Photo 26. Topic = Feeling Like a Teacher.

It is SUCH a beautiful day outside today! The birds are chirping, sun is in the sky, and I can wear my flip-flops! I did not want to waste this day and I had to get some reading done. This was around 3:00 so I was a little hungry (feeling a bit like the "Hungry Caterpillar") so I walked outside with a book, apple, and of course my camera in hand. I layed my book down and noticed the vibrant colors on the apple and how the sun was glowing. I posed my apple and book and layed down and took this picture. I love it!

Challenge Photo 25. Topic = People and Stained Glass are the Same.

If you were a little confused by the topic title, I understand. The reason why I put that is because I read a quote today that said "People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within." This is so true and goes along with the kiwi picture. I typed a quote about a iceberg in the kiwi post and a kiwi and stained glass do the same thing. Kiwis look odd at first glance but the inside is beautiful. Stained glass looks dull when its in the dark but shine like the sun when near light.

Day 24. Topic = Beauty of Nature

Have you ever wondered what life is like through someone else's eyes! That is what I love photography. I can take my image of something and convert it into a photo. Today I saw a dandelion and was looking at it and thought "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if that little weed grew and grew 20 feet high and stood as tall as the trees?" So that is just what I tried to show in this photo. I like this picture because you can see the sunset in the background.

Post #23. Topic = Dog's Are Woman's Best Friend.

Someone once said "You can say any fool thing to a dog, and the dog will give you this look that says, `My God, you're RIGHT! I NEVER would've thought of that!'" and I agree with this statement. My dog, Max, has been with me through thick and thin. My family got him when I was seven and I love him. He was there when we moved, twice. When I felt lonely, he was always right beside me. Through all my friends, he has been there the longest. Sometimes I get annoyed having to take him for walks but I remember all the times I would get in trouble and he would come and lay in my lap. He also keeps all my secrets.

Photo number 22. Topic = Fruitarian.

A fruitarian is someone that only eats fruit. I have to say that I am definitely NOT one of those people. I do love fruit though, especially kiwis. There colors are so radiant too so that is why I snapped this picture. I also love all the details the seeds make. They remind me of the way people judge. They see the outside, which for kiwis is a brown furry skin, and do not see all the beauty that is in the inside. A good friend of mine told me a quote the other day, it said "People judge like iceburgs. They only see the 10% that is visible but not the other 90% hidden within."

Day 21. Topic = When Procrastinating is Good.

So today I was gone ALL day. I went to and event where I could rollerskate and play a game of bowling. Think about all the good photos I could have took! When I left this morning it was early and I was not thinking at all and forgot my camera. While at this event I kept on looking around thinking "That's a good photo, OHH! that would make a good photo too!" This happened to me ALOT today when I did not have my camera. So when I got home it was close to dark so I grabbed my camera and took this photo of the trees from my porch. I really was not wanting to edit it but if I didn't you would not be able to tell what it was because it was so dark. I think sometimes it works out when you delay what you have to do.

Photo number 20. Topic = Picasso Impersonator.

This morning I had the chance to go to a local pottery making place. You can either choose to paint something that has already been made (like some friends did that I went with.) or you can start at the bottom and sculpt your own masterpeice (like I did). This was a friends of mines color choices that she chose to paint dots on a coffee mug. My pottery peice that I made is not done yet BUT I will go back in a couple of  weeks after it has been in the kilm and I will paint it. It might be the subject for a picture.
