I was stocking our camper for a weekend trip to Cape Cod when I caught a furtive movement out of the corner of my eye--Mr. Toad! He was remarkably fearless. He maintained a stoic expression while this huge ungainly creature crawled around pointing a black object at his face. It was hard to find a filter that worked with this photo. In the end, I settled on Watercolor; but I like the original much, much better.
If you don't want him send him Fedex Express to Tammy her kids love these guys, just don't tell her first - Let it Be a Big Surprise when she opens the Box, wish I could be a fly on the wall for that!
...is to fill 52 themes, one a week for the year. Some weeks, maybe I'll try to find several photos to fit the themes. Others, I may spend more time trying to perfect one that seems best to represent the theme. Three years of a photo-a-day opened my eyes, now I want to hone my skills.
Somehow, a camera allows me to see more deeply and awakens the eye. For me, undertaking these year-long challenges is a way to become more aware of the world that swirls around me.
I like the original too, it shows the texture of his skin much better! He doesn't seem to mind you chasing him down! :)
