cheatin' on the photo challenge :(( original, just not recent

happy saturday folks-- and welcome to my photo challenge entry --
yeh, peoples, i waited til the last minute; again. i would have probably got some pretty good shots for this, IF i would have fully understood the subject, from the beginning. but--- i did not. i thought it was all about the camera-- not the subject. forgive me.
so-- i got a very late start -- like twenty minutes ago-- from, right where i sit.

subject being;
LIGHTING:

of 2010

Hahaha, you DID it! And it's not cheating if you go into your photo inventory. LOL, there is no photo challenge police officer, so anything goes!

WOW, THAT'S A BIG FISH! I hate those screaming guys too on the Staples commericals, LOL! Love how the light plays off of the fish scales. The UFOs in the snowing picture are snow flakes, captured by your flash (just guessing). And soulkid blowing out the sweet 16 candles. That wins the sentimental award, LOL. Bravo!

And I'm not planning on making money from photography any time soon. There are a blue million folks out there who could all do coffee table books, LOL. I appreciate your kind and sweet words.

Donna said...
