Project: Create 2014 4/26

Project: Create 2014

We're back this year with a new project designed to help us build more creativity into our photography.
Every other Monday we'll post our images, many of them taken with our Lensbaby lenses.
The effects of the Lensbaby can be somewhat subtle or quite dramatic.
At the bottom of my post, as well as in the post of the other photographers, is a link to next photographers images. Click those links to take a trip around our circle!

This week's images brought to you with K and M!

A need for a babysitter and a need for some subjects
proved beneficial for all involved!
Yes, I'll watch the girls, if you bring them with their winter boots!

Lots of inspiration from this week's shot came from Denean Melcher photography and Denean's images over the last couple of weeks.

The images from this week's post come from my last visit to Longwood Gardens.  I went on the final day of their Christmas display, which ended on the 12th of January.

Here are few of the images I took with my Lensbaby.  You can compare them to the images I look with my regular lenses in my previous post if you are interested in seeing how the lenses differ.

A belated Longwood Christmas!

Snow canceled my plans to visit Longwood before Christmas,
not once, but twice! 
Then rain dampened my plans, because I didn't want to walk around outside, 
in cold dreary weather.
Finally, on the last day of the display, I made it out there.

Thinking it would be crowded, we went early. 
But no crowds were to be found!

The theme this year was fruit.  
We found fruit everywhere.  
On trees.
On mantles
Outside feeding the wildlife.










 The Bird of Paradise in bloom!



Outside decorating the wildlife tree!




Inside.  At night.




Peeking through a  window!
 


Sometimes you need to look up!
 

Lights.  Lights. And more lights!
 


Fountain lights!
 



Floating trees with lights!

Snowflakes. Take 1



For the second time this winter the weather forecasters have predicted storms that wouldn't amount to much, but turned into a major snow event.
It's only January and I think we've had more days off from school that in the last 3 years combined.
So, what's a photographer to do on a day off?
 If you need to answer, look below.
If you already knew the answer, you know what you're looking for!
