Creative photography. Learning. Prompts. Challenges. Inspiration. A new photography class at Shimelle dot com.
CHALLENGE ONEShare a photo you have already taken that makes you smile.
A favorite photo or a recent photo or a photo you were proud to have taken or a photo that is fabulous because it captured a great moment or a photo that makes you think twice and look at just a little bit longer.
This is one of those random unexpected shots that stood out among 100s of photos taken that day. This is one of those photos that embraces imperfections. This is a photo that makes me smile because it captures a shot of my son who is growing up to be this amazing young man. This is a photo that reflects so much of who Alec is at this time in his life.
CHALLENGE TWO
It's a spontaneous picture.
Grab your camera now and take a picture of something in the next five minutes.
This photo could have been taken almost any morning in my house. This is my early morning 7 days/week.
For today, exploring and playing with prompts one and two.
Love the photo of your son.....the silhouette feel to it is great. I'm sure you're going to love Shimelle's class.

Thanks for dropping by my blog & taking time to leave a comment too!
I love your 'makes me smile' photo...mine, coincidentally, involved my son Alex (close!) & the sea...great minds & all that!
See you in the forum :)

Jill, that really is a great shot of your son :-) I can't wait to get home so I can upload my 'zillions' of flower shots!

Are there two different classes? I'm taking the Love Your Photos - Love your Pages class and didn't get those prompts. Are you taking one of her classes that focuses just on photos?

Hi Laura
Same class. The first 2 were challenges that Shimelle started with before the prompts started. I dont think an email was sent but you can find them in the forums. Cant wait to see your photos and pages :)
