My Favorites in Photography 101

Finally…together we have come to the end of photography 101. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I hope you did too viewing my world and interpretations of each theme through my eyes and phone. I have so many other pixs I really love but I’m limited to 10… but if you do have a favorite that is not here, do let me know.

Photography 101 – Triumph

Like one uncelebrated, I stand in all my glory

…yet unseen

The dark does me no justice or tell my story

This foreseen

Come, Lights…shine on me in victory

Cast your brilliance, I bid thee

No more will I be ignored as I glow for all to see!

Before the lights shone on me

Lights arising…

Changed story…

In all my glory!

Thankful Thursday

Grace…Amazing Grace

Photography 101 – Edge

Pheww…I’m at the edge of my seat as I crack my head thinking up how to achieve this and then it hits me. So I take a couple of staircase pix…thankfully I didn’t get dizzy LOL. I hope I got the interpretation. What do you think?

EDGE – Spiral Step

A Normal Step

Tried catching all the edges

Round and round, just don’t get dizzy

More Edges…of the rail and the staircase

Photography 101 – Double

This sounds juicy and like my son would say “gorgeous”.

I’ve thought of many ‘crazy’ ideas, but just so I remain within the limits of sanity…but truly there should be no limits when it comes to photography, writing and dreaming…I came up with these! One just needs to explore the vast universe around them. I tried to capture some doubles. I hope you like them.

Two of a Kind

One of my Val gifts…our connection

The patterns on the rug

Lights and more reflections

Photography 101 – Treasure

My treasures are many.

So asking me to picture one would be an injustice to others. I love my King and children (whom I call Heritage). They are really precious to me. My Bible is a source of refreshment, rejuvenation and direction (amongst others) to me. An empty journal or a filled one like the one shown here is one of the many things I treasure because I love writing! I love family and LOVE! I’m nuts about beads…as you can see. I couldn’t capture all these as one, so you will have to endure …oops I mean …enjoy all the many pictures I have here 🙂

TREASURE – The Bible

Photography 101 – Glass

I’m thinking how to interpret this theme and I remember the beautiful coloured glass in The Rock Cathedral I had snapped and the Glass roof. I’m excited just thinking about them.

The Prayer Chapel

Looks like I caught the sea, ‘fishes’ and trapped the Sun here.

the Sun and the Clouds behind the scenes

GLASS – The beauty was so much it reflected on the ceiling

Photography 101 Moments

My moments were fleeting and I needed to capture these happy children as they were caught up in their own private activity while the adults were praying in the background oblivious of this moment that may never be seem in time again. I did try a couple of times before I got this two. What do you think?

Ringa-Ringa Roses

Catch me if you can!

Where does this ring begin?

Be still Daddy and don’t move the landmark

Follow the Leader

I’m following the Leader… she must know the way

I might not get it right now, but eventually I will get the steps

So here we go, left, right, left, right

Photography 101 – Swarm

At our Prayers and Communion meeting before The Experience 2014, I tried to get as many Swarm pictures of different group as I could. I hope I captured the true essence of swarming.

…of Canopies, Seats & Cars

…Of lifted hands

…of Colours

…of Agreement and Unity

SWARM…of Colours, People & Activity

…of Authority & Power

Photography 101 – Architecture

There are several places that come to mind when I think of Architectural Beauty, but the capturing them the way I would love you to see them proved to be a bit of challenge. I really wish I could give you an aerial view, but since I can’t (for now at least), I hope you enjoy these.
