Project 52 - Week 24 - Coffee

It seems like that I only get these Project 52 theme pictures done anymore.

Hopefully I will get other pictures done

Once the flowers are out more I will have lots to take...

This week's theme is

Project 52 - Week 24 ~ Coffee

I don't drink coffee very much anymore but this week I decided to try some cold brewed coffee. I think I like it better then hot coffee ~ maybe because I do put sweetener in my cold brew coffee. I made some Mocha Caramel Iced Coffee and it was so good... If you want the recipe, you can get it HERE.

Project 52 - Week 22 - Natural

I am a few days behind in posting last week's Project 52.

The theme was

Project 52 ~ Natural

I decided that for this theme I would pick the sunrise. Last week I was up early which is kind of unusual for me as I am a night shift worker. But since my hubby left for downstate to work, my sleeping habits have been kind of screwed up. Anyways one day last week I was at 4 am and was able to view the sunrise. I loved how the sun was shining through the trees in front of the house. So out I was in my pyjamas taking pictures... Not sure what the neighbors would think if they saw me.. and hubby would be horrified if he knew what I had done... But here are the pictures I took with no editing what so ever... Just Natural.

Project 52 ~ Week 21~ Play

I am not sure where the days go but they seem to be gone before I know it.

This week for Project 52 our theme is

Project 52 ~ Play

When I first joined this group and thought about doing pictures each week I had planned on doing pictures that I had just taken or at least taken close to the time that I needed to post it. When Play was brought up for a theme I thought perfect... a couple of weeks ago I had taken pictures of a couple of bunnies in the back yard, playing. So I went to look at those pictures as they were still on my computer. I never got the bunnies together so they didn't really portray play. I had to dig back in my archives and I remembered taking pictures of my nieces playing in the park in the spring. I also had used a new app at that time to scrapbook the pictures.

So here is my interpretation of play:

Project 52 - Week 20 - Vintage

I don't seem to get any other pictures on this blog except the Project 52.

Hopefully I will get more taken now that spring has finally come here to the U.P.

Project 52 - Vintage

A couple of months ago, I went and took some pictures of a friend's newborn little girl. I had lots of fun doing it. Although the baby isn't vintage. I used an old suitcase and some pearls in the picture and when I edited the picture I did it in sepia so that it would look vintage.

Project 52 -Week 19 ~ Framed

Hope everyone has had a super week and your weekend is going great.

Cold and trying to snow here...

We woke up with a dusting of snow this morning and it has been snowing on and off all day.

The only good thing about snow at this time of year

is that it only stays on the ground for a few minutes.

This week's Project 52 theme is

Framed

I had many ideas of what I could do but as the weather isn't cooperating and it was too cold to go outside,

I decided to go through my pictures and I came up with this one.

This picture was taken last fall, on Brockway Mountain. Although I didn't get the complete circle, I love how the sun's ray was framing what I was taking. This picture was taken with my point and shoot camera.

Take a look at all the other interpretation of Framed

Project 52 Week 18 - Leaves

This week's theme for

Project 52 is Leaves

Now I could have gone out and taken pictures of leaves, that is if we had any kind of leaves on the trees. As winter still is hanging out here in the U.P., leaves are far and few between. As I was thinking of this theme, this saying kept coming to my mind.....

Turning a New Leaf

So keeping that in mind, here is my interpretation of this week's theme....

Take a look at all the other interpretation of Film..

Project 52 Week 17 - Film

Project 52 - Film

This week's theme, yes I said this week's - I am finally on time again is film or film-like. I wonder if the children growing up even know what film for a camera is. Can you even buy a camera that uses film anymore and how easy is it to get your film developed.

Since the coming of digital cameras, it is harder and harder to buy film cameras and probably just as hard to get them developed. The days where you shoot rolls and rolls of film to make sure you get that one great picture are long gone. Now you can just delete the pictures that you don't like as you are taking them. Also the days of taking your film in, waiting at least a couple of days, if not a week depending on where you went is a thing of the past. Do you even develop you pictures anymore? I so very seldom do. I now share them through multi media.

When thinking of this theme I remembered my SLR camera and also my video camera, both take film. I had thought that I had a roll of film lying around the house, but I must have gotten rid of it.

Here is my interpretation of film:

It does make me sad to think that these days are over, but like everything technology advances.

What do you think will be the next thing we will see in photography?

Project 52 - Old - Week 16

These week's theme is:

Project 52 ~ OLD

The first thing that I thought of when I heard of this week's theme was ME! I thought of when I was getting married and the theme something new, something old, something blue. When I got to the something old I thought that is easy ~ it's me. But I didn't think you would like another picture of me :)...

So this is what I decided to go with....

The doily that the plates are on was made by my great grandmother. My great aunt gave it to me as a wedding present as she knew that I would cherish something this precious. I never knew my great grandmother but I remember my mom telling me stories about her. This doily has a special place on my piano.

The dishes were given by a dear neighbor that lived kitty-corner to us as we were growing up. She was "grandma" Jones to us even though she had many grandchildren of her own. She gave me these plate or TV trays as she called them to me when I graduated from high school. She told me that she had bought them when her eldest daughter was out of school which must be at least 50 years ago. Grandma Jones passed away a few years after I graduated but I have these dishes to remember her by.

Project 52- Colourful Week 15

I am still a week behind but hopefully this week I will catch up.

Last week's theme was

Project 52 - Colourful

When I first heard the theme for last week's project 52 my mind went to Africa. Colourful is the best way to describe their material and clothes. I love all the colours that they use.

Bright, Bold and Beautiful.

They aren't afraid to wear colour.

different material that I have

One more picture. As you can tell this picture wasn't taken by me but by a friend of my husband's friend with my camera. The dress I am wearing was made by the material that my mother and father in law gave me as a wedding gift.

Head over to these other blogs to see what their interpretation of colourful is:

Project 52 - Sun - week 14

I am so far behind on this project.

I was doing ok and only about a day or two behind but now I am over a week.

So will be doing two weeks, back to back or very close together.

Week 14 was...

Project 52 - Sun

I am wondering if I am more behind as the sun hasn't been out these last few weeks. We get a glimpse here and there but not enough to say that it is out. I had to dig into my archives for this picture. I took this picture at Easter time.
