52 Week Photo_Week 5-Fruit

I wasn't really sure how I was going to pull this one off because I wasn't in the mood to drive 20 minutes to the nearest grocery/produce store for fruit. 

Luckily, as I was scavenging my land for other things to photograph, I came across wild berries. *Can the universe be ever so kind to have me come across a winning lottery ticket?*

Wild Berries
of some sort


I've been trying to do the research, and so far I'm not sure what I have here. It could be Persimmon. It could be a Silky Dogwood. I have no idea. I'm 99% positive that it's a wild berry. Berries are fruit and unless that has changed at schools too, (Story for another day) here we have it.

52 Week Photo _ Week 3-Children

Week 3, (which I almost had a hard time doing) was children. Because of work and school schedules, I waited until last minute and these were taken Friday morning. 
This is how my kids watch cartoons together. 
And exactly that spread out is how they'll get along.

52 Week Photo _ Week 2-Clouds

Week 2 brings me to taking pictures of clouds. Not too difficult, but certainly not easy especially when you only have 1 day that provides clouds... Nonetheless, here they are
A frosty morning this picture was taken on

52 Week Photo _ Week 1-Self Potrait

It's Friday!!! My 1st week for the challenge is Self Portrait. Let me just say how hard this is for me. As much as I'd like to edit the hell out of my face... I can't do it for real, so I feel obligated to leave all the blemishes (yikes) and just edit with effects. So I did. 
I had fun with it... As much fun as you can anyways ;)

52 Week Photo Challenge

Last year I did the 'Twelve in 2014' photo challenge/journal. A once a month photo journal of my favorite photo(s) of my kids.  I loved it. Sometimes it was hard to capture photos of my kids though. This year, I'm challenging myself even more. 

Here's to 2015 bringing me the 52 Week Photo Challenge:

I invite ANYONE with a camera to join in. And if none of you don't.... "Off with your heads"..LOL. 

Seriously, I'm taking this challenge to better my skills. It's always more fun to do with someone, but I'm a big girl ;)
