Photo Challenge # 27 Motion

Hi guys, I am of to the Netherlands for 4 days so I will not be able to shoot new photo's for this Challenge but did remember having these two pictures taken earlier this month when we were on one of our trips. Here we were at a little Zoo that had a fun playgound . Martin love the little cars that he was able to drive and in the bottum picture he was enjoying the carosel :)

Photo Challenge # 26 Weather

Well winter finally arrived, it started to snow last saturday and it didn't stop until sunday morning. Leaving us with a beautiful snow covered landscrape and sunshine :)

Now I have to tell you that my kids were a little confused that mommy did come out with them
when they wanted to play in the snow but didn't take any picture of them at first, instead being more interested in shooting snow covered trees! LOL

Photo Challenge #25 Low light

This is a great challenge. I totally love low light pictures although they are hard to get right :) This top picture is taking in one of favorite outdoor museum in Switzerland. In this mueum they have many old swiss houses that you may enter. This top picture was taken in a very old kitchen ( not mine :)

The next two picture where during one of our campertrips where we stopped for the night at this beautiful lake.

Photo Challenge # 24 Macro

On our last camper trip I we went to a modeltrain expo. I made lot's of close up pictures of cute situations and thanks to Helen who pointed out to me that I already have a macro picture :)

I totally love raindrops and that why I just had to enter a photo into this challenge

Last saturday I went for a walk outdside with the kids when this little leave cought my eye and I just had to make this picture! Hope that it still counts as a marco shot although the subject is a little futher away :)

Photo Challenge # 23 Make Over

This weekend we were on the road with our camper and woke up in this beautiful misty landscape. But then when the sun came through the trees it looked amazing and I didn't know how fast to could get to my camera and go outside. My dh had no idea what I was doing. But later that day at home, he really like the result when I showed his this picture.


Last week we suddendly had a lot of snow so I had the chance to take this picture! Tried to do something different with this so Photoshoped it with a lot of filters untill I got this effect that I liked :)

Challenge # 22 SOOC

Although this challenge sounds so easy I really had a hard time with this one! The weather was beautiful yestureday so the perfect time for a walk with the family and for me to bring my camera to hunt for the right picture for this challenge! The had this was to get the ligting just right right way! Not to happy with my results but here they are!

At the farm close by is a place where there jumpers can land. As soon as we have good weather you can see them come down throughout the day. Because yesturday was sunday a lot of them came down. So I wasn't just lucky being at the right place at the right time. But it is always a great sight to see them land. Ofcours I couldn't leave the farm with out taking a picture of a cow :)

In this picture I liked the cold blue sign against the warm green grass.

Photo Challenge#21 Zen

Hi guys, if you are wondering if I got stuck in the colors of nature challenge, you might be right a little :) But not entirely. For me Zen photographs have a sense of calm and peace in it! That's the reason I chose to make these two photo's. In my first entry I love how the light hits the leave with the frozen waterdrops on it! ( which you can see really good when you click on the photo )

My second entry was made in the small harbour at our lake. The lines on the water is made by a sailboat!
