This began as a photo a day for a year with pictures taken with me phone. Then we did a color a month. 100 Posts of Happy followed that. More fun little projects will continue!

The day I drew it we went to the Circle - so of course I had to get the fountain!

| One of my favorite things is reflections in water |
And of course the best Water shots are at the beach!
Ok - so unfortunately it seems this deck may be more geared for things I'd set up myself. For instance - I drew "Bowl of water with something next to it". I gave myself a pass and drew another one. Got High Contrast lighting. I almost put it back, but thought no....I need to do this.
No. No I don't.
My goal is to pull a card and be inspired to look for these sorts of things whilst in my every day life. Trying to help my eye see the creative.
I do like the idea of setting up shots, but that's not what I was searching for. Not right now anyway.
So - I held on to High Contrast Lighting for a few weeks (I'm also not sticking to the weekly anymore) and thought - you know what?! It's ok! I'm literally doing this by myself. There's no rules.
So here's the 1 high contrast lighting shot I got in 3 weeks that wasn't something I set up and I'm now going to draw cards until I get something that I can work into every day life.
Let's see what the next draw brings...
Ok ew - but let's get creative shall we?

| Oooooo Spiderwebs in the early morning are fun! |

| And snails are kinda cute! |

I actually kept this card for 2 weeks hoping to find some more ways to photograph but with our awful winds and just no damn butterflies or bees it seem, I just gave up on this one.
I did get a few.
On to the next.
So I know this is mixed in amongst my Photo a Week(s) Cards but Noel, Renee and I did a "Color Quest" one day. We hit up the OC Circle about 10am and Renee did a little generator thing and assigned us colors!
I'm really trying to get creativity back into my life in any way I can find. I really enjoyed just walking around an area I'm familiar with looking at it differently because I was searching for a color.
I got blue!
Here's my grid!

| Kind of love the house, dumpster and sky - all various blues |

| I'm such a fan of cool doors |

| Another cool door |
Although I did pretty good this week, but I feel like it was an easier one and I was going somewhere where I did get a lot of pics, I may push these to 2 weeks apart if I'm struggling finding subjects. I realized I work M-F...so I'm basically in the same spot, so I may not get chances. So we'll see. Or I'll just extend however long I feel...not sure...still kind of figuring out this project.
Anywhoo!
OLD WOOD!
I was excited for this one and am happy with some of my shots!

| As soon as I pulled the card, I thought my busted up planter would be perfect! |

| Love Pat and Rascal in the distance |

| I'm always going to love depth of field |

| Wish I could have got closer, but it had cameras and may have disturbed people |
