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.

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.
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! :)

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!

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. ;)

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 week's assignment is Street Signs.
Try to find an interesting sign, one with a funny saying, or a different perspective.
And because rules are always good, here are a couple guidelines:
1. The picture you submit must be taken by you between September 28 and October 12, 2011. The Linky will close Wednesday Oct. 11, 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!
Here is my entry for this assignment.
Every week we will be doing a weekly assignment where you can enter your own pictures and link up! At the end of each assignment, the picture with the most votes will be the winner, so make sure to vote! :)

Original
I don't know, do you think it would look better in black and white?
I cropped it, changed the exposures around
Exposure: -50
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! :)
Don't forget to link up your photo, and vote for your favorite!
