A Few Screws Loose – Project 52 Week 3

Jan 17th, 2010 Posted in Photography, Project52, Projects | 2 comments »

I felt like getting away from the cutesy stuff I like to photograph (when I’m not taking pictures for my recipe blog, that is).  I also wanted an excuse to play with my macro lens.  My husband is currently doing the spare room over to make it into a nursery.  Last night he removed all the hardware from the built-in cabinets and spent a couple of hours cleaning off old paint and shellac.  Now it all looks new again.  I really wanted to grab some pictures of the hinges while they were still loose, but he was too quick for me.  I settled for snapping a few shots of the screws.  And just because screws are such a compelling subject (note sarcasm), I decided to get creative and desaturate the final image.  Black and white hardware…does it get any better?  :)

White On White On White – Project 52 Week 2

This is my cat, Seiya.  She loves nothing more than to lounge around in bed all day.  Unless, of course, she’s sitting by the radiator.  Otherwise the appeal of a fluffy down comforter is too much for her to resist.  At least it doesn’t show her fur!  In fact, she blends in so well I don’t always realize she’s there.   Luckily those beautiful, bi-colored eyes of hers made her presence quite obvious on this day.

We went for our 3D/4D ultrasound yesterday.  If you follow me on Facebook, you already know that.  Since not all my friends and family are one Facebook, however, I thought I’d put the video up here as well.  Everyone, meet Angelina!

Even though I knew what to expect going in, I was still in awe the entire time watching our little girl on the screen.

There are also still images from the session in the Photo Gallery, which can be accessed from the menu on the right.

Don’t mind me.  I’m just excited because I’m down to double digits now.  Angelina is due in a mere 99 days!

Bird in a Tree – Project 52 Week 1

Okay, I’m cheating a little bit with this first one. (What, only the first week and she’s cheating already??) I actually took this photo back in October, but I haven’t had a chance to showcase it yet. I think it’s kind of cute. It’s also one of the photos I took that inspired me to start this project in the first place, so I think it makes an appropriate first picture. I promise the next one will actually be taken some time this week.  :)
