Here was my shot on Monday of Laughter.
I just tried to lighten it up a bit so those laughs could be seen even better.
I have learned a lot since taking this picture about shooting into the light.
Here is another from that day that I really love!!!
Tho managing that with my new 50 buddy is tending to be more of a challenge than I expected.
I know, I said that yesterday too.
Won't it be nice when I am no longer fussing about that.
I will work on that...sorry.
You know I meet with my bible class on Thursday.
I was sitting in a totally different seat today than usual because I was running late.
I couldn't remember if I had let The Shelbster back in the house and didn't want her stranded out in the hot with no water.
I had!
I was late.
Anyway, this would usually be behind me but was to the left of me today because of where I was sitting.
I suppose I didn't really need to tell you all of that, but I did. HA!
The sun was striking it, making it call out to me.
I almost didn't post the image though because of all the spent blooms.
I thought the imperfection of it ruined the beauty of the picture.
Then I caught myself.
I sure have some imperfections and don't want the good in me thrown away because of my flaws.
That is why God gave us friends I suppose.
They see the best in us and ignore or better yet, help to prune off the imperfections in our lives.
So the picture got saved and there it is for you.
There were three of these plants about, all with very different leaf art to them.
Enjoy!!!
God's creation is almost more than I can really take in some days!
Whoa, sorry that this post is so choppy and weird. I have done it in a big hurry with lots of distractions.
Such is my life...you know that by now right??
Ya know - I kept looking at your photo in the pool. I am completely in love with your SOOC. I'm not sure that you had to do anything but it still looks nice.
ReplyDeleteThat brighten really made your laughter photo work... dark photos plague me when the sun is out. I used to think it was ideal for shooting... I still love the natural light though.
ReplyDeleteYour leaf photos are pretty... sounds like you had a long day. Glad you kept your pic and really true what you said.
Oh Ashley, I couldn't figure out why in the world you would be relaxing in the pool looking at photos...then I finished off my coffee and read your comment again! hee hee!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the opinion.
@Ostrander....I assumed my son would return from camp yesterday around 8pm freeing me up to post a lovely blog about our "spent blooms". Ended up they were on target to arrive home at 5 and I was racing to try to prepare a feast and a homemade chocolate cake for his return!
It seems like more often than not I create those long days for myself! Ahhhh, such is my life right now!! (and I love it!)
