You Capture - Quiet

I am going to admit right now that I feel like crap.  I'm praying I'm not getting sick.  Didn't anyone remind my body that getting sick does not fit into my schedule?  So, with that said, I did attempt to find some "quiet" pictures this week.  But my week is rarely quiet.  So here goes.

My backyard.  From this picture, it looks quiet and peaceful.  And actually it was.  All the craziness was going on inside the house.


And this one? 
It reminds me of playing hide and seek.  
Being extra quiet while peeking out to see if the "it" person is coming.

So there you have it.  My "quiet" pictures.  What did you capture this week?

    Craziness inside the house: check! Sorry to hear you're getting sick. Hope the quiet soothes you.

    Second photo is definitely creative - and I love the first picture. Sadly, even outdoors was crazy this week. (Lots of neighborhood kids NOT being quiet!)

    Yep, to find the quiet, we pretty much can count on having to LEAVE the house in search of it. Speaking of searching, I LOVE that hide and seek picture!

You Capture - DOF

Image
I loved this challenge.  I've been striving to find "the" depth of field picture that just speaks to me.  Luckily I had lots of opportunity this past weekend to find the pictures I wanted to.  On Saturday I boarded a bus to California's Amador County wine country and visited 4 different wineries with a friend. These were so bright and beautiful and simple. The colors!! Perfection! I took about 20 pictures of this door trying to get this perspective.  I love this one.  This was another one that was may favorite of about 20.   I think it's the burst of orange.   I can't wait to see all the beautiful pictures everyone else is going to post over at Beth's.

You Capture - Best Shot

Image
I suppose after two weeks of getting assignments and pictures that I *really* liked, it was time for me to struggle.  I wasn't taking any pictures that just spoke  to me.  But then again, it took me a long time to start taking pictures that I really liked. But I do have a couple that I think were my best for the week.  Hey, I've got an idea! Let me share them with you! This was taken on a hike the two older girls and I took last week.   And then we had our first harvest. One lone strawberry.  There are many more growing.  We are trying to keep the birds from nibbling on them before we get a chance to pick them.  Check out what other's thought was their best shot over at Beth's.

You Capture - Faces

Beth? Are you out there?  Because I loved this challenge.so.much.   I think I captured a lot of love here too.  Oh, how I love her sweet face! And check out the eyelashes!! I thought only boys had eyelashes like that! (Do you like the bedhead too?) He is one of my most favorite people!  This is my honey, my rock, my money-maker, the love of my life! (Yes, sappy. But after more than 15 years together I still like him!) This is the other "man" in my life.  This is Bear.   He is sweet and stubborn and very jealous when it comes to sharing me with T.   This is "my" girl (the middle child).  She is the only one who looks enough like me for it to be obvious that she's my kid. She is so sweet and full of generosity and love.  Did you see the letter she wrote me the other day? No?  Go here and see.   And last, but certainly not least.  Me.  A sweaty mess after running 5+ miles wearing my awesome Team In Training training T-shirt.  This is the face a happy runner.   (F
