Abstract

Here's my abstract for the Friday Fun Challenge....last Friday....I've really missed blogging on here. It just feels like life has been so busy lately! The first photo is my abstract, the next two are just some fun shots in a huge tree on our day at the beach last Saturday.








On a side note, I've really missed all of my blogging friends! I'm trying to simplify and thinking about combining this blog with my other one....http://www.amandajouppiphoto.blogspot.com I'm wondering if you'll follow me over there. :)

Wednesday-Saturday

nature

I thought this one was cute.


I found this rocking chair at a thrift sale on Friday! I'm trying to decided if I should paint it or do something different with it. Ideas?



my attempt at texture....it looked different before I resized for web.

Tuesday {Aperture}

I'm not usually one to do quotes, but I thought this photo needed a little something extra. I'm a little confused as to what Henry meant. Does he mean your hair won't gray if you sleep in and/or don't disturb things like dew? Does he mean that you won't live long if you don't get up early? I'm not really sure.... What do you think? Also, is it ok to quote like this on a photo as long as you credit the source? I'm really not sure of the rules with this. If you think I'm infringing , please let me know so I can take it down. Thanks for looking! :)

EDIT TO ADD: (8:52 central)

I found another quote that I like better for this photo. :)

Monochromatic Monday

I have few tulips this year. They just started blooming. Some years they bloom and other years the rabbits eat them before they have a chance. I took these with color in mind and then tried two different conversions from Pioneerwoman just to see how they would look. Which one is your favorite?

Saturday and Sunday.

I made this Greek salad today! It looks so good I had to take a photo of it!


The pear tree is already blooming! It seems really early. I took my blossom photos last year around Mother's day.


I had much better luck today with the "make a wish" photos. I used my 55-200mm lens.
