Here we are at the beginning of a new Beyond class…..Beyond Beyond. Our first challenge was to take at least 10 shots of something without moving or changing the position of the subject. My first thought was to photograph Winston, but that would have required teaching “stay” – maybe a goal for the future.
While sauntering down the T.J.Maxx isles I spotted a frog prince garden figure and knew immediately he’d a. look cute by the pond this summer and b. his colors are great for this assignment. Saturday was the first sunny day all week and even though I had puppy selection appointments all day – it was fun to slip away in between and snap a few photos of the frog. This one is my favorite…..
I imagine that my frog prince, like me, is day dreaming about a warm summer day.
I love looking at him from the other side, however I’m not as fond of the house in the background….
and a little Rad Lab fun…
Even though my life can get wild and crazy with the dogs, I love making the time for Beyond, Beyond. The challenges are fun, my treat to me after the “dog chores” are complete – notice, I don’t require myself to do anything housework/laundry related to obtain my reward.
I took at least 50 shots and the ones I thought I’d like the best were not ultimately my favorites. Best of all, working in Photoshop saved me from yet another of hubby’s Netflix selections – YAY!
