Titled “Shadows on the Wall”, this week’s prompt was High Noon. While out running errands with the boy today (oddly enough at a quarter past noon), I happened upon these shadows from the trees on the wall of a local restaurant. I liked the contrast and stark lines of them against the mostly solid-colored wooden wall and walkway.

This week, the prompt was complementary colors, which just left the whole world wide open on what to do. But, there was an extra challenge included, product photography. While thinking about what I wanted to do for this week’s prompt, it dawned on me that Elmer’s glue was blue and orange on the label, which would be perfect. Fits the prompt and adds in the extra challenge. I set them up on my desk at home and used my desk lamp to try and give some lighting. I used lightroom to enhance the colors. I call this photo “Creating Bonds.”

This past week’s prompt was macro and I wanted to take some time to actually focus on the prompt. I didn’t want to feel like I was rushing through just to get a show that fit. So, just after sunrise the morning the prompt was due, I found myself outside on a walk in the brisk morning air with my cameras. I stumbled upon this bush of holly berries – at least I think they’re holly berries, I’m not really sure honestly – and decided this was a great option for a macro shot.

I almost forgot to post this here for this week. Probably because it’s not my favorite photo and I kind of brushed it aside once I was finished to move on to something else.
