Sorry about the late posting for this week’s challenge. I guess my photo is my excuse. Yesterday was insanely busy, and I didn’t realize that I missed the challenge until I was in bed last night. This week’s challenge is all about mixing squares and circles. Photography is a rectangular activity. Even though our lenses are round, the output is not. You can create a round image using post-processing methods. You can also create a round image using scissors on a print (very old-fashioned). I used the cropping tool in Photoshop to put my round pie into a square.
For anyone who is interested: my pie is a take on a blueberry sour cream pie recipe that I found online. A friend asked me to make a pie for a church fundraiser dessert auction dinner that’s tonight. When I mentioned the blueberry pie, she asked me to it with raspberries instead (she’s not a fan of blueberries) because she wants to buy it. I hope it tastes as good as it looks.
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR MORE) FEATURING SQUARES AND CIRCLES TOGETHER IN YOUR IMAGES.
Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.
Here’s how it works:
- Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.
- To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.
- Come back here and post a link to your image in the comments for this challenge.
- Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.
Your pie looks scrumptious, Nancy. 😍
Thanks!
It does look delicious.
I love the blueberry version, so I hope the raspberry one is just as good. 🙂 Thanks!
I would like that too. A type of wild blueberry we call wimberries grows on the moors overlooking my home town. I’ve been collecting and eating them for as long as I can remember.
Sounds amazing! Utah is not a good climate to grow blueberries. I really wish is was.
Fortunately I’m very full from dinner, which ended with blueberry crisp. 🙂 But your pie sounds delicious.

Thanks!

That raspberry pie looks gorgeous, Nancy. My sugar levels are rising!
And it was a fun theme, though it took me ages to decide what to post! Here you are at last – something from my archives: https://travelwithintent.com/2019/05/22/geometrics-in-berlin/
Looking good enough to eat *smile
The person who bought it said it was really good.
So you didn’t have a piece?????
Sorry, you made it for someone. Totally forgotten. I’m sure it’s were tasty as it looks. I can’t make pies. Have given up now. *smile
🙂 No worries. I often make pies for us, too. This one is pretty easy. No baking involved. Good luck!
No baking???!!! Need the recipe. I love pie … but can never get it right. *smile

You can make the berry topping using the instructions in the recipe, or buy canned pie filling. Also, I actually like it best in a graham cracker crust instead of a baked crust.
Thanks, Nancy … will give it a go. *smile …
Ready to eat!
🙂
