I've found another photo challenge to play with. This one comes from
The Round Robin Photo Challenge and the theme for today is
looking up. The idea is to point the camera towards the sky and get a different view of things. In my mind this is different from Skywatch because you're not necessarily capturing the sky, but rather the things that you see when you look skyward.
In my case, because I'm totally garden-focused at this time, the things I see are plants.
This photo is the grape leaves that are twining around the arbour by the back deck.
And this one is what I think of as a "faerie's view of the sky," taken by actually lying down among the irises and roses and pointing the camera up.
Hi Joanna :)
ReplyDeleteMy name is Carly. Welcome to the Round Robin Challenges! I love your name, I remember an actress from a while back with the same name.
Wonderful photos! I am in the process of planning my garden for this autumn, so I am seeing plants and flowers everywhere. :) Wonderful process you have for capturing a "faerie's view" you have fun with your camera

I hope you don't let those grape leaves go to waste. Pick them and make some stuffed grape leaves. Yum.
ReplyDeleteHi Joanna! These shots are very nice. I really like them!
ReplyDeleteAnd what beautiful flowers you are watching! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteGreat visual...you lying among the irises, camera in hand. I love grape leaves' shape. And, of course, Rudee is right: they're very tasty stuffed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments everyone, and for visiting. Good idea to stuff and eat them Rudee and Stephanie. I hadn't thought of that.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your first Round Robin challenge. I love the fairy's eye view. Of course, had I gotten down like that, I'd still be there, I'm afraid. Not so good at getting up and down these days! Nice photos. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking up shots! Very clever to lie down among the roses and the irises for that picture. Welcome to the Robins!
