Picture Color…

picture color

Although I haven’t posted much here during the month of June I was busy taking photos.  Through the blog Mortal Muses I won a membership in the Picture Color workshop which involved daily prompts and nightly comments.  I find these workshops both rewarding and overwhelming at the same time…  I am a bit obsessive about getting every prompt done and commenting on other photos which isn’t always possible.  All in all, however, I am sure that I take away more than I put into the class.  There is so much inspiration and support among the participants that when the month is over I find that I missed the daily stress…

The collage above was made using Picasa of most of my photos from the workshop.

This is a wonderful collection of photo's and memories of the month of June...prompts are a great way to document life. Even with all the stress!

I think I would be obsessive too. I like the egg picture and the ones with colorful food. Nice job.

I love this day-in-a-life approach... a wonderful mosaic of the extraordinary-ordinary. :o)

Oh, how fantastic! It sounds like it was a great workshop, and the results were some gorgeous photos! I always love shots that document the everyday and the ordinary as well as the obviously beautiful. Yours do just that, and they make the viewer see these things with fresh eyes. To me, that's what it's all about.

xoxo Gigi
