I Heart Faces Photo Challenge - Dramatic Black & White

This week's Photo Challenge on I Heart Faces is "Dramatic Black & White". I took this photo whilst scouting around a Photo Shoot site and found this couple in a secluded area looking like they were in their own little world. I've often looked at the photo and wondered what they were talking about at the time of the photo :)

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge - "Bundled Up"

Eyes Wide Open...

Well, I decided to have abit of a "Field Trip" today, so along with my Mum (Bless Her!) and my 16 month old we trekked into the Wilds (of our neighbouring suburbs at least)... It always amazes me how you can find such treasures and such difference so close to home, basically right under your nose. I live in the middle of cliched "Surburbia" and yet a mere 10 minutes away I can find this....

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge - "Hilarious Out-takes"

This week's Theme for the I Heart Faces Photo Challenge is "Hilarious Out-takes". I was busy scouring through years and years (and hundreds and hundreds of photos) trying in vain to find one that would suit when my 4 year old came up behind me and mumbled "Mummy, I did something.." when I turned around this is what I saw!













I also had to add this one of my other 4 year old. "I love to rea-d-zzzzzzzzzz"






I can't wait to see what other photos are entered this week. Should be fun. If you get a chance, head on over to I Heart Faces and check them out.

fiddle-dee-(Sun)dee

fiddle-dee-(Sun)dee is our day of learning a few Tricks of the Trade from each other.

Download the selected photo and have abit of a "fiddle" (ie edit / apply actions etc) and post it back to pumpkin73@bigpond.com outlining the steps you took to get the final result. These will then be added to the Blog along with "Recipe" and Photographer.

It's always amazing to see how each Photographer's imagination and artistic flair shows itself!

I hope to see some great entries. Give it a Go!!

I have added one of my own Photos to start things off, but please feel free to enter your own and see how other Photographers "fiddle" with it.
