Photo a Day: Bubbly


Today's word is "bubbly" and I wasn't exactly sure how to tackle this one.  Everything I thought of was pretty cliche so I came up with this and I really like how it turned out!  I just put the strawberry in seltzer water and watched the bubbles go crazy!  It was a lot of fun and super easy.  You can also put a magnifying glass in front of the lens to intensify the effect, which I think I did with this shot.  Go try it out!!

I got bored and started throwing all kinds of things into the seltzer water so enjoy these "bubbly" guys :)

Photo a Day: Knowledge


New Years means something different to everyone.  For some it's a fresh start from the mistakes of years gone by, for others it's just another opportunity to continue achieving their dreams.  Regardless of how you feel, it's a great time to sit and reflect on your life and what you want out of life.  But lets be honest, sometimes that can be a very harsh reality check.  I was just thinking that I have been graduated from college for a year and a half and I still have no idea what to do with myself.  A bit of post-grad depression, if you will.  This New Years, I was feeling a little uninspired and a bit purposeless.  Being the wonderful husband he always is, Brendan gave me a challenge to take a picture every day- based on the word he gives me each day.  So, why not?  I love taking pictures and I want to get better so lets do this.

The word of the day is knowledge.   I just took a pic of the books I've been re-reading and I just love the Great Gatsby's cover.  It's so beautiful.  I love it so much that Brendan got me a t-shirt with the book cover on the front, it's fantastic.
