January 6th. So, a challenge from one of my projects is water drop refraction, which i have never done before and is hard. I spent a happy 30 mins in my garden taking pics of wet things ( we have a lot of wet in Cornwall) and did manage to get a decent drop refraction. I was so pleased ( you're welcome to go see in my stream).
However this was the shot of the day for me. Virtually unedited, exposure up a little in Snapseed only. For the 52 projects this may be early but I will do my 52s on a sunday to allow me to stay less confused!

February 4th. Took this this morning. I know it's a classic, but I liked the way the light separated into white below and yellow above, just the way the sun was coming in through the window with the leaf creating a shadow. nothing added in as background. Because it is a shadow I have also put it in to BB52:5 Winter shadows. And because i like it am also using it for my other 52 projects for week 6
I have cranked this up a bit in Snapseed to bring out the colours. But not cropped at all.

August 11th. taken seconds after midnight; saw it, shot it, got lucky with timing. I know now the theme is blue, but I didn't know this at the time I took this. I did have another shot i could have used but i loved this. These party goers were posing and taking photos of their shapes. They did not know I was behind them. I wanted to suggest Charlie's Angels but suspect they were too young.
Us oldies went to bed not long after this and then had a great final day culminating in Noah and the Whale and an Orchestral movie theme evening - a bit like last night of the proms I guess.
we've returned home today (12th) and are exhausted. I have taken pics this evening but need to get my head down. so tired I forgot to add it to the groups - just remedied!
using this for the non themed weekly photo groups

May 11th. Last day of the water theme, it was vaguely sunny. But not warm! The blossom has been blown off the trees. Photo of the week too!

April 23rd. While most of the UK had a lovely sunny day, we had another day of grey, mist and rain. I thought I'd attempt a white on white (grey) shot of blossom before it got blown away by the projected gusts of wind. As I returned to the house there was a brief glimmer of light through the clouds so I took a quick pic and blended them to get some light behind the flowers. I like this but it's not exactly spring like. In fact it's a bit forlorn, much like the bloody weather.
This is my fave pic of the week so adding this to my other 52 projects for week 17
