Another Year, Another Challenge...

My readers (all two of you, lol) might remember I posted a few times last year on my Project 52 for photography.  I had joined up with the My Four Hens Photography Challenge, better know as M4H 52.
I was honored to have 5 or 6 of my pictures chosen for Eye Candy this last year.
Sarah Cornish at M4H has started another challenge for 2013.
Week 1 was Time...

I want to be in charge of these tools, not them in charge of me.

Week 2's theme was Pieces of Me


Surrounded by all the pieces of me...
my kids, my father-in-law's piano, my dad's and mother-in-law's artwork, vintage quilts passed down, my grandmother's afghan,
so many little pieces of me.

Week 3  Daily Routine


Maybe this is still on my Resolutions list...
out to the gym, 5 days a week, rain or shine.

Week 4 - Favorite Color

Well, this is a toss-up. I knew immediately what I wanted to do. I wanted to hang all my pretty sea-foam green and aqua shirts on my clothes line, and have them blowing gently in the breeze. 
Ok... that line is in Colorado and I am not. Right now, anyway. So... I hang my shirts up to dry in the kids bathroom. So that's where I got my shot...


Remember I said this was a toss-up?
Because not only does the color sea-foam and/or turquoise speak to my soul, so do this next group of colors. 


Fiestaware Colors!

I love these colors. So vivid, so refreshing, so energetic!

Me, on a good coffee day!

Here is a photo 'borrowed' from www.fatmumslim.com.au , May Photo of the Day Project.

It's my goal to take a picture everyday that matches the theme.



I also hope to post them on here, lol!

Here's pix from weeks 16 and 17. I am not sure where 15 is and I haven't gotten around to week 18 yet, I am a little behind,

M4H Weeks 3 - 6, Playing Catch Up!

It's been a little while since I've posted.... life has been full!

Here are my submissions for weeks 3 - 6 for M4H 52 Challenge. You can find the group on Flickr.com


Week 6 - Emotion




Week 5 - Simplicity





Week 4 - Imperfection




Week 3 - Inspiration



Thinking of a shot for each weekly theme has been a true challenge.
I sometimes wish she'd request something like 'child with pet',  that would be soooo easy!

I have enjoyed the challenge though and am blown away by some of the submissions entered.
