MARCH 11, 2004 – THEME: BIKE

I’m not sure if this photo is in alignment with the Theme Thursday guidelines. I used the negative effect on my spiffy Sony Mavica camera to produce this one. So, technically, I didn’t digitally enhance the photo. The camera did. Below is a photo without the effect.

These photos are hot off the press, or rather, the floppy disk, taken just this morning.

Runners Away

The theme for yesterday’s Theme Thursday was “desperation.” For my entry, I had a tough time deciding which photo to choose as the best one. I had to get my good Friend D to take a look at the pics and give me her expert opinion as to which one was the best.

My kids and a few of their friends helped me to make this photo. We had a blast making it. I guess blasts are bound to happen when you use a gun as a prop. Yes, it was a real gun. No need for worry though. It’s a Daisy Red Ryder bb gun. (That’s right. Just like Ralphie wanted in “A Christmas Story.”) It was my father’s when he was a boy. It couldn’t even break the skin of a fly anymore. When it shoots, the bb curves. You have to aim 45 degrees to the left of anything you hope to hit!

Well, here are the runners up. (Or should they be called the “runners away?”)

“DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES”

I had big plans for a good photo for this week’s Theme Thursday topic. However, around 6 PM, a migraine came to visit. This time I experienced the blind spots twice in the first few hours. Left very exhausted after that, I had to except that this week’s photo project would be left unfinished.

Or maybe not…

This photo was taken by my daughter. Notice that none of the objects are completely in the photo. It’s all pretty much unfinished.
