Blue! I am not done yet!

My Favorite Triathlete helped me out on this one.

Week 8: Hands!

I think hands are just amazing. Strong. Gentle. Trained. Active. Powerful. Callous. Personal. Tender. The list goes on. Please spend some time thinking about your hands and what you use them for, even if you don't end up photographing them. Feel free to photograph any set of hands that you can get your hands on. Consider a message or an emotion. Contemplate an object that might be held.

Happy Snapping!

An act of desperation...

Yes. I know. I said 6 colors, 6 pictures. I'm going to have to play my "I have 3 kids" card and pray that it gets me off the hook. You see, my original plan was to head off to the mall and play in the shoe department. Total Bliss! Then, I realized my life is not going to allow such bliss. So, I decided to pull out my super colorful wardrobe, complete with hats and ties, and lock myself in my room and do 6 very silly self portraits. What fun! But no.

After feeding, cleaning, changing, bathing and clothing my three little ones...ALL DAY...
THIS IS THE EXTENT OF MY CREATIVITY!

I need an intervention. Please. Someone. Help me.

Purple & Orange

Another old photo (cheating I know) ... but I could not resist, it is one of my favorite shots.

Orange!

PINK!

My new favorite pair of shoes... Green!

so COOL & and super CUTE.. I know not quite primary green, but I just love them!

Blue, Red & a touch of Yellow

But my true favorite was the one I got in black&white

Red

Enjoyed the shadows on this one!

If you look close you even get a self portrait of me!

It was hard to choose just one...

Five out of Six

I did procrastinate quite a bit on this one so yesterday afternoon turned into little color scavenger hunt around the house. So here they are:

Red:

(I tried to get Jason-my husband- to be my foot model for this one, but for some reason he was totally against it..ha)

Purple:

They are called a red onion right?? But they look more purple to me

Green:

Caught this one while I was attempting the color Red

Blue:

I know I use him a lot, but he's always around! All I did was brighten up this photo, I'm really not sure why his eyes ended up looking quite this blue. I love it though.

And yellow:

This guy was just waiting for me to take a picture of him last Friday.

And the color I didn't get was orange, but I feel pretty good about getting five of them! I'm still going to try and finish so maybe you'll see orange from me sometime soon.
