A Photo a Week Challenge: Something Pretty

Welcome to 2021 and a new year of challenges. Sorry about no challenge last week. It’s been a crazy time here in the Good Ol’ US of A. So, with all of the negativity roaming about, I thought we could all do with some brightness and loveliness, so this week is all about pretty things. Any pretty things. This rose is from a trip we took to Spokane, Washington 7 years ago to visit our daughter who was attending Gonzaga Law School at the time. Spokane has a beautiful garden there called the Manito Gardens. I love wandering through all of the different flowers with my camera. I’ve posted several photos from our trips there over the years.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR MORE) OF ANYTHING PRETTY.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

Here’s how it works:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Come back here and post a link to your image in the comments for this challenge.
  4. Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.

A Photo a Week Challenge: Flower

Yesterday was the first day of summer, and we’ve been enjoying spring so much. This spring has been especially amazing for our roses. We have several bushes, and they have all produced amazing blossoms. My favorite is our yellow rose bush. We almost lost it a few years ago during a very harsh winter, but I’m happy to report that it has roar back wonderfully.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO FEATURING FLOWERS OF ANY KIND.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

A Photo a Week Challenge: Three of a Kind

Last week I asked you to obey the rule of threes. This week, I want you to take three photos of the same subject, but from different angles or distances or whatever. This will give you the chance to look at your subject in a lot of different ways. This is the only rule, so have fun.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE THREE DIFFERENT PHOTOS OF THE SAME SUBJECT.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

  1. 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.
