26. Cake
Some might argue that pavlova isn't strictly a cake, but I checked with google and it seems to be acceptable ;)
Either way, it was delicious :)
I finally drew a picture of me in South Kristen's R&R attire that she made for me! I hope you like it Kristen and I drew this in time for the challenge! Drawing my outfit was real fun. I didn't realize how much effort Kristen put into it until I drew it myself. :)
Something old.
I was struggling to find something to photograph for this part of the challenge, not because I don't have anything old, but because I am spoiled for choice!
In the end, I went with this old painted 26W night-light bulb, which has been gathering dust on a bookshelf since my daughter was little. I long since replaced all incandescent light bulbs in the house, and have nearly finished replacing the last few compact fluorescent bulbs with LED equivalents. As such, there is no way that I'm ever going to use this bulb again, but it's just too pretty to throw away.
Winter Scene
Challenge #163: Season: I love the whiteness of the snow in this photo! Notice how purely white it is as it freshly falls from the sky.

Not content with having a summer cotton/silk top and a cowl on the go, I decided to take on Andrea Mowry's Ravelry challenge, a Knitalong (KAL) to do a hat in five days. This is mine at the end of day one.

Ocean Challenge berthed in Macduff Harbour. Built in 2013 at the local shipyard as Jacqueline Anne, it's another fine example of the ever popular twin rig trawler.

Bibi is cooking up a storm in our new (it is old but new to us) Deluxe Reading Kitchen. And she would like to point out that our turkey needs no enhancement - it is enormous! (sorry Heidi)
I would also like to give thanks to Canada for that wonderful substance known as Maple Syrup :-)

CC Week 19: different perspectives
The challenge this week is to photograph our subjects from different or unusual perspectives.
It was interesting to see the way commercial growers manage their apple trees thesse days. While there are some old orchards with more traditionally shaped trees, most orchards now grow and train apple trees like this. Apples are the main crop in this area, though cherries and pears are also plentiful.
I've photographed and written about my bookish qualities before, and once again I find myself directing my art towards that area of my life. And here is why...
At first, I usually have no idea why I create what I create... until I find myself looking at the final edited image. To explain a bit more - when I create my images, I never consciously understand the reason behind my visions - as I am sketching, buying props, looking for a location, I put trust in my subconscious to take me along the right path. Because if you asked me what I was doing/looking for at the time, I definitely wouldn't be able to answer you. It's only as I build the image and put everything together do I finally realise WHY I created it. I finally figured out that this particular image represents how I feel about the book world and the challenge I have set for myself with reading. The last book-related image I posted on here was while I was in a reading slump, however, I was still purchasing a lottttt of books. Books that would be placed on a shelf and, sadly, never read... I vowed to change all of that this year and set myself a reading challenge of #25booksinayear. So far I have finished 10 and I'm currently on my 11th, 12th and 13th. (Yes, I do read more than one at a time!) Which has proven to me that my love of reading hasn't disappeared, it's just a matter of having time to spare and finding the right books to read. Which brings me to my current conceptual image - when I stop to think about how many books there are in the world to read and how little time I have to do it in, it completely overwhelms me. I may as well be 3 inches tall and every book as big as a house for all the hope I have for reading them all. Hopefully you will all join me in a reading challenge of your own - reading is LOVE!
Thanks SO MUCH to Holly Rose Stones for ALL of her help creating this image, as well as her tutelage in Photoshop. I usually use GIMP, but this, I'm proud to say, was done completely in PS. Please take a moment to check out her one-2-one workshops if you fancy learning from a brilliant self-portraitist.
This isn't a contest, there are no winners, this is a challenge, and you are all welcome to partake. In fact, I challenge you to.
I've come to realize there just aren't nearly enough sets of League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen figs on here, so I'm challenging all of you (even those of you I forgot to tag) to make them. Either purist or non-purist, comic-based or movie-based, it's up to you. Tag me, and I'll add them to an album (Or invite them all to a group if I can figure out how) that I'll build at some point.
To qualify, you've gotta have
-Mina Harker/Murray
-Alan Quatermain
-Doctor Jekyll and/or Mister Hyde (doesn't have to be a big-fig)
-Captain Nemo
-And The Invisible Man (gotta be a physical fig)
Dorian Grey and Tom Sawyer aren't essential, but you can make em if you want for extra credit.
Unfamiliar with the team? Familiarize yourself briefly with this handy wiki page! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_League_of_Extraordinary_Gentlemen
Any other questions you may have, sound em off.
UPDATE: NOW THERE IS A GROUP TO ADD YOUR PICS TO! www.flickr.com/groups/4035126@N22/
Cheers, everyone. I look forward to seeing what you all come up with!
