I love watching my husband at work. He is so good at so many things, like splitting wood. We have to keep the cabin supplied with fresh cut wood, especially now that the temperatures are dropping and we we are lighting fires more and more. My camera has a great cluster shooting mode that I’ve used many times.
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A SERIES OF PHOTOS THAT SHOW ACTION.
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″ and “Photo a Week” tags.
- 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.

Brings back memories of chopping wood for our wood-burning stove in Cleveland. Great exercise!

It is. He loves doing this. Unfortunately, the chain saw lost it’s chain, so he couldn’t cut as much as he wanted to.
😢
What a great idea for a challenge (and compliments on a handy handsome husband). My action sequence was never meant to be black & white but somehow it worked better in monochrome (also, I didn’t want to put anybody in need of major eye surgery, considering the colour sense of my friends).
Thanks!
Great action shots, Nancy. There’s quite an art to chopping wood.
Thanks! He really has the knack.
Every time someone I know splits logs, I’m sure they are going to cut off a foot. So far, nothing worse than a piece of finger, but axes and husbands who aren’t sure how to light a barbecue really frighten me!
LOL! Fortunately for me, mine can chop wood and light a barbecue. 🙂
