Week 3

This week was all about shallow depth of field

- one of my favourite styles of photography.

My final choice

Week 2 - Shallow depth of field

Our girl is such a tom boy

Other ideas..........

Week 2

This week's theme was silhouettes....

and man did I struggle.

Other people in the group were heading out to west coast beaches

making use of their awesome skills, the stunning sunsets, 

hazy skies etc.

Me.....I had a back yard full of bush and not much skill.

So when it came to getting a pic for this week 

I tried sooo many options.

In the end I got one I was .....happy-ish with.

But it was a mission and to be honest, not a huge amount of fun.

Oh well.....

My final choice: 

Week 2 - silhouette

Backyard yucca

(FYI - photographing yucca plants can be a dangerous and prickly job!)

Just mucking around:

And this one just because it is funny.......

Week 1

The new year begins with a new photographic challenge.
