Our Clickin Moms blog circle continues this month w/the theme "Shooting Through Glass." Now let me just say that every month when I hear the theme I think to myself "Oh Cool! I'm REALLY going to get creative with this one. And then life happens and I find myself taking my theme photos the day before in a bit of a hurry, BUT regardless, it's still been a great motivation to capture something for me and a reminder to get out and document a little bit of our lives too.
Back to the theme...We have been growing sunflowers! Both Ashlyn and Dominic have loved watching their flowers change each day and watering them especially. The pots sit outside the toy room window on our porch, so they are often looking back to see if they got bigger again. It has been so fun seeing how amazed they are when they go to look each morning. I think we'll be needing to re-pot these soon as they really are growing fast! So I decided to capture the view from our toy room. This was not only shooting through glass, but also a screen and a whole lot of pollen...but I kind of liked the fuzzy effect that caused and even the yellowing a bit. I shot in manual focus to avoid focusing on the window dirt and angled myself to minimize some glare and reflection.
This was fun- and now I'm motivated to go do some more "through glass" shots!
But till then...be sure to check out Michelle's interpretation of the theme (link below)!
Waiting....
Not quite through glass, but I loved his wide eyed expression in the reflection so including anyhow ;)...
And of course a little (almost) 4 year old humor ;)
