30 Days of Photographs IV: Happily ever after

September 30, 2013

Awww, it’s like a fairy tale of sorts.

Well, not really.

Today is the last day of the 30 Days of Photographs challenge, brought to you by Mike and Ziva. Now, let’s remember, I didn’t participate in all 30 days. I barely keep up with other photo challenges as it is and I’m like six months behind in processing my photos … so 30 days wasn’t going to happen.

Alas, I enjoyed the few days I did participate in.

And with the end of every challenge, there’s happiness. So happily ever after seems fitting for the final day. And, to be honest, I thought about this one a bit. I’ve decided, as I’ve done before with this one, to break the rules a little.

OK, so this isn’t really a photograph. But if you don’t hit play, it is a screen capture look — so it’s a photo on here. Kind of.

Whatever, sue me.

This was a happiness ever after thing on the final day of the cruise I recently took. It was a happy night for sure and a great way to end the cruise.

OK, fine … you don’t want me to break the rules that bad? Whatever.

Then let’s go back to the cruise itself. I dined in the steakhouse one night. A five-course meal. This was the final course.

Talk about a happily ever after story. Booya!

Yeah…

For the days I participated, I really did enjoy the challenge. It was fun and I got to see some great stuff. That’s always nice.

Speaking of photo challenges…

For those of you participating in the monthly photo blogging challenge, remember September’s theme is done and the post should be up tomorrow. Come back to this blog to link up! I hope many of you participated as well.

I’ll also be posting October’s theme in two days.

30 Days of Photographs IV: Carnival

September 24, 2013

This was one theme I had to participate in with this crazy challenge.

See, I can do blogging challenges with crazy topics I need to write about. But a full month of photos with crazy topics? No way.

It’s a total zoo!

Better yet, it’s a carnival! Seriously, if you look at all these crazies doing this every day, it resembles a carnival. All those different personalities and different wares to hock. Heck, you know there are a few carnies, too.

Come play this game! You can win!

No way. I’ll skip.

So what else is great about carnivals?

The food!

Therefore, it would be silly not to have a little food to see what all these other people are posting about today. Munch away, folks.

Yum!

30 Days of Photographs IV: Frustration

September 22, 2013

In lieu of Soundless Sunday this week, I’m going to add another to the 30 Days of Photographs, which, when all said and done, will be something like the 8 Days of Photographs. Well, if I’m lucky.

Frustration was the name of this game.

I probably could have just posted a photo of myself, as I was trying to figure something to use for this one.

So I reached for professional wrestling. No matter if you like or hate the world of pro wrestling, the photo possibilities are endless. The emotions, reactions and actions are some of the best you can find.

That’s what I chose for “frustration.”

The “bad guys” in pro wrestling are often heckled by the crowd. But this guy really was getting into it. And, with that, comes the frustration on the face of the wrestler.

Has to be some frustration here, eh?

For the record, I had another photo I was going to use. It’s also professional wrestling. But, it’s a bit more graphic than this one. So if you want to see it, feel free to click here. But I’ve warned about the graphic part of it!

30 Days of Photographs IV: Transparent

September 20, 2013

I like these challenges where you pick and choose. It makes it oh so much easier.

I decided to jump into today’s theme for the 30 Days of Photographs IV because there could be so many meanings to this with photography. And, well, in humanity, too.

On the blog, I’m usually quite transparent. I don’t hide anything, for the most part, outside of some personal things that I don’t share with pretty much anybody. But I’m pretty open outside of those.

But I’m not much for having my photo taken. Such is the life of being a photographer. You know why else I don’t have my photos taken?

Because I’m lightning quick, that’s why!

You don’t believe me? Look at this shot below. Boom, boom — I was all over the place. Action photography can’t capture me!

Transparent, baby, transparent.

Being so fast makes you transparent!

30 Days of Photographs IV: My junk

September 17, 2013

Junk or no? You be the judge.

OK, so I’m pushing it a little here.

It’s not really my junk.

But considering I’m only in a couple days of this challenge, I figured I’d push the envelope a bit. And if somebody didn’t like it all that much? Well, one of the head honchos is in Finland, so I’m not too worried. Plus, it’s not like the leaders of said challenge haven’t pushed the buttons a little in my monthly challenge, right?

RIGHT?

On the tree = NOT junk. Definitely my tasty treat.

Exactly.

So anyway, this photo I’ve chosen for this challenge comes from picking apples yesterday. The goal of apples is to make an Apple Crisp Ale beer. Yeah, you heard right. Yum.

But that’s not junk, that’s pure awesomeness.

This place had so many apples and so many varieties. What caught my eye was the apples not on the trees. Are these junk? Still good? I don’t know. I stuck with plucking them off the trees.

Some on the ground looked fine. Some not so much. I imagine those would be junk. Maybe not mine, but you get the idea.

I look at her and sometimes still can’t believe I look at her and sometimes still can’t believe I have her. It’s been a year and four months and she makes me smile and laugh more each day. It’s amazing how much a dog changes your look on life, and how much joy they can bring.

This one is recent from the courthouse square in Delhi. We had some pretty good fall colors this year.

I had Harper so not a lot I could do, but I managed to get the cart off the chair. (See second photo) This was in a local park.

A video looking at my first year and a half of owning a golden retriever, my first dog. It's had its ups and downs, but I've truly loved the ride and look forward to the future.

I hate being in front of the camera, but also realize sometimes it's not the worst thing in the world. So, I'm getting better with it. Week 4's theme was all about us and having us in front of the camera, so I tried to come up with a creative way to do it.
