September 26 Grape Leaves

We stopped at The Three Brother's Winery outside of Geneva, NY on our way home from visiting our daughter. I snapped a few pictures before we made the last leg of the trip home.

September 30 Daily Shoot Vanishing Point

Make a photograph of a vanishing point today made by converging lines.

I took a photo of this hall on the correct day but it was off center. So, today when I went up to school to do some work I took my camera and tried again. I like this shot better.

Power plugs are ubiquitous. Can you make a creative photo of such a common thing? Try it today!

Not terribly creative but I did decide it's time to put the fan away. I don't think we'll be needing again this year. I got a chance to use my new ring flash for this shot. I think I'll be liking this new toy!

September 27 Daily Shoot Brown

Make a photograph today dominated by browns or other earthtones. Explore how the color influences your subject choice.

I thought I'd take a pic of an Octoberfest beer but decided apple cider sounded like a better beverage tonight.

Fences and walls can divide or demarcate. Make a creative photo of a fence or wall today (@muffett68)

Just a wall trying to keep the dirt in the garden.

Daily Shoot Mess


Daily Shoot Mess, originally uploaded by NedraI.

Communicate chaos, disorganization or messiness in a photograph. Find some beauty in it. (@divadeb88)

When I read the word messiness I thought of my table at the end of the day! My new room is small and it doesn't take long for things to pile up. Right now it's mainly paperwork. By the time I leave I make sure that the table is cleared off and ready for a new day. The beauty is the sign; Reading is fun! My goal this year is to get my reluctant readers hooked on books. I've got my work cut out for me.
Photo note I should have changed the aperture so things would have been in focus, oh well.....
