cute to resist.
