In the spirit of being observant and wanting to give myself something to focus on through the year, I have made myself a photo hunt list. I have done these before and stressed about doing them to time etc, which rather defeats the object, so this time I have just picked a few descriptors and given myself a couple of loose 'rules' (and I'm not going to stress if I break them!) - I will aim to find 4 things from the list each month, from photos I have taken during that month and post them at the beginning of the following month. The descriptors are up for interpretation and, interestingly with so many to choose from I found it hard to decide which category to use for this month's selection - I imagine it will get a bit harder as the year goes on!
So, my list is..
Something unexpected Something tasty
Something thought provoking Something orange
Something exotic Something shiny
Something interesting Something dirty
Something exciting Something colourful
Something that makes you happy Something fluffy
Something rough Something light
Something golden Something green
Something free Something tall
Something important Something alive
Something yellow Something black
Something valuable Something with wheels
Something old Something smooth
Something fresh Something short
Something smaller than a mouse Something white
Something purple Something with hair
Something you love Something special
Something glittery Something heavy
Something soft Something pink
Something wet Something noisy
Something that moves Something blue
Something tiny Something hard
Something sharp Something clean
Something you can eat Something red
And in January I photographed...
Something yellow...
Waymarkers standing out brightly through my woodland walk...
Something colourful...
My rainbow stash buster blanket...
Something tall...
Although this was almost something unexpected, because this was such a straight path with that one random tree in the middle!
Something rough...
Which I was also undecided about because in the light it looked glistening white and smooth, but to touch and through the distance of the lens it seemed most appropriate for rough.
