Weekly Photo Feature: Chaos

I suppose this might be a different definition than I was originally thinking.. But the fact that it was 70-degree weather yesterday, and today it's snowy.. I think it's ok! I let my hair dry naturally today and it was crazy. But that's my hair! So I had some fun outside!

Weekly Photo Feature: In the Window

Early! Thought I'd do it before I forgot.. Here is a photo of my chickens. We have Red, Orange, Orange Cream (she has a little more white in her feathers), and Black. Black is the oldest; we've noticed more of a limp in her step lately, but she is getting old. We bought the other three at the same time. They each have personalities and they are so much fun to have. Especially now that it's warmer, we can enjoy them out of their coop. Whenever there is activity in the kitchen, they insist on being as close to the sliding glass door as they can get. Sometimes, I can even hear them pecking the glass curiously.

Weekly Photo Feature: Macro

Late! But I have more than one photo!! If you were to go through all of the photos I've taken since I first got into photography, you'd notice that most of what I photograph is taken in macro mode. I just love capturing textures and little details. I was a little distracted, or I would have had many more photos to post here! The first is a photo of one of our chickens, Red. We named her that because she is obviously red, but her breed is called Rhode-Island Red. Here's her feathers!

The second photos is of Cody's '94 Jetta when he had the hood up. Sadly, he is not going to attempt to fix it anymore. It's been a great car for him, but it's just been too expensive to keep as a project car. It's pretty sentimental for me because that's the car he had while we were dating. Now he is using pieces of it to fix another Jetta of the same body style, which is a TDI (diesel with a turbo!), and I think that will help the '94 live on in our hearts.

The third and final photo doesn't go with the theme, but I loved it anyway.

Weekly Photo Feature: Shifting Seasons

A little early, but I wanted to get a head-start so I don't skip again! Since it is still pretty cold here, I just have snow.. But I found some green in a paw-print!

Weekly Photo Feature: Black & White

Same shoot as the bridge {cheater} but I couldn't resist! I love park benches..

Weekly Photo Feature: Bridge

Super late, but here it is! This is the only bridge I know about in our area, but I'm sure I'm just oblivious. It was a little cold, but I thoroughly enjoyed this shoot.

Weekly Photo Feature: Self-Portrait

I didn't get to use the camera I would prefer, but it turned out ok. This has been kind of an off week for me. But hey, what do ya do, right? Anyway.. Here's me!

Weekly Photo Feature: Outside Looking In

My cute ladybug who sits at our front window to welcome guests :)

Weekly Photo Feature: Liquid

I was looking all week for a puddle of some kind to photograph, but it's been too cold! So, here's my kitchen faucet! I loved how the camera caught the bubbles when I had it on high..

Weekly Photo Feature: Symmetry

Sorry it's so late! I had a lot of fun with this one, even though I was worried.. Can I tell you how much I love these chairs? We inherited the round table when Cody's Grandmother passed away last year and then we bought these chairs at a yard sale soon after. One of the best purchases I've ever made! If only they had arm rests, I would probably read in them. So comfy!

Weekly Photo Feature: Doorways

Weekly Photo Feature: Reflections

I wish I had been able to find a puddle to use with this theme.. but I still love taking photos in mirrors. Sorry it's late! I even took the photo on Saturday, but then spaced posting it..

Weekly Photo Feature: Expressions

This has happened more than once at our house, but this is a little container lid that fell from the top of the dishwasher, down to the heating coils.. Here is it's "I'M MELTING..." face:

Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! I'm still recovering, but I wanted to make sure I put this photo up! Also, here is the monkey my Dad got for Christmas.. so creepy!

Weekly Photo Feature: Signs

I slacked a bit with this one, but it's the first "welcome" sign we received when we moved into our new house. I love it! Maybe I'll get another one later this week to make up for it..

Coming up next week?

Weekly Photo Feature!!

My brother Kris and his sister-in-law Bonnie have invited me to take part in their "weekly photo feature with a specific theme" to improve on our photography. I'm pretty excited! During the winter, it's a little harder for me to feel inspired to take photos, so I'm hoping this will hype me up more! I will start posting the photos sometime this week and this week's theme is "Signs" .. Get excited! lol
