July 28: Finally home again, albeit sans truck and camper--the one at the Dodge place in Oneonta, the other parked on my mother's front lawn. I found time to go to Bible Babes, stopping at the orchard on my way back. The apples were ripening nicely. Oddly enough, filters just didn't "stick" to this photo. I think it's the smoothness of the surface of the apples: nothing much changed with any of the color filters. So I went for a variation of selective color to make the fruit stand out.
...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.
These beautiful colors have no need for a filter, it is very nice on it's own!
