I found my subject by staring off into space trying to think of a photo and realizing it was literally just sitting (floating) there.

| Kate: Balanced Birdie |
This plastic birdie is perfectly balanced on the edge of the computer desk. I don't remember where this came from. I'm pretty sure My Guy and Grad Girl bought this on one of our trips because they didn't think it would work. So this bird has been on the corner of the desk for several years. It's become such a part of the office that you really just don't notice it.
My Guy had taken some photos this week, but wasn't really happy with any of them. We were out shopping all day yesterday, so when we got home he was determined to get a better shot.

| My Guy: Duplex of Cards |
How he comes up with these unique ideas is always amazing to me. We didn't get home till after 9 PM and were already tired. He pulled this shot together in a few minutes.
My favorite photo this week's is Grad Girl's.

| Grad Girl: D&D Balance |
Normally she takes a photo in the lab, but I'm pretty sure when I texted her to remind her to get a photo she was already home. But she improvised. You do wonder how she got all those odd shaped Dungeons and Dragons dice to balance on each other.
So even with last minute photos, it wasn't a bad week. My Guy drew this week's challenge card. He said he was going to pull a good one for this week.
He did! We really do a random draw each week. The cards are shuffled and then we fan them out and one of us picks. How he managed to pull this one the week before Christmas is really amazing. I don't think we'll have any problems coming up with photos for next week!
Hmmm, the holiday card IS a coincidence! I had forgotten all about those balancing birds - how fun. I am again amazed at all of your different and clever takes on the prompts.
ReplyDeletehow was it that you all started to take a "theme" photo each week?
ReplyDeleteDoes the bird really just perch there on the edge of the desk? Fascinating! Always fun to see what you each come up with. Have a fun Holiday week!
ReplyDeleteVery fun images of Balance. The bird is quite intriguing! Holiday - hmmmmm - what aspect of a holiday will each of you think about?
ReplyDeleteYou all had great photos this week! Interesting how you all interpret the idea differently.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the three different versions of the theme each week. The photos for "balance" were especially good and varied. Pulling the card for Holiday was just meant to be.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, Kate. As soon as I saw the bird, I was wondering how it was staying put. I can not wait to see your Holiday photos. I was thinking about you today and your photo challenges when I was watching a sweet lady on Youtube talking about journaling prompts. Have a lovely day. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun pictures this week - your husband's creativity is impressive!
