23/52: The 52 week challenge - Take a photograph that is strong and necessary of something which is not photogenic.
I'm struggling so much with this challenge, don't think I've really grasped the theme but ran out of time to get the shot I really wanted. Had another go at light painting.
in need of a bigger mirror or longer arm =)
Portrait: Headshot - You shot a selfie, now shoot a "selfie" of someone else!
&
Story: Mirror - Tell a story using a mirror.
47/52: The weekly challenge - Paper abstracts.
These are the components for a Christmas decoration I started making but haven't had time to finish yet...at least they've come in handy for this challenge...albeit late!
Sorry to flood your feed with photos, I'm desperately trying to catch up with challenges! Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.

43/52: The weekly challenge - Communication
How times have changed, from the written word to the majority of our communication being done by smartphones or computers. I know the cup isn't anything to do with communication but everything is better with a cup of tea.
48/52: The weekly challenge - Water motion - The waves gently rolling in. This was taken on day two of our holiday in Malta. A totally different outlook to the previous day with that dramatic dark sky.

The 52 week challenge - monochrome
#4 in my 100 x challenge - monochrome
Some days I am so thankful for my stash of photo props.
45/52: The weekly challenge - Something found in the kitchen
So many things in the kitchen to photograph and it still took me ages to think of what to do...another high key!
25/52: The 52 week challenge - A Tree – Some of the most famous landscapes in the world feature a tree.
I had wanted to get a shot of my favourite solitary tree for this theme but just haven't got time at the moment so this one is from our trip to NZ. This is overlooking The Ngatarawa vineyard. Taken whilst on a wine tour around the Hawkes Bay wine region.
Also #60 in my 100 x challenge - photos from my travels.

50/52: The weekly challenge - I made this.
Making some progress with my Christmas wreaths...very slowly...but I thought I'd try to do some more to them for today's photo.
I am trying to catch up with all your photos...in fact I did some last night while I was wide awake in the middle of the night! :( I am out this evening but really hope to catch up soon.
21/52: Hands – usually the face is the strongest element in the frame, with the hands being the second. Make the hands the most important element in your image.
Just realised I hadn't got my 'hands' shot so quickly grabbed this one of my son using his phone.
Also for Monochrome Bokeh Thursday. HMBT
32:52 Something I’ve never shot before
I’ve never shot a life size bronze of the 3 wise monkeys before..
Week 15 For The 52 week project...Try to transform our world into an abstract image.
Also 19/30 For April 2016: A month in 30 pictures
Using ICM (in a circular motion) I took photos of the daffodils in my garden. I then merged 3 photos in Photomatix.
You can just about make out a few daffodils at the top of the image. I'm not sure if I have interpreted the challenge correctly but I am pleased with the abstractness (is that even a word?)
17/52: The 52 week challenge - dishes
25/30: April 2017: A month in 30 pictures

44/52: Project 52 - self portrait
45/52: The 52 week challenge - Recreate a famous photograph – one that you greatly admire.
Ever since I saw an exhibition of Horst's work, I wanted to do my version of his image 'Round the clock'. So I knew exactly what I would do for this weeks 52 week challenge. Then when Project 52 theme was self portrait, I decided to do this as a self portrait. Originally I had converse in mind and a friend had agreed to model for me but we hadn't got around to arranging a time for a photo shoot. I don't own converse so thought I'd use my walking boots. I also took a version wearing high heels but preferred this version as it's closer to the image I had envisaged. Here is a link to the original...I absolutely love it...and no, there was no way I was going to dress up like that...especially not for Flickr...I don't usually show my legs, so this is very brave of me! ;)
Thought I have a break from mountains for now!
Ok, I don't normally eat doughnuts, you can guess why...it's not because I don't like them! When strolling around Larkspur over the holidays we enjoyed a coffee, sitting outside, and a freshly baked doughnut of course!! Yep, twice in fact, well it was Christmas after all!! :))
3.52. Begins with the first letter of my name
Landscape: Nightowl - A tripod is going to be handy this week... time to shoot a night landscape. Look for some light for the scene! Car lights, city lights, or maybe just moonlight.
&
Artistic: Purple - Your inspiration this week is purple. Purple is the color of royalty, magic, and mystery.
35/52: The 52 week challenge - Patterns – Get inspired by the rhythms that patterns bring to your images.
These are the plastic spoons I brought back from Gran Canaria, a couple of years ago, as photo props. They have been useful on a few occasions so I thought I would give them another outing. Maybe now is the time to say goodbye, I hang on to far too much stuff...just in cases.
After seeing this on the screen I wished I'd used a smaller aperture but didn't have time to go back to the drawing board. Oh well, it's all a learning curve.
16:52 Texture – Find your artistic inspiration in textures – you should almost be able to feel the image.

4/52: The 52 week challenge - Abstract and Conceptual
This was so far out of my comfort zone. I had the idea but had to ask my husband aka Mr Technical for his advice on how to put it all together.
The 52 week challenge 8/52: Amuse Yourself – however you want!
This amused me so I thought it might do for the theme.
#25 in my 100 x challenge - photos from my travels
first time playing around with split toning, to bring out some blue and red
Landscape: Reflection - Find a way to show your landscape/natural beauty in reflection. The mirror world revealed.
&
Technical: Split Tone - Split Tone is an editing technique where the shadows are toned one color, and the highlights a second color. Split toning is often used with color grading in the media to give a scene a desired look and feel.
15/52: The weekly challenge - Out of my comfort zone
Any photo of me is totally out of my comfort zone so a self portrait is way, way out! Hence the focus on the lenses, I am 'reading' a photography book in the background.
I had a serious mishap with my 50mm lens today, I dropped it on the solid wood floor, it seems to be working okay but I hope it doesn't have a delayed reaction...it's my favourite lens.
I am already behind with commenting but I'm afraid I will probably get even more behind as we are going away tomorrow, for the weekend. We have a caravan (trailer to the non Brits) on the North Norfolk coast where it is an internet blackspot. Will try to get a pic taken before we go so I don't get too behind with posting as well as commenting.
Peter Forsgard 52 Challenge - Week 40 Speed
I couldn't figure out why I was getting bright blurred high-lights. I tried switching off and on, repositioning and then the penny dropped ... my lens ... a nice big smeary mark, probably from a dog's nose :)
Anyways, the chances of another vehicle with blue and yellow going by, to match the bollards, was pretty remote, so I'm sticking with this snap and the bright blurry high-lights.

#54 in my 100 x challenge - Monochrome
33/52: The weekly challenge - An everyday item
When you do a 365 a camera is an everyday item, I don't very often photograph it though.
27/52: The 52 week challenge - Leaves – On the ground, on a tree, or lying in water. Just use your creativity….
I picked the wisteria leaves and held them in front of the berberis bush. The sun was playing hide and seek so I had to wait for it to put it's hat on and make an appearance to get the light on the leaves.
DC Metro
Portrait: Street Candid - Candids on the street, show us life in your town through the lens.
39/52: The 52 week challenge - Letters – use your imagination, there are 26 in our alphabet, or….they used to be something that people wrote to each other.
My place setting at our goddaughter's wedding. I thought this may be okay for the theme as there are plenty of letters on the menu card and my name card.

32/52: The 52 week challenge - Take a photograph that reveals something about yourself that you’ve never shown before.
I couldn't think what to do for this weeks theme until I decided on my hairdressing scissors and clips to show that I am a hairdresser, although I only do very few people's hair now, just a couple of friends and family.
going for a bit of an "Inception" vibe
Artistic: Fantasy - Is this real life, or is this just fantasy... Your artistic inspiration this week is fantasy.

47/52: The weekly challenge - Old and rusty metal

Also for Sliders Sunday. HSS

6/52: 2018 52 week challenge - Clouds
One from the archives for this challenge...New Zealand isn't called Land of the Long White Cloud (Aotearoa) for nothing! This was one of many photos taken at Lake Tekapo. Bringing back wonderful memories from a year ago.
The 52 week challenge - Get wet. Take a photograph in the rain using the elements of the situation to your visual advantage.
We haven't had much rain lately (although it's drizzling today) so I re-edited a photo I've used previously (black and white) as I am getting so behind with the challenge.
15:52 Breakfast of Champions
We don’t usually have Portuguese Custard Tarts for breakfast but on Easter Friday we did.
30:52 Bicycle Parts – you can shoot the whole bike or whatever part you like.
Our hotel in Bora Bora kindly provided bikes for the guests. I can't actually ride a bike. Had a go on a tricycle, fell off, much to Dan's embarrassment. I think the steering was dodgy.
30/52: The weekly challenge - SOOC, no editing.
I saw these cute little boots in the Junk shop I visited with Flickr friends Coleen and Diane. There were so many things I would have loved to bring home with me, it's a good job luggage space was limited!

25/52: The 52 week challenge - Take two things that do not fit together, and put them together.
I found this broken, empty blackbird egg, in the garden. I'm guessing a magpie stole the egg and ate the contents judging by the blackbird warning calls earlier. It makes me sad but the egg hasn't gone to waste as I thought I would use it for my daily photo. While trying to think how to take the photo, I realised I could also use it for the 52 week challenge so put it with these alphabet beads. Sorted!
