Photograph a Day Challenge


Recommended Posts

Day 6 - Cinema visit with DH - watched 'Eye in the Sky' thought provoking movie.

Day 7 - Ring road closed for major works and not a car in sight, I cycled to the supermarket to get some milk so that I can have a cup of tea with my scrap girl friends from across the world whilst we chat online. :circle:

I use this road daily but didn't fancy a detour so I cycled. :D

I find it a bit awkward thinking what to photograph but it seems easier just pointing the camera at everyday life. :)

I didn't check out the challenges until this morning, so took all my photos today. They are all of where I live - in a continuing care

retirement community (for seniors) in northern California. About 600 of us live in the independent living part of the community.

My apartment looks down on the beautiful courtyard. I helped design the quilt hanging near our mailroom.

Thanks Andrea. Here's another photo this week taken at the nursery. I bought this plant and wanted to capture the care details on the sign. I cropped it, increased contrast, decreased clarity, up on highlights, and added a vignette on the "after" photo.
