Scavenger Hunt Sunday 03.23.14

Hey there!  Happy Spring!  Welcome to another Scavenger Hunt!  This time I'm the sponsor of the list so I had to make sure to play along.  :)  So let's get right to it!

{leading lines}

Leading lines are lines within an image that lead the eyes to another point in the image.  This is one technique that I need more practice with, which is why I suggested it as a prompt.  This is not the photo I originally had in mind for the prompt, but I didn't get a chance to make the other one happen.  It's okay though because we needed a more recent photo of Keira with her violin.  And just a little shout out for my girl - she is now 1st violin/1st chair in her school orchestra!  WOOT!

{relationship}

Alex picked his Bible to read the other evening for homework.  (He reads to me or his dad every night for practice).  I love seeing my kids digging into God's word.  And I pray that he will continue to grow in his relationship with the Lord.

{good morning!}

It is a good morning when the sun is shining.  Even if the only way I can see it now is through the trees.

{together}

Keira and I went to get our eyes examined together this week.  She needs a slight prescription.  As you can see, her glasses are done already.  It will take some getting used to - seeing her with glasses.

{project}

Just a snapshot of part of a page from my 2012 Project Life album.  The album that still isn't completed yet.  {sigh}  :)

Thanks for stopping by!  Make sure you go visit Ashley for more Scavenger Hunt finds!  And have a great week!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday 09.29.13

Hello!  Welcome to the last Sunday of September!  Life is flying by at warp speed these days so I'll just get right to the hunt ...

{rule of thirds}

We've been having dew in the mornings now that it is cooling off so much at night.  One morning this week, I was able to get out to have some more fun with my new lens.  

{made me smile}

A friend of mine asked me to take her family photos yesterday morning at their camp by the river.  On the way there the sun was shining and beautiful and I was worried that we should have gotten an earlier start.  But by the time I got down to their campground, it was terribly foggy.  Then I was concerned that the fog would interfere with our session.  Until I noticed a man walking his dogs along the river bank and all I could see were their silhouettes.  Inspiration hit me and this is one of the first photos I took of this lovely family.  A foggy silhouette.  Accentuated a bit in post processing.  It's fun to get artsy sometimes.

{lines}

Alex has been asking to have his pictures taken on train tracks for a while now.  So Friday evening we set out to find some that we could use.  I'm using this for "lines" as in leading lines.  A technique I still have yet to master.

{alone}

My baby girl went to her first homecoming dance last night.  Even though she went alone, she met up with some friends there and had a great time.  (On a side note, I would really love it if someone would please slow time down.  I'm not ready for this next phase of our lives.)  :)

{together}

The boys and I went to a fall festival yesterday afternoon where there was a civil war encampment set up.  Together, Alex and Nick were trying to figure out how to make this cannon work.  Thankfully they didn't figure it out.  

That's it for me today.  Hope you have a wonderful week!  And be sure to visit Ashley for more great Scavenger Hunt finds!

But before you go, be sure to go check out the books I'm giving away.
