62/365 Upside Down
“0937 Upside Down” There are some things that the iPhone just doesn’t do as well as the good old red display TI calculators from the 70’s!
61/365 Whimsical
“Words By Which To Live And Learn” Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!
60/365 Sweet Rest
“Sweet Rest” No resting was happening at our house today. Late this afternoon, with no idea was I was going to photograph for today’s prompt, I took a stroll outside. Looking at the closed buds on the irises, I decided that they were resting; there was my picture. “Awake!” As I made my way back around the house, a glimpse of purple caught my attention. Amidst all of the green stems and tightly closed buds was one early bloomer. On…
59/365 Up Close and Personal
“Icing on the Cake” During the month of February it seems like everyone except me photographed a cupcake in response to one prompt or another. I finally succumbed to peer pressure. Here is my icing on the cake as we bid farewell to this month of sweets and treats.
58/365 Essential Equipment
“Reality :1, Creativity: 0 For Monday through Thursday, this is the essential equipment I need to get through the day – lesson plans, keys, name badge and a pencil. I have accepted the fact that Wednesday’s photos are not going to be my most creative; however, this is as real as it gets.
57/365 From The Side
“Handle On Life” What makes someone think that photographing an everyday door handle is a good idea or even an interesting idea? When challenged to photograph something ” from the side,” most people would think profile – of a person. I never said that my mind works in the same way as most people’s. Or, for that matter, any people’s. I took this picture a few days ago, but intentionally for today’s prompt. It is the handle, from the side,…
56/365 A Cup Of . . .
“Measure Of Love” It is funny the things to which you find yourself drawn. This tin measuring cup belonged to Weber’s mom. Though I never knew her, I hear Weber’s stories, read recipes written in her hand and hold this measuring cup and somehow feel like maybe I do know her. Both the blessing and the curse of marrying at fifty years old, plus or minus a few years, is that neither of us had to deal with mother-in-laws. It…
55/365 For The Love Of Music
“This Is Why We Sing” Music has been a huge part of my life since I started taking piano lessons at age four. (If you are calculating, that is 47 years.) I am very fortunate to have a job teaching music theory. Though there were so many ways that I could have approached this prompt, I knew immediately that my photo of the day would somehow include Resounding Harmony. Singing with RH is, to me, what music is all about….
54/365 Framed
“I’ve Been Framed” It is amazing how much you can get done on a Saturday when you get up at 6am! We were up early because I had a 7:30 dentist appointment. (This appointment was original at 9, but Erin needed an emergency root canal and rather than make her get up for the early time, I swapped with her.) After we had both endured having our mouths tromped through, we went shopping for some accessories to go with her…
53/365 Sweet Treat
“Truth In Advertising” I don’t know if the prompts this week aren’t inspiring or if my photos are just uninspired, but I am not feeling the photographic love right now. Maybe this is because I have been at home for two days grading papers and doing laundry. Perhaps I need to get out into the real world over the weekend. Whatever the problem, I apologize for the less than exciting pictures. I may just be bitter about today’s prompt being…
