Week #18 - My Favorite Things

I think this week's photo challenge will be a fun one!

The challenge this week is: My Favorite Things

Sounds like fun doesn't it?

Night in our house

This week I find myself challenged, not only by obvious physical obstacles, but also by the fact that Tanya has borrowed my Canon for a upcoming photoshoot, so I am using Floyd's PowerShot "point-and-shoot". However, I was impressed by it's performance and was pleased to find that it had a manual setting that enabled me to experiment. Plus it is still a Canon ;)

This first one is my bedside table with my clock, water bottle, and pile of books:


The next photo shows where our dear old puppy sleeps at night. Now that Floyd is temporarily in the spare bedroom (until I get a bit better), she lays right across the doorway (so that she can know if either one of us gets up, I guess). I feel so bad, however, when I have to get up in the middle of the night because she doesn't hear me, so I have to tap her with the walker...


I was thrilled with the way this next photo came out! I was trying to take a picture of the streetlight shining through the tree branches and was so surprised, when I downloaded the photo, that the camera had, instead, focused on the window screen! But I love the result! It can be frustrating when the camera decides itself what to focus on but here is an example where it can make for a pleasing photo:

Friday night

Today I worked from 2 - 10pm. Seeing as I hadn't taken my night pictures - I figured, I might as well take some tonight :)

My time sheet for the shift

The clock in the hallway

The exit at work....time to go home

Here is my car, all alone in the parking lot

I took this picture while driving...I know I shouldn't have...but..I needed a night picture!!!

I'm still alive...and here are my eggs!!

Josiah getting ready to colour some "eggies"

He did a pretty good job:)

Posing with his "eggie" lol, this made me laugh.

My first time decorating Easter eggs alone....they may not have been the prettiest, but my little boy and I had a good time making them :)

Happy Easter :)

Week #17: Night

Well Mum, I am hoping you will still be able to join me this week!

The photo challenge this week is the word: Night

This one will be a little tricky I think, but still fun! Look forward to taking pictures and for seeing your pictures.

Hershey Eggies

These are my weakness when it comes to Easter time!! I made the mistake and found out at my work, I can buy them in bulk!!! A lot cheaper and so yummy!!

Eggciting!

Sorry to post so fast, KB, but (a) I was baking when I saw the challenge, and (b) I might not get around to it tomorrow or the rest of the week....
