NEW photographic inspiration

Posted on by

Hola amigos! Happy Tuesday!

So, I’ve been disappointed lately that I haven’t been out shooting more. Life is busy. But today I decided to just go in my backyard and try something NEW! I was very inspired by the impressionistic look from a recent post at melinda anderson photography using the camera shake method. I thought her “Wildflower Impressions” photo was so beautiful. So I tried it. It’s rather FUN! What do you think?

Here is a “normal” shot of the daisies. AND, we finally got rid of the ugly plastic edging and put pavers on the sides of our garden path. So that is another NEW thing!

Lesson learned. Even when I’m busy…getting prepared for a son’s wedding, working long hours at the day job, preparing for our upcoming Europe trip, yardwork etc., I need to take the time and have fun with my camera. This only took a few minutes, and now I have an impressionist photo to enjoy. Thank you to Melinda Anderson for the inspiration!

Have a wonderful day! I hope you do or learn something NEW today!

a NEW thought Thursday

littleconsideration

Happy Thursday! I love this quote because it is so true.  I know some people who are just naturally considerate.  They notice things about people.  They naturally go out of their way to be considerate and kind.  I want to be more like them! Sadly, I tend to live in my small, busy little world and go about my own business. I wish I had the natural talent of being a noticer…a thoughtful observer…a naturally considerate human being. Although it doesn’t come naturally, I’m going to work at being such a person. Perhaps eventually it may become second nature!

Have a great day!  Go and notice something or someone NEW!
