Capture - Desserts

Once again I was late getting this up, I believe. I'm getting quite good at that. In fact, so good that I was thinking it might be easier to move the challenge from every week to every two weeks. What do you think?

Anyhoo, onto the pictures!

The Next Theme

Desserts! Those yummy, gooey, delicious wonders that we all adore! Since desserts are so wonderful, let's link up!

Capture - Vintage

We had three submissions in this last category, and I'm sorry about how late I am in getting it up! I thought that I had said it was to be open until the middle of June, but it was actually to the 10th. Oops! Anyway, here are the great submissions for Musical Instruments!

Great job girls! You did a fabulous job, and I love seeing every single one of your pictures!

Since I've been on a vintage kick lately, I thought that it would provide the perfect theme for this week's challenge! Vintage it is. Don't forget, that sometimes adding a texture, or gradient to your picture will give it just the right feel.

I can't wait to see your submissions, so link up!

Capture - Musical Instruments

Yay, we had two submissions this last week, and they were great ones! Here's a look:

My blue picture! ;)

Join me for the next theme which will be musical instruments! Perhaps you don't play one yourself, or don't anything but a kazoo, but that counts too!

Thank you so much for the great submissions! Due to life in general, I'll have this theme open until June 10th, so it will give you plenty of time to enter your links!

Capture - Knick-Knacks

Wow, thank you to the people who participated in last week's challenge! Since there were just a couple, I thought I would link to Emily Grace Photography (1st participant), and show you the entry of V.J. (2nd participant!).

I just <3 bee-hives, don't you? Thanks V.J.! :)

Thank you for participating, you guys!

This week, share a picture of your favorite knick-knack. I'm sure you all have one! Mine is a tiny glass goat with green horns. I'll show it to you next week, so be sure to come back!

Capture - Nature

This week's theme is photograph something that is natural or native to your area. This can be plants, animals, people (if you have their permission!), landmarks, or anything, but it has to be a fair representative of your region. If your picture needs to be explained a little, all the better!

It's a pretty broad first category, but it should prove fun and interesting.

Here's mine.

Taken with a Canon Powershot SX 10 IS, and curves slightly edited.

I took the obvious approach and decided to go with a plant as my representation of my area. This is a native moss growing on the branch of a dead Sage Brush. This is very typical in our area, of moss growing on...just about anything! Despite that fact, we live in a very dry area.

Now, go capture and be happy!

Capture - A Weekly Phototgraphy Challenge

Alright, I know that I'm no Ansel Adams, but I do enjoy photography, and I would definitely love it if I could learn more, be inspired more, and be challenged more, to grow in this hobby.

What better way than to start a photography challenge? Granted, there are a million and one photography challenges out there in World Wide Web, but this is my photography challenge, and I'm excited to share it with you.

It's pretty simple, really. Once a week, I will supply a theme, and anyone who participates takes a picture based on their interpretation of that theme, and posts it on their blog, Facebook, or whatever. Then you come back to the current Capture post and link up!

For those who would like to let the world know what you are doing, you can use both the banner above, and the button below on your blog.

The first post will be coming soon, and I can't wait to see who participates!
