#Project52 – Selfie
This week’s #EverydayProject52 challenge was the selfie. It’s something I could certainly use more practice with, as I always seem to take 20 bad ones for each good selfie.

This week’s them for #EverydayProject52 is Yellow. And while I don’t have much yellow in my wardrobe, I do still seem to have a lot of it in my life. Especially in my book collection. It’s a good thing I don’t arrange my books by color, like some people do. I think my shelves would…

Read More#OurProject52 – Still Life
I love to take photos of the little displays I make around the house and office, so it seems that I’m always taking still life photos. I have yet to figure out how to get the photos to come out beautifully, but I still really enjoy taking them. What tips do you have for taking…
Read More#OurProject52 – Celebrate
This has been a good week to get photos of celebration – it’s our local county fair. However, my side of the celebration at the fair always looks a little different, as my husband and I are volunteers out there and help to put it on (more him than me, but I help where I…
