Songongraphy (I want to Break Free) and Scavenger Hunt Sunday - September 8, 2013





Welcome:  This post will include (Song-ography) and (Scavenger Hunt 
    Sunday)



Won't you join me as we go on a musical journey called,  Song-ography brought to you by the uber talented Kathy, You'll Shoot Your Eye Out.

This weeks song:  I Want To Break Free by Queen.

Click to enlarge photos:




I went through some of my photos and found one of a lone seagull in a clear blue sky that I liked.  To me the soaring bird exudes,  Freedom!
Since the original lacked that pizzazz I wanted I added a cloud texture to the shot that just made it have the perfect feel that I was looking for.

I won't wax philosophical about being "free" but I am sure that all of us have something in our lives that we want to "Break Free" from at one time or another.  I hope whatever it is in your life that you find the freedom that you are seeking.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now it's time to join Ashley (Ramblings and Photos) for Scavenger Hunt Sunday.







This weeks prompts:  Labor Day/Work, Phone Call, Pill(s), Up Close and White Space.
 
LABOR DAY:  Okay this photo was actually taken Labor Day weekend and features Coleen on one of the Fair Rides.




PHONE CALL:  For this shot I told Coleen to pretend she was talking on the phone while I took pictures.  She complied and I was snapping away.  After I uploaded the shots I decided to go with this one...


After so long of a time without dialing you get that annoying lady who tells you that if "You'd like to make a call, please hang up and try your call again."  Well she must have came on and Coleen was looking into the receiver and telling her to, "Be Quiet and Go Away".  I thought it was much funnier and cuter then her pretending to talk on the phone so I went with it.
 
PILL:  Pills aren't just for humans:
 
                                     Our kitty, Snickers has to take these.
 
UP CLOSE:  Coleen's Cherry Tomato's.  Check out that tiny one.  It looks fairly large in the photo but it was actually barely the size of her pinkie fingernail.
 
WHITE SPACE:  This one always throws me.  I'm never sure if I've got it right or not.  I'll include the 2 shots I have and you let me know if they qualify for the "White Space" photography idea.
 



 
That's it for this weeks hunt.  I hope you have enjoyed your stay.

  23. Wow! I admire your ability to take a shot and add a different background. Loved the shot of the seagull and the background was perfect! As I said.. I am in awe!

  24. Oh my...that seagull photo DEF has a feeling of freedom to it! And I really like the texture work you did...gorgeous tones. FYI, I'm typing this from 30,000 feet as I fly home from Vegas. Mom thinking I'd much rather be flying solo like this bird than cramped in a metal tube :). Thanks for linking up to Song-ography this week :)

  25. I very much enjoyed my stay. You have such a smattering of interesting images and such unique views. I can go for Freedom too.

  26. Great shots this week! I struggle with white space too. I have no idea if the white space is technically correct, but I love them both!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Again, I've been pouring over your photos with awe! All of your digi art is especially mesmerizing. Someday I'd love to learn some of those techniques and programs. I can't imagine the hours I'd have to put into it... Thanks so much for sharing your art.
