Fourth week of January 2015, first few days

Well last week was a busy week as I was back at work, I'm also still trying to earn more money online with a long term goal of going selfemployed.

I'm pleased to say I'm continuing with my bucket list / dream board challenge of taking a photo a day, and I'm now enjoying looking back at the ones I've already taken this year.




Last Sunday I went back to work on an early shift starting at 6.30 in the morning, it was a bit of a shock to the system and I was tired. That and my interest in taking better macro photos lead me to take this photo of my husband's palm and to make it my photo of the day.


In the early hours of monday morning we got a brief flurry of snow, we've not really had much all winter. This was actually the most we'd had for two winters. Anyway it was a photo opportunity I couldn't miss, especially when my husband made this artwork for me.



My dad has some small cards which give you hints and tips about taking different photos. We were looking at them one day and chose a couple each. One of mine was to take a back lit leaf so that you can see all the veins. This is an evergreen leaf so it's quite thick, but I was still pleased with how it came out.


On wednesday I again tried another leaf, I love the colours of this one. I was a bit disappointed with the overall effect though. Although people who have seen it seem to love it.


On thursday I went back to the lakeside with my dad. This time he fed the swans, but I didn't get many good photos as I was too busy slipping over in the mud, it was great fun though.
