layers {159/365}

posted by on · 12 Comments

Ogres are like onions.
They stink?
Yes... NO!
Oh, they make you cry.
No.
Oh, you leave em out in the sun, they get all brown, start sproutin' little white hairs ...
NO!  Layers! Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. You get it?  We both have layers.
Ohhh!  you both have layers!  Oh.
... you know, not everybody like onions.

Today's prompt from Creativity Boot Camp is "multilayered". And although quite a few ideas crossed my mind, the first (and the one that just stuck) was 'me'.

We're all multilayered, aren't we?

Everybody is.

and when you choose to see only the surface, when you accept only what's right in front of your face, you're going to miss out on a lot.

Do you ever have one of those days where you feel like you're chasing your own tail all day long?

Yeah, it's one of those.

Anyways ...

Day Two of Boot Camp!  Wooooot!

Today's prompt is "picnic".  Seeing as it's also Bench Monday, I though I'd kill two birds with one stone ...

158/365

and because I couldn't decide (as usual) a bonus Bench Monday ...

158alt

Such an overachiever.

*snort*

Empty bottle of wine, grapes, dishes and assorted cloths, courtesy of my wonderful neighbor, Rob. And you know what's funny?  Not a day earlier, another neighbor robbed him of his decor accessories to stage her house that's up for sale. Hilarious!

Rob's the go-to guy for cool stuffs.

The crate is mine.  Back off.

Pop Quiz time:  Did I? or Did I Not? write the letters on that chalkboard?  tick-tock!

boot camp {157/365}

I've hitched my wagon to Maegan Beishline's Creativity Boot Camp

boot camp

Creativity Boot Camp is a two week intensive e-course designed to take your creativity to the next level.

Well who couldn't use a creative boost?  I signed up right quick (because, y'know, I don't have enough stuff on the go ... I should really add some more) and today we start!

Today's creative prompt was IVORY.

I immediately thought piano keys.  Beautiful!

But I don't have a piano.

And then I thought ... elephants!!!

But I don't have an elephant either.

White flowers?

*snore* that's all I've been shooting lately.

soooo ...

157/365

HA! IVORY!!!

I have to say, I had a ton of fun setting up this shot.  And it was a bit of a complicated affair y'know.  Slippery wet hands and cameras do NOT mix.

My camera body is really, really clean now though ;)

Thanks Maegan for going above and beyond to put on this fun, FREE (yes FREE! how absolutely cool is she???) eCourse. Hitting the middle mark of my 365Project, this really couldn't come at a better time.   I'm totally looking forward to whatever comes next.
