For this week it was a special assignment for the 365 Challenge group.
6 challenges, 1 each day
We had to do 6 different things for this week; one each day. I didn’t do it in a specific order.
6- Color Blue
1- Long Exposure (more than 5secs)
2- Happiness
5- Water
4- A Self-portrait
3- Food
And the Free subject for Sunday:
We had a great day yesterday at Little Closets… I have to say that a lot of the kids were a little grumpy because it was their lunchtime, but with the help of the parents and friends we managed to get some shots with really cool expressions.
Check out the gallery to see my favorites images.
I still need to work on them so parents need to wait for a bit!
