One Little Word Captured Reminder and Thursday Challenges

I'm home after 5 wonderful days of spending the holidays with family at Seabrook Island, South Carolina.

First, a REMINDER. 

Week one of One Little Word | Captured photography challenge will begin this Saturday, January 1. Friday night I will post my photo (and maybe a few words) along with Mr. Linky to begin sharing, supporting and encouraging 52 weeks of documented efforts, attempts, successes, and maybe even the struggles of our journey.

Celebrating Alec's win of the National Geographic's geography bee.

Sat patiently watching. While visiting family in South Carolina for the holidays I took advantage of not being in Ohio with the cold and snow. For this photo I used Pioneer Woman's Boost action with layers adjusted, cropped and slight sharpen.

Ready for mimosas. A Christmas morning tradition.

That mimosa shot is amazing! Gorgeous! I'm looking forward to joining in. Oh, and I love your new blog header!

I agree that that mimosa shot is incredible. I need to add your new button to my page - I had the old one as a placeholder.

Great edit and such a cute little bird!

[Mel]

The cropping and editing really brings out the bokeh, it's gorgeous :-)

I haven't forgotten about your challenge, but I seem to be chasing my tail rather so far this January so I need to catch up with myself first! xx
