water [33/52]

posted by on August 21, 2011 · 5 Comments

I decided to try something new for this week's prompt, "water".

Well, new to me :)

Anyway ... here's my take on it - strawberries in sparkling water. Not terribly original, but fun nonetheless.

This last one is my favourite, I think. I love the sparkles. There's quite a bit I can pick on with these shots, but I'm going to shut up, let it be, and say 'not bad for a first attempt'.

(my lighting skills really need work though ... can't help saying that)

Short and sweet post this week, and late as it is. I've gone back to work and have typically been running two steps behind myself ever since :)

keep your cool {208/365}

I received an invite today from the talented Maureen to join their new flickr group, an extension of  their cool new site, Mortal Muses.

(or is it the other way around - Muses is an extension of their flickr group?)

(well now I'm confused)

(like that's new)

Their theme for this week is "stay cool"

keep your cool 208/365

You could pretend that's an ice cold beer if you prefer, but the pellegrino bottle is prettier ;)

Fun stuff, Maureen ... thanks for the invite!

At this rate with all of the groups I've joined, if you ever hear me complain of a lack of ideas or inspiration feel free to slap me in the head, okay?

PS - 100mm, not 50 ;)

gazing {152/365}

Hanging out in my neighbour's yard again.  What can I say?  He has interesting stuff :)

152/365

This is an outdoor water fountain type thing and I had ideas of catching the water flowing down the sides, all soft and slow-motion like.

Yeah, that sucked.

But this, I kind of like.

It seems that when I set out to photograph something in particular, when I have an idea in my head, it somehow never ends up the way I envision.

And I think I like it that way.

Well ... most times :p
