An emotion driven experience

Every month a Creativity Exercise is posted on Clickin Moms. Novembers challenge was to photograph one or more eggs. Eggs? I thought about this one for awhile. How did I want to photograph one, or possibly a dozen eggs. For me it all came down to a sunny afternoon, and the amazing stream of light that was falling on our kitchen table. I’m quoting this directly from the post on Clickin Moms: “Keep in mind that beautiful photography very frequently isn’t about the subject itself but is often about the quality of the light and the way the photographer perceives and chooses to render that subject. Pay close attention to your light and shadows, and make the ordinary extraordinary!” This is exactly how I felt and what I saw when I took on the *challenge. It was fun to shoot for me, push myself creatively. S.L.O.W. down and manually focus on my subject. I’m beyond proud that one of my images that I submitted was chosen as Editors Choice!
