Week 8 - Spirit

I found the "Spirit" theme this week to be a bit difficult to nail down. Spirit can mean so many things. I went with a more "ethereal" look to my first two photos. They were taken while riding in a car at night and due to slow shutter speeds and a misty window, the pictures are blurry. This is what gives them an airy feel.

These next photos were taken with flash (not my favorite source of light, but I use what works). This is Rocky, my granddog! He is like a little person; he is so smart! The "spirit" in these photos is Rocky's outgoing personality. He's a little spitfire, enjoying lots of activities and games. I chose the solid background so the focus is on him, not on what's around him. Isn't he cute?!




These are the upcoming themes I will be capturing:

Feb 28 Vegetables (due by midnight on Mar 6)
Mar 07 Underneath (due Mar 13)
Mar 14 Spring/Autumn
Mar 21 Planning
Mar 28 Fools Portrait of a wonderful person

If you want to join in, post one photo to my Facebook wall each week according to that week's theme.

I really don't like the March 28 theme as we should not call anyone a fool, so I am going to change it to "Portrait of a wonderful person." That will be much more fun to capture!
