Summer Challenge Winners!

Summer is coming to an end, fall will be here before we know it. School, jeans, hoodies, leaves everywhere, and my favorite thing about fall-cross country. I digress, I am not a die-hard football fan like a lot of people. :)

As promised, we are posting the winners today! We have two winner's,  Emily Ruth from Borrowing Photographs, and Rebecca from Rebecca Howsley Photography. Congratulations, ladies! :) Check out the winner's blogs and their posts to see the pictures that won! :)

I would like to apologize for not having any challenges this month. That is entirely my fault, and while I was indeed extremely busy, I have no real excuse.

With our summer challenge over and September right around the corner, I am not sure what we will be doing this fall. Currently, I think the plan is to take a break from challenges for awhile. Do you have any special requests for what you would like to see on the blog?


Have a lovely rest of summer :)

Summer Challenge: Light

If you're reading this, then I am gone, far far away at camp! :) I've scheduled this post for my absence, but due to my very full computer, and the fact I'm leaving in less than 15 minutes for camp, I don't have time to put a picture in the post. :(

Summer has awesome lighting, in my opinion. Winter, just not so much. Maybe it's the longer days. :) You get to have two weeks to take the perfect picture showing off light. I'm excited to see what people come up with.

Rules: 1.The picture you submit must be taken by you between July 18th and July 25th 2012. The Linky will close Wednesday July the 25th, so make sure you link up before then. ;)
2. You may only enter one picture per contest, if you have more than one in your post, please specify which one you are entering.
3. If at all possible, list settings used to take it. (Camera, lens, date taken, time (even if vague, early afternoon, late evening, etc), ISO, shutter speed, and aperture.) You can find most of this info in the properties of your picture if you forget what settings you used.
4. Editing is allowed, if you choose to edit, please tell us what you did to edit your picture! :)
5. If you don't have a blog, but would like others to see your photo, email me (my email can be found on the 'About Us' page) and we will post it/link it up for you!

Summer Challenge: Weather

As I'm sure many of you know, America has been lacking rain this summer. 26 states are experiencing drought. Mine hasn't seen rain for way to long. Everything is dying, we're under a state wide burning ban, and I know it's like this in many other states too.

Tonight it started storming. I love thunderstorms, and I am really thankful for this one, we desperately needed rain. It's so cool to see how God has sent us rain after all this dryness.

So, even if you don't have rain where you live, we'd love to see a picture interpreting your weather.

Rules: 1.The picture you submit must be taken by you between July 18th and July 25th 2012. The Linky will close Wednesday July the 25th, so make sure you link up before then. ;)
2. You may only enter one picture per contest, if you have more than one in your post, please specify which one you are entering.

Summer Challenge: Projects

Along with summer comes projects, whether big or small, at least one usually finds a way to squeeze it's self in there. If we really stop to think about it, then we realize how many 'projects' we are doing at once!

I'm doing the project 365 (366, I suppose, since it is a leap year! ;), so that could count. I just finished a mile streak, where I ran or walked one mile everyday from Memorial Day to the 4th of July. I'm working on countless 4-H projects.

Be creative and share with us an exciting project from your week! :)

 Rules: 1.The picture you submit must be taken by you between July 11th and July 18th 2012. The Linky will close Wednesday July the 18th, so make sure you link up before then. ;)
2. You may only enter one picture per contest, if you have more than one in your post, please specify which one you are entering.
3. If at all possible, list settings used to take it. (Camera, lens, date taken, time (even if vague, early afternoon, late evening, etc), ISO, shutter speed, and aperture.) You can find most of this info in the properties of your picture if you forget what settings you used.

I've been meaning to turn this yellow desk-my school desk that someone gave us last fall-into a fair project ever since we got it. 

After doing school on it for a whole grade, the yellow isn't all that bad, in fact, I kinda don't mind it. But alas, I'd already signed up for a 'refurbished furniture', and I had a great idea. I'm going to turn this into a gray and purple desk, that is part chalkboard!

I'm really excited for this project. I painted three coats of what I thought was white primer on the other day. Then my mom kindly informed me that it was paint. Not primer. So now I get to sand it all, primer it with real primer, and then continue on with my paint job! :)

Summer Challenge: Independence Day

Happy Fourth of July! This part of our summer challenge centers around that day many years ago, in 1776 when America declared independence from Great Britain.

I am so thankful for our country, especially the freedom we have. Many countries don't have the same freedom as us, and it is hard to imagine what it would be like with out it.

So, how about sharing a picture of what you did this year to celebrate?  We watched fireworks, like we normally do, I was really excited to take pictures of them for the first time with my Canon T2i!

Before we went, I looked up some tips for firework shooting, and the best ones that stuck with me were, of course use a tripod, and shooting in BULB. Have a very high F stop, and low aperture. Many people also suggested shooting in RAW, but I didn't, and I'm still satisfied with my results.

It might seem hard to know what tripod to buy, and I still don't know what tripod I want some day. Right now I shoot my night pictures off of a really cheap tripod I found in our basement. It has a $2.99 Goodwill sticker on it.
That might seem really horrible of me to some of you reading this, but it's what I have, and it sure holds my camera a lot better than my hands! :)
I found that setting my f stop the highest it could go (38), and shooting in BULB, from 30-50 seconds gave me the best pictures.

Alright, on to the rules, and then I'll share my picture!
 Rules: 1.The picture you submit must be taken by you between July 1th and July 11th 2012. The Linky will close Wednesday July the 11th, so make sure you link up before then. ;)
2. You may only enter one picture per contest, if you have more than one in your post, please specify which one you are entering.
3. If at all possible, list settings used to take it. (Camera, lens, date taken, time (even if vague, early afternoon, late evening, etc), ISO, shutter speed, and aperture.) You can find most of this info in the properties of your picture if you forget what settings you used.

My favorite thing about this picture is the blob of color in the bottom, that was one of the coolest fireworks I've ever seen. :)

Please note, that your picture for this contest can be taken between July 1 and July 11. That's from Sunday to a Wednesday. The reason being, not everyone watches fireworks or parades, has parties, etc. ON the fourth, we watched fireworks on the third.... :)

Can't wait to see what your fourth looks like!

This summer I discovered flavored water. It is super easy to make, put some fruit in a jar and smash it a little, then fill the jar completely with ice, fill with water, cover and refrigerate 12-24 hours. Pour through a sieve before serving.

It is a healthy alternative to juice or kool-aid, and I love it! :)

Photography Challenge: Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day. The time of year when pink and red match, when people feel, and make others feel, extra loved, lots of chocolate is brought out, millions of roses and pretty bouquets of flowers are sold, couples express their love to each other, and cupids are seen everywhere, but do you really know what Valentine's Day is about?


The history of Valentine's Day isn't exactly pin-pointed like other holidays, such as Christmas, Easter, or St. Patrick's Day. Some say Valentine's Day is named after a young bishop who was stationed in the Roman Empire, Claudius II was the emperor at the time, and thought married men did not make good soldiers, so he conveniently made a law forbidding young people from marriage.Valentine heard of this, and not agreeing, began to perform marriages in seceret. Claudius found out, and had Valentine thrown in jail.


Another rumor has it that while in jail, Valentine fell in love with the jailer's daughter, and right before he was to be executed, he sent her a note signed 'from your Valentine'. The romantic note set many spreading the tale, and Valentine's Day celebrations were held, the earliest dating back to 1415.


No matter which, or if either, of these stories are true, everyone feels a need to be loved. Human love can not fill this emptiness in us, only God truly loves us unconditionally. We have been seperated from God from sin, and he provided a way for us to live in heaven eternally with him by sending his only son to die for us! You can experience this love that is like no other too, if you accept the gift God has given us and ask him to live in your heart. :) 




So, we want to know what a little bit of your Valentine's day is like. Show us a picture of something special in your day this year! It could be a tradition, a cool dessert or meal you make, or just a picture of something neat you find. My parents always decorate our dinning room table in the morning and put a little something at each of my siblings and my spots. Usually chocolate is involved! ;)

Rules:

1. The picture you submit must be taken by you between February 8, and February 22, 2012, but preferably on Valentine's Day! ;) The Linky will close Wednesday February 22, so make sure you link up before then. :)

2. You may only enter one picture per contest, if you have more than one in your post, please specify which one you are entering.

3. If at all possible, list settings used to take it. (Camera, lens, date taken, time (even if vague, early afternoon, late evening, etc), ISO, shutter speed, and aperture.) You can find most of this info in the properties of your picture if you forget what settings you used! :)

4. Editing is allowed, but if you choose to edit your picture please post the original too. Please tell us what you did to edit your picture, also! :)

5. If you don't have a blog, email one of us (our emails can be found on the 'About Us' page) and we will post it/link it up for you!

Photography Assignment: Groundhog Day

Groundhog Day is tomorrow, February 2, and Punxsutawney Phil is scheduled to come out and decide if we'll have 6 more weeks of winter, or if spring is here!

Now, I don't believe in superstitions like that, but I think it would be interesting to see what everyone's weather is like! So the challenge this week is to take a picture of your weather, do you have two feet of snow or is it sunny and 45 degrees?

Normally where I live we would have over two feet of snow right now, but this winter I don't think we've even gotten a foot total, yet!

Higlights: 25

Shadows: 30

Contrast: 5

   and then I cross processed and watermarked it. :)

I took this picture outside of Sentry on Thursday afternoon. It was an amazing day, really cool clouds with random bursts of sunlight that lit everything up so well! 

Canon T2i with 18-55mm kit lens.

f-stop 5.6

exposure 1/100

ISO-1600

focal length 55mm

I took it (and most all my pictures) in auto-focus, but I'm slowly working in manual focusing! :)
