Week4 Photo Challenge: Emotion of Anger

This weeks challenge was very tough for me.  Emotion of Anger is the assignment Professor Spearz gave to her students.  I cannot wait to see what everyone else is submitting to their blogs.  I'm turing in my assignment early since I'll be at Erin's volleyball tourney in Reno this weekend.   Can't wait to read your comments.  I know all my stuff isn't angry but this is a challenge!

Fangs
Making dinner on the gas stove, took a picture of the gas flame, flipped the image and set the temperature

Crackle
Original picture is fallen leaves in front of my house.  Gave it the effect of hot ambers inside a burning log 

Explosion
From my Tiffany lamp, triple the image after setting the exposure

Eye of the Storm
From my Tiffany lamp, playing with the exposure, it almost looks like you can see an oncoming storm in someones eye 

Fire
Adam's Birthday Cake, I really liked how this turned out.  The setting behind the candle reminded me of the earth and the destruction from nuclear attack or Paradise Earth

Week 3 Photo Challenge: A Pet's Perspective

Week 3's photo challenge is "A Pet's Perspective".  Professor Spearz gave her students an assignment that was well received.  These pictures were taken from the eyes of Scout and Dallas.

As Scout & Dally C-it

Oh no Auntie Jennie is gonna be mad when she gets home
(Dallas looking at the garbage he raided for food - wondering how he's going to clean it up before Auntie comes home from work)

Scout heading to the pantry items Dallas pillaged from the pantry

Scout's view sleeping against the cool brick fireplace

Dallas & Scout looking at each other while relaxing

Sissy eating.  Give me some, please, please, PLEASE!

Week 2 Photo Challenge: Blue

A must have!  

Our 2nd week assignment is BLUE. I completely forgot about the challenge and while I was at Walmart, I got an alert from Judith's blog and her BLUE posts. As I was waiting in line checked out line I went through the awesome pictures Jude took around town. In a panic (just kidding) I started seeing BLUE all around me. What I have so far...

My 5th submission....something BLUE!  No, I didn't color this in!  Jeannie was wearing BLUE

I liked the idea of numerous checkout counters, almost looks like you're looking into a double mirror

Week 1 Challenge: Water Glass

My first photo challenge is Water Glass.  Professor Spearz handed out the first challenge to her students this week.  Our homework assignment is to take a picture of an object through a transparent or colored piece of glass. 

This is a bowl my Goddaughter Mary gave me for Christmas (handmade by her mother, Nancy).  I sat the glass on top of the bowl and took a picture looking down into the glass.  I like the colors and the ghostly face image

Erin's Mini Mouse coffee mug sitting behind the glass

Sticking black fingernail polish inside a glass of water.  I like the image of the top of the polish looking like a cup of coffee
