I was not as successful as I had hoped. I did not Get In the Picture as many times as planned during Francine's challenge. No fear, though, as I saw that Francine is extending her own project timeline, too. So as not to be disappointed by my efforts, I am just going to embrace this frame of mind and try to be more aware of taking family photos {with me IN the picture, not just SNAPPING the photo} and asking others to take a photo or two of our family if they see the camera laying around.
There, doesn't that sound do-able? I think so.
Here are my contributions so far to this endeavor:
me in the mirror | my shadow and me
me and him | him and me
she and me | him and me and her
me and her | me taken by him
I'm learning that perfection is not always the best way to go. In these photographs, you'll see blurry ones, shadows in all the wrong places, my Mommy belly, the famous "squint for the camera look" that has ruined many a great photo and a photo converted to black & white to hide that I had no make-up on.
Very strong effort Monika and really fun photos. This is something I definitely need to work on. Going to check out Francine's challenge asap!!
