Photo A Day ~ Week 2


Week 1 was so much fun that I had to continue. So for this week we have Days 10-16
10. Loud, 11. Entertainment, 12. warmth, 13. In the Sky, 14. I love..., 15. A Challenge, 16. Broken

Day 10 ~ Loud
I don't necessairly believe in a favorite album... that being said however, I do play this one a lot. And when I play it I do it loudly very, very loudly so that everyone can hear the goodness of BTS

Day 11 ~ Entertainment
The most entertainment I have is listening to BTS, reading BTS, watching their videos, and most importantly communicating with ARMY. So when it comes to entertainment the natural selection is BTS

Day 12 ~ Warmth

Living in Missouri there are just not enough warm days so to stay warm one must bundle up in the puffiest coats and head out to enjoy the Tesla's one can never afford.

Day 13 ~ In the Sky

I took this beauty outside in my backyard. This is my favorite tree to attempt to draw or capture on film. I just love it

Day 14 ~ I love

I know my furbaby has a lot of photos on here but in reality she is the one I love. I mean come on look at those eyes.

Day 15 ~ A Challenge
 
I have no idea why taking a picture of my food with a camera no less is so freaking hard for me. I just can't seem to get the scale, or ISP right. Phone no issues what's so ever but damn it I try with a camera and it is like the worst ever so much editing done to make it look remotely good 

Day 16 ~ Broken

I took this as more of a broken view. I just couldn't seem to get a good picture of this church from any angle it was all broken up by wires and streets or houses and clouds. So I went with this shot.

Photo A Day Challenge ~ Week 1


So it began... Please see last week's post (here) in order to understand what and why I am doing all these in a week. 

Day 1 ~ Winter


Winter in the Midwest has always been it or miss. The longer I live though it seems to be a mild winters with lots of ice. This is a few days after a snow/ice storm and while it is currently 45 degrees outside winter has still left it's mark on the town. 

Day 2 ~ Frozen


This day I mainly focused on my editing program to see what effects I could do and what I could play with. I have to say that it was fun taking pictures of the ice on my deck. The editing tool I used was Lightroom and I am truly enjoying it.

Day 3 ~ Where I sit
 

So this was a fun one to take. I tried different angles and positions trying to replicate what it is like when I sit. However, the dog was having none of the attention the cat was getting so she made sure I snapped a good photo of her. So I sit on a love seat to watch TV and to read sometimes the floor hence the dog and her attention.

Day 4 ~ Straight



I took this prompt as a way to play in Lightroom and this is what I got. Straight lines :) I am actually kind of proud of this picture play around. 

Day 5 ~ Up High

This was taken at a museum in Philly when I was on vacation but never had the time or idea of how to edit it. I quite like it. 


Day 6 ~ Down the Road



This is down the road in my alley so technically down the road :) 

Day 7 ~ Furry Friend



This is my baby Nix AKA puppy. She loves to watch me do everything!

Day 8 ~ Circles


When in doubt always go with beer ;) 

Day 9 ~ Starts with a T





T was hard I couldn't think of anything and then I remembered tea like literal tea. However, before I could remember that I went to a flashback of meeting the Thor cast at a Wizard World and poof my T was Thor AKA Chris Hemsworth 
Sooooo worth it.

Photo A Day



Whelp I have discovered that I have absolutely no hobbies. I mean like none. Yes reading is something I enjoy but it is real easy to come home from work and crash on the couch with nothing to do but zone out for hours. While that works to a point it doesn't help with stress. In case you weren't aware I work in a highly stressful job and I need a way to distress for lack of a better word. I also need something to be passionate about. I have always enjoyed art and I love to take photos but have never had the confidence to really explore that so I wanted to try that with photography. One I already have a camera that is pretty decent. Old but still working. Two I am going on some amazing trips this October and next March so I wanted to have some practice under my belt. This was a way to do this. So I started my own Photo A Day Challenge. I pulled from lots of sources for topics and I thought I would give it a month. My goal is to post the pictures once a week and discuss them if I need to.
