Cafe Bebe’s Not So Still Life
I’m suddenly feeling all photographer-like. I blame Tara Cain’s “The Gallery” which sets us a new task every week to test our photo taking ability. I’m the one in our family who takes the pictures but until this week, I never looked at OTHER things to see their value. I take pictures of my daughter mostly. She’s the lovely one I want to capture. Oh, and of course my hubby. Generally they are together. My two favourite subjects. But this week’s theme is: STILL LIFE. Hmmm…it got me thinking…really thinking.
So, yesterday, in the garden, I found a few items which I thought were worthy of a photograph. Thanks to Picnik, I think they may have turned out better than the originals…I give you Cafe Bebe’s Not-So-Still Life.
We have a little pink & white windmill installed in our strawberry plant pot. There was NO wind yesterday but I loved the colours. After messing around a bit more, this is what I came up with.
This was what was left behind in Little Miss’ sandbox…her footprint.
Little Miss adores ice cream. A sunny day, a 99 and a bib were all we needed!
Little Miss’ “Crocs” with a wee bit of sand. Such active shoes most of the time. Here they are…still.
Thank you Tara…you may have brought out the photographer in me. Now, maybe I need a funky new camera to go with it?
