Zoo Day!

Had a wonderful Zoo Day with a friend and our daughter's... here are some of my favorite shots from the day :)

Challenge #42

Submit 1-3 images at the end of this week of creative images of the sky.

These can be edited/tweaked,cropped in any way.

The Journey from Lincoln, Nebraska to Waco Nebraska after an

afternoon of Black Friday shopping.

I took over 100 photos, these were all taken while I was in the passenger seat of the car in a span of 35 mins, only 40 turned out and these are some of my favorites. It was hard to narrow down to even 5 photos, could have easily put up 15 of my favorites if not more. Hope you enjoyed, I loved this challenge, Thanks Nebraska for such wonderful photos!

Photo Challenge #41

The Challenge: The Rule of Thirds
Submit three photographs of the same subject demonstrating the rule of thirds. You can either take three photos, cropping your image differently, or take one picture and crop it three different ways.

Found this very challenging, had tried this with three different subjects (cat, flowers, and lama) and the lama ones turned out the best. Did you know that lamas are fascinated with dachshunds, my sister-in-law took us out to visit the lama farm while out in Nebraska and she brought one of her little dachshunds along and those lamas would follow where ever that little dog ran (which made it hard to get still photos, I tried to talk to them but lamas do not listen very well with a dachshund running around).

Challenge #40

The Challenge: "Old Fashioned"
The Rules:
1. You are free to submit as many or as few photos as you'd like.
2. Pictures can be in b/w or colour

Struggled with this challenge more because I had no idea what to do for the "old fashioned" part, so in the end I made some yummy old fashion hot chocolate with marshmallows. Enjoy!
