Long Exposures

Whew!  Today is the last day to submit your long exposures to Nick and Shannon  (for those of you were participating in the most recent collaboration: Calling All Creatives)

Here are my submissions:

A waterfall in the Cougar Mt area

Seconds were in the double digits for this Seattle shot from Rizal park

Isaac walking towards me on a trail in Renton

And here are a few of the outtakes:

I almost like this one better than the one above…which do you prefer?

and a few light paintings, complex and simple:

paper lantern candle and lighter

My boyfriend’s name in lights

I think I need to find a more stable light source than this lighter. As you can see here it’s not a consistent stream of light

I’m excited to see what else other folks came up with for collaboration!

Thanks to Nick of Nick Exposed and Shannon from Seeing Spots Photography for challenging us!

Edited June 9th: Nick now has all the participant’s photos up! You can check them out here: Nick Exposed

Scavenger Hunt Sunday – June 3rd

Good Morning!

This week’s prompts were particularly hard for me, possibly because I came up with them? Maybe I was trying too hard because they were mine.

Anyway, a couple of them are a bit of a stretch, but bare with me this week. :) I’ll do better next time. (well, maybe.)

These cherries were the first of the season, and the sun was catching them in such a lovely way, they were like a lighthouse, lighting the way with their SHINE…

Long exposures in Rizal Park makes cars on I-5 look like they’re going so fast they could fly!

These tomatoes were LEFT in the ‘seconds’ bin because they weren’t up to snuff, but mine tasted just as delicious as the ‘firsts’ AND it had a little extra personality!

I find it to be very PEACEful, wandering through a community garden like this one in Bellevue. The rows of gardens, and how each family plants different things. All these little seedlings preparing for the summer make me happy. :)

My breakfast of PLAIN homemade sourdough and some strawberries might seem boring, but it’s actually the perfect way to start the day

As you may have already noticed, several of these are farmer’s market inspired. I went up to the Phinney Farmer’s Market on Friday for it’s opening day this year!
