Week 17/52 : Pattern

I always come up with an idea for a theme at the start of the week, but once I've set that theme I no longer think my idea really fits with it. And when I set the theme 'Pattern' I most definitely wasn't planning on photographing myself in my dress, no matter how pretty it is. I was thinking of natural patterns in the landscape/everyday surroundings...I'll need to come up with a more distinct theme title for that another time. But for now just enjoy my pretty dress.

I thought it was hideous the first time I saw it, but now I'm in love. Good story, huh?

The theme for week 18 is Guess What...no, no need to guess, that's what the theme is...'Guess What'...ho ho ho. So basically random arty abstract photos of whatever you can find :) Have a good week! (I can't believe it's May tomorrow...I Actually can't believe it. I'll be 23 in a month and a half...but Rachael will be 23 in half a month ;) She loves it when I bring that up :D I'm excited!)

Week 16/52 : Spring

I love Spring time! The nights are getting longer, and the world's just a happier place...when it's not snowing...The trees and flowers are blossoming, and filling the world with colour again...when it's not snowing...And you can get excited that summer's coming next...even though it'll probably actually just snow...

But, despite the crazy weather we've been having, I managed to get a few pretty photos. Don't you LOVE the trees on that wall?! I want to have a wall like that one day. Yum.

Next week's theme is patterns :)

Week 15/52 : Laughter

I absolutely loved this week's theme :) Capturing someones laugh in all it's glory is wonderful! I was staying with my cousins this weekend while their parents were away, and we were out for a wee photo shoot at some ruins on Saturday afternoon (a few photos from that too come later), and at the end they kindly let me take photos as we made each other chuckle. I got Coinneach to take photos of me, even though my laugh makes me look like Miss Piggy...I didn't even pick the worst won. Haha.

Week 16's theme is Spring...it may have sprung a couple weeks ago...but for me it's not official until my tree blossoms :)

Caitlin & Angus | Sneak Peak

It wasn't just fun adventures and no work last week, I did some work too...it just so happens that my work is super fun!! I met up with Caitlin & Angus at the beach in Vatisker with their Mum on Thursday morning and we had some fun on the sand, running through water, and looking for rocks. I loved being able to pick up my camera and be at the beach for a photo shoot in just 2 minutes!

Here are a few Sneak Peaks, hope you like them...

Week 14/52 : Adventure

Cassia and I had an absolutely wonderful week in Lewis! Can't believe that this time last Monday we were cosied up in my Granny's old house, watching the A-Team, after successfully sneaking on to the evening ferry. I pretty much showed Cassia every part of the Island, including a visit to Harris, the only place we didn't venture in to the heart of was Lochs...sorry!

I'm so thankful we managed to wiggle JD on to the ferry, despite not having booked him on, as without him the adventure would've been far more limited. He's been to the Island 3 times now...may have punctured his front left shoe on his first visit to Uig, but he's adjusted to the treacherous conditions now and loves a bit of bumpy road action. We had to get him in on one of our photos during the week :)

The photo of Cassia on the bottom right is probably my favourite...she's experiencing the cold blast from the waves at the Port of Ness, on a calm day. Haha. Well, that was actually the day it snowed/rained/blew/sunshined/snowed/sunshined/blew...it was a laugh! That was also the day we climbed rocks...some of us higher than others...but photographic evidence of that will come later, on Facebook.

The theme for week 15 is Laughter, so get your old joke books out and bring on the snorting :)

Week 13/52 : White/Negative Space

I've had the lovely Katherine staying with me since Thursday night, and so far we've have two beautiful days of sunshine! Yesterday afternoon was spent at the seaside, then we went out for dinner (introducing Katherine to Wagamama's for the first time. Ooooh yeaaaah), and then went to see Dirty Dancing...let's just say it's a good thing I have good eyesight, as we were sitting on the very very very very last row possible to sit on, riiiight at the top of the theatre. Haha. We laughed past it though, and thoroughly enjoyed the show! Then today we went for a 3 hour walk out around Loch Muick, and although the temperature dropped quite a bit today, the sun still shone and our walking pace kept us warm. It was such a beautiful walk! God's creation is magnificent.

After a wee trip to Tesco for some flowers, and a quick run up a hill in a field for the image on the right, above, we then went to get Chinese takeaway and are currently slouched on the sofa with our pj bottoms on, watching Avatar, enjoying relaxing! It has been such a great couple days, but the visit aint over yet :)

Now, since I'm taking Cassia up to Lewis on Monday, for her first time ever, I'm thinking next weeks theme should be 'Adventure'. It should be pretty easy to snap some photos of that throughout the week!

I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend :)

Week 12/52 : Blue

 Fin had a sleepover at Granny Stewart and Auntie Trina's house on Friday night, and in the morning we were out in the back garden enjoying the misty morning chill (waaaay before the sun broke through). Fin had his cool blue wellies on for his adventures of ball kicking, step chillin' with his Aunt, fresh cut grass flinging, high pitched laughing, running and wheel spinning. He loves being outside! He's not reached the stage of mud pies yet...not that I've witnessed anyway, but no doubt he'll get there in time.

The theme for Week 13 iiiis...'White Space' (or Negative Space), which is basically a photograph that is about 90% nothingness, like the tips of trees and then just beautiful empty sky :) Please please please feel free to join in at ant point. I really do love seeing other peoples photos!
