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.

Week Off

Hey guys, I just realized that it's almost Wednesday already. I think in light of the most recent events in my life it would be a good week to take off. Any suggestions for next week's challenge?

Challenge #37

Hello all you wonderful photographers out there!

While I was sitting here trying to come up with a suitable idea for this week's challenge, my husband threw one out there for me to think about as he headed into the other room. His idea got me brain storming and this is what I came up with.

In honor of Fall I thought we could focus on two opposites.

This week's Challenge:

Hot vs. Cold

The rules:

1.) Submit two photos exploring this idea.
2.) B/W or Colour is fine.
3.) Tweaking is allowed if you find you have the time.
4.) Please try and submit by this coming weekend (the 17/18) if you can't get at it right away no worries. I'm leaving the MckLinky open an extra week for late posters.)

See you this weekend!

3.) Submit by this weekend if you can.
4.) Make sure you post the inspiration behind your photos as well as it's source.

Have a great week!
