I am a little behind on my 52 week challenge, but I'm getting it done as soon as I can! I've been quite busy! I have been staying steady on my 52Frames (because it's a countdown, I have to! Or I'll break my streak.. *ohh the pressure lol*)
I'm going to catch up as soon as I can. I have to do my 52Frames soon, and it's "PORTRAIT" & extra credit is "Rembrandt Lighting" - so we'll see if I get it done with the extra credit.. but either way I'll have a portrait for them by Sunday!
I've been VERY stressed out lately too, but I've been doing A LOT of praying and self reflection, and I know that it's all going to be okay. I'm remaining positive, even though sometimes it can be VERY HARD. (No worries, I'm fine! Everything is going to work out, in the right time!)
◼ The subject for WEEK 19 on my 52 WEEK is: "END OF THE LINE"!
I took quite a few different photos that I could use for this one, however.. this sign has been in my mind ever since I heard of the subject.. I took this photo on the way home from the store, and I ended up choosing this one to use.
I really love the sign underneath, about the deaf cat.. It's so unique.
I hope that you all are doing well! I have a photo shoot to do tomorrow morning (PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY for an upcoming website)- I'm excited! I'll post a photo to show you guys what I come up with.. Although I'll probably have a few good ones, I'm sure!

Stay blessed & keep taking amazing photos, my Flickr Friends!! - JessiCaM
When I begun to process this exposure bracketing, I thought that I knew what I wanted to attain. I was perfectly wrong. Indeed, these RAW files kept a few secret bits of beauty which I was not aware of when I selected them for processing – and they changed the course of the journey I had foreordained.
I was in a gloomy mood, for both personal and general concerns, and the RAWs looked rather duller than the average – taken: they appeared to accurately mirror the state of my soul. At worst, I would have wasted some hours of pointless procesing work before deciding to look for something better. Nobody would have known. However things were to contradict my expectations. I got some good news (a rarity in those tough days) about the health conditions of my brother and my “adopted brother-in-law” (i.e. my brother’s brother-in-law); on the other hand, Darktable – that wonderful software – gifted me with a few unanticipated treasures. My thoughts were growing more and more positive and the processing of this bracketing were proceeding accordingly: a hidden beauty was unfolding before me, my own persisting unawareness of it notwithstanding. At last I found myself with a picture that had apparently self-processed itself*, while I was busy exploring uncharted thoughts that kept emerging along the way
* Admittedly a bizarre phenomenon, which Maurits Cornelius Escher would have loved – think of his Drawing hands.
I would avoid to nag you about this incredibly wonderful location: you can take a look at my album Silent banks, the complete collection of the photos I have taken there; the attached narratives are rich in information about the place, if you are curious enough.
This location is especially renowned for its legendary morning mists, but only a thin layer of milky mist floated above the water that morning. On top of the hill in the distance, beyond the river, lays the sanctuary of the Madonna della Rocca ( = Madonna of the Rock), already brushed by the first light pouring from the Eastern horizon.
I have obtained this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-1.7/0/+1.7 EV] by luminosity masks in the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal exposure" shot), then, as usual, I added some final touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4.
I tried the inverted RGB blue channel technique described by Boris Hajdukovic as a possible final contribution to the processing. While this technique (which, its imposing name notwithstanding, is pretty simple to implement) often holds interesting results in full daylight landscapes, its effects on a low-light capture (e.g. a sunrise) are utterly unpredictable, so at the end of my workflow I often give it a try to ascertain its possibilities. In this picture I have exploited this technique in a very frugal, yet effective, way – just some touches where needed.
RAW files has been processed with Darktable. Denoising with DFine 2 and the Gimp (denoised and original images blended by lightness).

I had to face the "Zombie Apocalypse" and go shopping. Went into the two empty shops, missed the queues and paid a lot more for the stuff. It was worth it.
This is from the inside of the GMC I posted yesterday. The truck was on an abandoned farm east of Innisfail, Alberta.
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️

This morning when I left for the gym at 5:30 it was a brisk 30 degrees outside. When I arrived my regular class was set up for circuit training which I usually like but my heart wasn't there today so I joined the Zumba class. Great start to the day. Now I'm trying to stay warm and am sipping some yummy Yogi Sweet Tangerine Positive Energy Tea. The message on my tea bag was "Live to share" so see I am living it - sharing the message, sharing my image and if you were closer I'd share some tea with you too. Oh yeah, and this fantastic mug was made by a very talented artist, Maxx Cohen.
Happy Monochrome Bokeh Thursday!

I've been home from work for two weeks now, and I have joined the ranks of people that no longer know what day it is. I'm OK with that! For 4 + years I have worked every weekend... and now.... every day is a weekend!
I have started several projects, finished none. Today I decided to start cleaning the basement. Bad decision. I've been opening boxes and seeing stuff that I haven't seen for years... some I'm looking at and wondering why the heck I bothered to put it in a box and save it in the first place... and then there is the really cool stuff that I haven't seen in years... that I end up taking out and playing with. Yeah... it's not going well... it's not going well at all. But tomorrow is another day... and it's a "weekend"!

Week 3 of my 52 Week Project. : MY HAPPY PLACE.
__________________
My happy place is.. the lake near my home. However, a photo for this subject was a very hard decision! There are quite a few local places that I consider to be my "happy place". More recently this has become my new happy place.. (or at least in my top 3)!
HOWEVER, PHOTOGRAPHY ITSELF = IS MY HAPPY PLACE!!
On my way home from physical therapy today, (which is going VERY WELL if you're wondering), I asked Juan to stop by the park so I could hop out really quick and take some photos.
& I have to say, photography... taking photos on a very nice day & running back to the car KNOWING that I just took some amazing photos- with a huge smile on my face- jumping up and down, kissing Juan on the cheek and thanking him a hundred times for stopping at the perfect time.. and helping me to capture these great photos ... = That has become my new "favorite drug" or natural high.
I cannot even explain the feeling I get when I take a photo and even more so when I know I just captured some incredible shots... It's actually BETTER than any drug ever was for me.
..You should have seen me today as I was taking the photos and after I was done.. I'm still beaming.
There really is no better feeling in the world , than TAKING A GREAT PHOTO!
_______
>>>Btw: These are frozen water drops on the grass by the lake. I am in love with this.. (I have a few more that I'm going to look thru and possibly post in the future.. I have a TON of incredible images from today.. so I'll be posting them in the near future! Keep an eye out.
Hope everyone has a beautiful and blessed day! Stay positive, everything will be okay!

In a world filled with ups and downs, a simple smile has the power to heal and uplift. When we smile, it's as if a ray of sunshine breaks through the clouds, warming our hearts and souls. It spreads contagious joy, connecting us with others and reminding us of the beauty that exists in every moment. So, let your smile radiate, for it is a powerful force that can heal not only yourself but also those around you, bringing light and positivity into the world
this is my impression of esther17. esther is truly one of the reasons flickr is the positive, supportive, joyous space that it is. i know someone else started this tongue meme, but to me, this is quintessential esther, and for that, and for her marblelessness, i adore her. so there.
happy birthday, ms. e!

I thought this image kinda looked like two things. Obviously a leaf but I also saw a profile of a face. lol Maybe I'm crazy! So this photo is kind of playing tricks on me. :) Positive and negative space? ;)
HGGT! Happy rainy Thursday everyone. :)
Love is not about the beauty of the person, the positives that you gain from it, a person's beauty may fade but love stays beautiful forever. Its an inspiration to be selfless with a motive to be kind, trustworthy, think about things which are more important to your loved one.
The act of giving you, making you smile gives me more satisfaction than my own benefits. Loving you is not what i want to do rather its my need for me to be more human everyday as being with you makes me better. Time spent with you is devine moreover its my way of living, All I can say is thankyou for making me feel the way I do, I am blessed to be with you.
