I<\/span> can’t believe I’ve got more than 90 per cent of my second 365 project in the can. Did this year just fly by or what?<\/p>\n

This week’s pictures are all over the map. Actually, that’s not quite true — they were all taken within or around Manotick. But I couldn’t really come up with any sort of cohesive theme outside of “I really don’t have time for Project 365 this week!”<\/p>\n

I like it best when cuteness asserts itself for the photographic taking, like when Willie hopped up onto the table to try to entice Tristan away from his homework. I thought him settling in on the Petit Robert was pretty cute, but the yawn was an unexpected bonus that I just happened to be ready to catch.<\/p>\n

I tried to play with a longer exposure and pan the camera with the movement of these geese, but I’m not thrilled with the result. It was an idea better in concept than execution, I think, but it was the best of the lot and I didn’t have any other pictures for the day. It was fun spooking a giant flock of geese into flight just by stopping by the side of the road, though!<\/p>\n

When I saw this stump with its little ecosystem, it looked like a faerie playground to me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

And then we had snow! I was pretty excited to see how much snow fell when we woke up on Wednesday — and by the time we got everyone into their boots and ski pants and scarves and hats, I was pretty much done with winter. Lucas seemed plenty perplexed by the white stuff!<\/p>\n

I’ve been playing a lot with textures lately, and I really love the effects from the Spring Painterly sets from Flypaper Textures<\/a>. I love how the brush strokes and deep blue hues transformed this rather mundane photo into something moody and a little mysterious. I’m really pleased with this one!<\/p>\n

I used another texture from the Spring Painterly set to enhance this picture of some fall berries.<\/p>\n

And last but definitely not least — yes, it’s that time of year again! We hauled out the Santa hats and turned the porch into a portrait studio again. This one is one of the outtakes, but I like the expressions on their faces and the interaction.<\/p>\n

At the end of the day, they’re still my very favourite subjects to photograph. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
