Week 2 Catch Up - Illustrate A Song

Week 2 has such a wonderful theme! I had a lot of songs in mind..."Like a Rolling Stone" by Dylan ..."Romeo & Juliet" by Dire Straits... and a few others were on my list. However, I was listening to the radio in the car and an oldies came on by Boyz II Men..."It's So Hard To Say Goodbye"...and I knew this was the song I wanted to do....

I thought about old pictures scattered on the floor showing memories of my mother and my family...that was the concept. I was sort of in a rush so I came up with a photo and edited it to focus mainly on the picture of my mom....

"How do I say goodbye to what we had? 

The good times that made us laugh 
Outweigh the bad. 



I thought we'd get to see forever
But forever's gone away 
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday. ......"



While editing, I realized that the photo also works with another oldies song "The Way We Were" by Barbara Streisand....
"Mem'ries, 

Light the corners of my mind 
Misty water-colored memories 
Of the way we were 
Scattered pictures, 
Of the smiles we left behind 
Smiles we gave to one another 
For the way we were ...."

PATRICIA | OUTDOOR BEAUTY PORTRAIT SESSION

"A warm smile is the universal language of kindness " - William Arthur Ward Most of the times, we want models to have a far away serious pose..it gives the photograph mystery and drama. This model certainly has that down...she is awesome at projecting.... Yet, what I love about shooting her is her smile... it also has that mystery like you just want to know what mischievous plan is she brewing up now... very lovely... Here is Patricia from the Basic modelling workshop on June18, 2016 PATRICIA https://www.facebook.com/369708589743959/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1057573924290752 For Classic Beauty Portrait Sessions, you may send me a message on my facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/EarthlyVisionz/ Smile and Stay Beautiful...Happy Shooting...

Week 3 Catch Up - Shades of Grey

I am almost all caught up with the themes. I have the next 2 themes ready and just need to post them here on my blog.  So, this post is a catch up for week 3, Shades of Grey. I love taking sky pictures because of the beautiful colors. I decided, though, that this photo still looks great in black and white because of the brilliant sun. So here's my submission for the theme.... This was taken on January 31, 2011 at Villa Escudero. Taken with Samsung GT-I8000 (cellphone) F-stop f/2.8 Exposure time 1/16384 sec ISO-50 Edited with Picasa 3 - made black & white, adjusted tuning I also wanted to post a picture that my hubby took that also works with the Shades of Grey Theme....it's my sister-in-law's Dog (Zoey's) best friend...."Cat" (aka 'Ket")..... I'm still trying to convince hubby to join in with the photo challenges....

MCP Project 52 Photo Challenge

This year I have joined several challenges....a crafting challenge...a jewelry challenge... and now I am officially joining a photography challenge. I've actually wanted to come up with a theme for each week and host a challenge myself. However, this has proven to be a difficult task to handle. So instead, I am joining the folks at MCP Project 52. They are currently on week 4...so I am already late. I do want to catch up, though because after scanning through the past themes, I found them quite engaging. So, this blog was created to display my photos and tell you a bit more about why I decided to take them....If you'd like to join in, stop by the website . Anybody can join at anytime!
