52Frames - Show Us Your Toys, Extra Challenge - Flat Lay: Feeling Fancy.

This challenge was quite the learning experience with more adjustments to be made in another "go around."

Now to go write something. Does anyone do that anymore?

Attempt to capture the Moon- The Beaver Moon.

A wind through the veil to the spirit world, whispered of a place that went above and beyond decorating for Halloween this year.

Who has the Mondays?

52Frames: Center Composition. I overthought the exercise too much this week, so ended up with this glowing pumpkin in honor of decorative gourd season.

52Frames - Shadows: L'enfance Dans L'ombre - Childhood in the shadows. It just sounded cooler in French. :-)

Sharing the great work of a friend who has tapped into these "trying times" to create a powerful show on exhibit now at the Library Gallery at Sacramento State University.

52Frames - Time: Happy Birth Days: The passage of time and generations through the news media.

Harvest Moon is up.

52Frames: Soundtrack - Gate to Home. My soundtrack - The San Francisco Bay. No matter where I'm living in the world, I always return home. I get a bit out of sorts if I'm gone too long, so I had to go home and dip my toes into the Bay and Pacific Ocean to recharge.

52Frames - Texture: Powder Avalanche. A little something silly: I feel like we are inundated and buried by health information trends - this time around, it's protein. Here, Lego ladies is buried in an avalanche of sticky, gloopy, gritty protein powder.

Soundtrack - The Gate to Home. My soundtrack - The San Francisco Bay Area. No matter where I find myself living in the world, I always return home. I get a bit out of sorts if I'm gone too long, so I had to dip my toes in the Bay and the Pacific Ocean to recharge.

52Frames: Out of Place - Happy Hour. I'm very grateful to the models @roseriotphotography on Insta.

On my computer, the bright jewel-colored version looks great. On the phone, the muted-colored version gives a cool vibe.

Thank you!

52Frames: Shoot From Above - Toot My Own Horn.

I don't know what about "shoot from above" made me think of a bean mosaic, but here we are. The beans are cranberry beans, yellow-eyed peas, calypso beans, red lentils, black beans, and Peruvian mayocoba beans.

52Frames: Reflections- Psychedelic Bubble Mushrooms. The camera didn't like focusing on bubbles. I ended up with psychedelic bubbles missing their middles or bubble mushrooms launching into space.

Peace!

This sounds like a death squad.

52Frames: Low-Key - Dare to turn. Door to anywhere.

52Frames: Abandoned. I didn't get to do the big shoot I had planned for this theme, but lucky me, I found this abandoned wasp nest in a doorway. Thankfully, no one is home.

52Frames: Macro - Catching Rays. I don't have a macro lens, so I used macro filters. The filters got me closer to the subject, but not a lot, and sharpness was a challenge.

#3 - playing with floor tile.
#4 - focus stacking on Sony.

Still lots to learn.

52Frames: Color Temperature - Fan Fiction. It's hot; it's humid. That this fan will cool you is pure fiction. The ugly scones are warm/yellow tinted, so I boosted the Kelvin to 6700 - 7200 to mix with the red ambient color cast.

52Frames: Unusual Crop: Cat Eye. As per usual, I didn't set out to use Smith for this task, but I didn't like how the other subjects turned out. Who's watching who?

A visiting friend took particular delight in the font choice of the Waffle House Museum signage - different from the current block letters in that this sign is almost dripping with syrup.

52Frames: Fluid. Of course, I had an epic concept that would have involved 15 people and intense editing, but my time was taken up around actual fluid this week.

52Frames Weekly Challenge: Daily Ritual. Morning coffee in a Bavarian china demi-tasse cup shined on by morning sun.

Playing with "What I took; what I made with a building I've since learned is home of the Fulton Cotton Mill Lofts.

52Frames - Wrong Lens: 54 Columns. 54 Columns is an art installation said to represent the Atlanta Skyline before "stuff" impeded the view, and it became what it is today.

Thank you so much.
