The Purpose, the Journey, and the Fun along the way

Here we are, two moms who love our cameras and miss our college art classes and colleagues. With a family it can be difficult to find time for the creative process. Emily and I are using this blog as a way to have fun, work on our photography, keep each other accountable, and be creative!

Each Monday one of us will post a challenge for us both to complete and post a response to by Friday that week. Over the weekend, if time permits each of us will also critique the other's work.

We hope to use this blog as a way to grow together as photographers as we continue to grow as mothers.

If you happen to stumble upon our blog, and want to join in, feel free! Just post your response, with a link to your photos in the MckLinky link for that week. Challenges stay open for three weeks after they are posted.

Challenge #34

Hey, Everyone!
Sorry I didn't get this up sooner- a little boy needed my attention earlier when I was thinking of this, and I forgot until now.
Anyways, here's the challenge:

Broke Down

Submit 3 photos of the same subject from different angles or different distances
Take these as B&W images
Tweeking is OK.
Have fun!!!!

Sick Day

Hey Guys,

I got the flu this weekend and decided not to do a photo challenge this week. I'm going to take it easy and hopefully will be in top shape next week.

So for this week, take the week off!

I'll see you next Monday!

The Theme: WORK

The Challenge: To portray an idea using one single image

The Rules: One photo, no tweaking, due Sat. Sept. 12 (MckLinky will stay open till the 15th)

:) Have a great week!
