I had several ideas for a photo to fit this week's theme - but none of them worked out. This was a sneaky photo taken in church.
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
Confucius
As we get older we tend to make life harder and more complex. Children have a magnificent ability to remind us how wrong we often are. After getting more toys this Christmas than a child could ever need she plays with what most of would consider "trash". Maybe we should allow our children to remind us how truly simple life is more often.
Ripon Cathedral is commemorating the Holocaust by hosting a major art installation called 6 million+, Every Person Counts.
The artwork is made up of six million buttons, each one representing someone killed in the Holocaust. The '+' refers to Jewish and non-Jewish individuals who were never counted, as well as people who have died across the world in conflicts and genocides since the Second World War.
It was originally commissioned from Leeds-based artist, Antonia Stowe, by Kirklees Museums & Galleries for their Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration in 2006.
Week 17 Urbainscape / Cityscape
For this week's challenge I went down to Bristol Docks armed with a tripod and an ND filter with a particular photo in mind. I got the picture I wanted, but decided to wander down the dockside for a bit before going home. Then I saw this, and felt that it suited this week's theme even better.
Let me introduce you to the Hotwells in of Bristol: The area takes its name from the hot wells (who'd have guessed) in the area, which have been likened to those of the much more famous baths in nearby Bath. In fact during the Georgian era, Bristol had its very own hot spa in an attempt to rival Bath, although they never quite made the cut, despite holding laughing gas parties in the Pneumatic Institution.

One of the only pics I took during Week 17...a locker room selfie after doing the bike and run legs of the Brookings I'm Ready for Summer Triathlon

It's a week late, I know blah blah blah
Week 5 was busy. It was the 2nd to last week before I leave. I was thinking that whole week about my future and how it's not so scary anymore.
I found this in Warren County while driving around. There is a sign on the peak which reads Weeks School, June 30, 1888. In recent years, most of the outer siding has been scavenged. I spoke with the Warren County Historical Society and they told me this school replaced a log one about 1/4 mile to the southwest. The land was donated by George Weeks and the school was built in 1888. It was used as a school until 1952. In 1972 it was given new life briefly as a community center.
52 weeks 2012
Week 2
Theme - Light through glass.
So I parked up last night on my way home & took this shot through the car window. Plenty of lights in here. The xmas tree lights still in the trees, the moving cars, and the reflections of my dashboard & those in the wing mirror. Probably too much going on.
One of my resolutions for this year is to take more photos, improve and find my style. To achieve this I'm going to use the same lens for a while to learn how to work with it more efficiently.
In other words I'm starting a 52 weeks projects! First I wanted to do a 365 days project but that seemed a bit too much to start with, maybe next year.
So here's my first photo. This week was quite boring. Exams are around the corner and there's still much stuff I have to learn. Basically I just sat inside studying and ate way too much. No worries, I went jogging too :p !

Seeing as this was the final week of my 52-week photo challenge, I felt a lot of pressure to go above and beyond and take an incredible picture.
I first attempted a pretty challenging concept. But to my dismay, I wasn't successful. I then tried another... but that didn't work out either. HAHA frown emoticon I was pretty bummed.
But you know what? I'm okay with it. Over this past year, I've tried quite a few cool, quirky concepts and I think I've gotten some neat shots out of it. And while I think I've learned a lot, my two setbacks from this week only show how much more I can still grow as a photographer. While I won't be partaking in another 52-week challenge this year (this was tiring to be honest haha), I'm proud to say I've accomplished this goal. I look forward to seeing what shots I take moving forward.
Thanks for following me on this journey!
P.S. Here's my piano.
Well I've decided to do a fifty two weeks project for 2011. This is going to be a huge year for me and I want to make sure that I preserve it well. At this point I intend for it to be all self portraits, but that may change. I don't (yet) have a remote, which makes taking self portraits exceedingly difficult, but I do want to challenge myself. I feel that this project will give me something to strive to accomplish, while also giving me room for creativity. Here's to 2011!
{Oh and I actually don't really particularly like this photo either, but it was the best one I got. If I take a better one later in the week I may replace it. I need a remote. Badly.}
Eight weeks to go before I'm a dad. Gulp. This was my first attempt at using off camera flash. There is one 580EXII at 1/8th power on Manual mode shot through a soft box at 45 degrees camera left with a TTL cord. I would really appreciate some good honest constructive criticism on this one as I have a real maternity shoot with a real client in two weeks. Thanks.
So this is something called light painting. It is were you do a long exposer (20-30 seconds) and then use a flashlight to expose the part of the picture that you want to see. I had Kat paint me in this photo. I like the ones of Kat and Lewis that I uploaded last night but I need a better setting to be able to full take advantage of this technique.
Here is a link that explains how to do it:
Olive and her daddy are pretty cute together. She lights up when she sees him. He makes her laugh easily. She peers around my shoulder to catch a glimpse of him passing through the room. I can tell they're going to be good friends.
Finn is no longer a licking, furry stranger to Olive. Though he is no more friendlier to her, she LOVES Finn and laughs at the mere sight of him. I'm pretty sure that Finn still hopes that we will drop Olive off at a farm but I think she'll win him over eventually.
The moment that we never thought would happen has come: we can put Olive down in her crib awake and she'll roll around and play until she falls asleep. It's such a nice treat that she's decided that she'll grant us this small miracle.

I am going to try and create a haiku to go with my photo each week. :-)
