Northeast Bloggers January photo challenge: Snow

January 24, 2014

Snow and winter and covered bridges.

Snow and winter and covered bridges.

As you all know, I’m a sucker for photo challenges.

One blogging group – The Northeast Bloggers Network – that I am part of has a monthly photo challenge. One photo with a theme.

This month’s theme? Snow. Like I had an issue with finding something in regard to that, right? There’s plenty of snow around here. However, I’ve decided to go with one photo that has snow … but it’s more of a winter scene I love to try and capture each year.

nephotoIn our area, we have some great and historic covered bridges. I’m a huge fan of these bridges and always love to try and capture them in every season. As I was driving home from work, I passed this one and saw this picture.

I had to turn around.

Of course I snapped a bunch of photos with the phone (and shared on Instagram), but I also pulled out my main camera and did some shots, trying to capture the winter feel of it being cold and crisp, which I think I did.

I always think winter helps the blue sky pop that much more and I’m quite happy I turned around. The sun was in a perfect spot, the sky was brilliant and the snow was enough to give a winter feel, but not hamper the shot. Though, I can’t lie, I would have liked to have seen a little more snow on the road as I think it would have added just a bit more to the photo.

In the end, I am quite excited with the shot and can see me blowing this one up and framing it to hang down the line.

Northeast Bloggers October photo challenge: Movement

October 24, 2013

It’s been a few months since I participated in the Northeast Bloggers Network challenge, so I wanted to get back in it this month.

When I do a challenge or a linkup, I like to make sure it’s a blog post and not just a link to an image somewhere. It makes it feel more like a challenge.

This month’s theme was “movement.”

For it, I decided to keep it a bit simple.

A couple of weeks ago, I was in South Jersey for a few days. A couple of those days were spent at the Cape May County Zoo, which has several baby animals that have been born in the past few months.

The one I really wanted to see was the baby giraffe, which was born on Sept. 2. Of course the first day we went, it was rainy. So the baby (or any of the giraffes) wasn’t out. We went back a day or two later and we got the chance, thankfully, to see it.

This photo shows the movement.

Basically, the mother giraffe was nudging the little one along to get walking and explore. It was fun to watch.

Harper got her first foul ball (as you can see she enjoyed!) and we also had the chance to grab a couple others and give them to some other dogs. All in all, four dogs walked away with balls!

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.

The theme for Week 3 of the 52-week video challenge was "Show your process of making something." Alas, I didn't get the time to do what I wanted to do, so I attacked something I filmed over the summer that I kept putting off.
