SAPCC #46 – Justapose/Juxtaposition

1 – Sometimes I have the perfect picture for the challenge & I just don’t execute it properly.  This is one of those.  My friend ordered this dinner at the bowling alley.  I took two shots but it was my turn to bowl so…

2 – Peas on penne vodka pizza? 

3 – What on earth is [...]

SAPCC #45 -Shine

I am running late because I went out looking for a better picture.  Eh.  I also found a new thing on photoshop – lighting effects   I can now sort of make a vignette effect.  The only bad thing is that it overexposes some of the light areas.  I am still learning & I [...]

SAPCC #44 – Nostalgia

Going to the fair is often nostalgic because of the temporary escape from reality.  Calories don’t count and for a few seconds, you can sit on top of the world dangling your toes in the wind.  For a dollar, you can see a giant horse or a midget.  I always opt for the giant horse.  Here is [...]

SAPCC #43 – Isolation

I finally got a new hard drive – 1TB… Woooohooo!  For the past three weeks, I have been limited in my abilities to edit photos because I had been moving videos, condensing them, deleting RAW files… It was a mess.  Add in too many events that needed photos and I have fallen behind. 
For “isolation,” I [...]

SAPCC #42 – Product

I have been waiting for a theme like this for about 35 weeks. I have always wanted to try my hand at making a plain backdrop & shooting a product in an ad-like format.  Unfortunately, some things happened that prevented me from taking the time to do that so, instead, I used my foster kitten, Billie [...]

SAPCC #41 – Risk

I didn’t find the theme until Monday so I didn’t shoot for the theme this week and I am late.  Luckily, I had our bulldog friend, Reggie, visiting.  As he was sleeping on the couch, I took one look at him (maybe a few looks) & ran downstairs to get my camera before he moved.  [...]

SAPCC # 40 – Traffic AKA – Why the auto industry is failing (PT 1)

My best friend & I used to play a game called “mine.”  When we were driving around, we would point out the nicest cars on the road and claim them as ours by shouting “mine.”  She usually opted for Mercedes & BMW while I tended to call the convertibles.  The real fight was over the [...]

Sequel to “Obstructed”

How did I wind up with “ps” in front of my real post for this week when that is what I would have called this right here?  I know I am not a great typist & I am often too lazy to spellcheck things, but isn’t that something I should notice hanging out in front [...]

ps SAPCC #39 – Obstructed

I am actually quite behind in my photo editing & I fear that after I post this, I will find better images to fit the theme but I do not want to fall behind again so here are the best of what I have so far.
On Monday, we visited the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia.  [...]
