My photography class has ended, but now I am taking Sketching & Watercolor – Journal Style with Jane LaFazio so for the next few weeks, I’ll have some of that work to post here. This week’s lesson was in drawing and painting fruit. What I did does actually look like fruit so mission accomplished! The colors […]
This week’s challenge was to create a text overlay in Photoshop:
Way back in March I took a photo that I shared here of snow on my deck. At the time I thought, “Gee, I wish that I could leave the color in the patio umbrella” because it’s a bright blue that would have looked great against the snow. Now, I know how to do that:
This week’s Photo Challenge was actually a “Do Over” week. Since I’ve been doing a lousy job of getting my homework done lately, I had plenty of challenges to choose from. I was struck by the light coming through the shade in my laundry room so I decided to do the “White-on-White” challenge with a […]

This is my husband at the top of Mont Ventoux, a.k.a “The Beast of Provence” in 2004. (I rode up in the […]
Yes, “Footwear” was the photo challenge for this week. Since we were also supposed to do something with perspective, I composed this big/ medium/ small photo of my family’s footwear: (I know, you really didn’t need to see a picture of my shoes.)
This week’s Photo Challenge was not a hard one. The assignment was to take close ups of flowers, which I think that I have been doing since I first picked up a camera. Coneflowers this time.
I guess this photo is an odd choice this week. The Photo Challenge assignment was “celebration,” but I didn’t get it done. I was too busy celebrating being home from England and making a red, white and blue cake for the July 4th picnic. (You know that saying about if you’re a hammer, everything looks […]
