In June, I took my sister Kati's Photo-a-Day Challenge and posted my results about once a week. This is my last installment of photos, captured during an weekend of family togetherness and tradition (which included a trip to Walmart and a thrift shop, among other places).
--------------------------------------------------------
I chose to complete the photo challenge with no words (aside from the daily prompt word), but I'm making no restrictions on these outtakes.
I took this photo for Favorite Color (Day 2), but I couldn't get the lighting the way I wanted it. We use these Ball jars for drinking glasses. They were a Christmas gift from my hubby and they make me happy.
I took this photo to use for Childhood (Day 8), but the little wet footprint dried too rapidly in the sun.
I considered this photo for Backyard (Day 15), but it is not my backyard, plus I didn't take the photo. I'm just in it.
I took a photo of this arrangement that sits on a table in my living room several times-- Flower (Day 12), Something Old (Day 18), Book (Day 20)-- but it never made the cut.
I mixed up the days and took this photo of our morning banana drink for Refreshing (Day 19) before I realized it was only Day 16!
This was the runner-up for Green (Day 22).
I wanted to use this action shot for Hot (Day 24), but it seemed to illustrate the word sunny more than the word hot.
And finally, I wanted so badly to find a way to make these photos from our visit with our new niece (the kids' cousin) fit Cold (Day 25), but this sweet little bundle was snuggly and warm-- not a bit cold.

I love your outtakes and I love your courage to not explain your photo choices along the way. I always feel like I have to explain. Maybe next time I'll be brave. :)
ReplyDeleteI love all the photos, but the ones of that new little girl are just amazing (maybe even more so because I'm eagerly awaiting my own baby girl).
