Weekly Photo Shots #8

[jerryph]

This week's suggestion... Time.

Anything to do with "TIME"... interpret that in ANY manner that you want.

This is a photo that I took at the Museum Of Appalachia in Tennessee. I antiqued it, so it looks old. (It has been around for a long TIME) It really has, I just helped to make it look old in the photo. (Cox Corn Crib)

That is a wonderful photo. Great job!!

[LensBaby]

Thanks. I had some camera shake, but it added to the photo.

[jerryph]

Great start to the topic! Any idea of the time period of that picture?

[LensBaby]

When I took it you mean? Or when that building was being used?

[dkippen]

Sue - wonderful capture. You can almost feel the time frame and era in this.

[jerryph]

How old is that building? :)

[LensBaby]

Thats what I thought, but I wasn't sure!:o It is from the 1800's ( I think thats what it said), but some of the parts have been restored for the museum. Mark Twains house is there, along with many others. It is a really cool place to visit. This place is FULL of old artifacts, and is on 65 acres with buildings from all over.

[Snappers]

Great topic, I'll see what I can come up with.

[perfectoarts]

Lovely photo and yes, a great topic.
Here is something very different and maybe not very politically correct. Not a photo, but one of my paintings. But I DID take the photograph :)
Their time is so short, yet so beautiful. The summer months are simply precious and I enjoy my time watching them in the garden with their glistening colours in the hot tropical sun.

[LensBaby]

Beautiful Ingrid. I love the colors. Do you take a photo and then do the painting in photoshop, or is it an actual hand painted work of art?

[perfectoarts]

It is an actual painting I did for my daughter. She needed something soft and lovely for her newly decorated small loungeroom.
Yes I do paint, but that is put on the backburner for now. Concentrating more on web designs and photography.
I have actually started a Diploma Course for Professional Photographers for Beginners. Even though it is by correspondence to Sydney, it is very intensive and I am still struggling with the b..... panning :mad:
The rest of the challenges I can cope with and will manage.
Now that the wet monsoon season has finished I will go out there and just keep on practising.

[LensBaby]

You are a great artist! I love the photos. Do you have more on your web site?

[perfectoarts]

Yes, I have some old works on my website and a link on the B&B site.
http://www.nutmeggrove.com.au
http://www.perfectoarts.com.au - you might get lost in that site. Lots of stuff there.

[LensBaby]

I really enjoyed the slide shows of the paintings and the photographs. You are so talented! Very nice!

[dkippen]

Ingrid - you are incredibly talented. I love your work.

[LensBaby]

She is very talented. I wish I could paint. I have always wanted to be able to do oil and acrylic, but I don't know the first thing about it.

[dkippen]

I have a hard time with crayons, much less oil and acrylic. I couldn't even do paint by number as a kid.

[jerryph]

I can paint too, but only if there are some numbers on the paper that I am tracing... lol

Beautiful stuff Ingrid!

[perfectoarts]

Thank you guys for your lovely compliments. I did not pick up a brush until I was nearly 40years old. With acrylics it is so easy. You just keep on painting over and over, until you are happy with it. Most of my canvasses have 2 to 3 paintings underneath them. You should all have a go. You will never never know until you have a go.
Now is it not time to enter a photo for this weekly shot? :)

[jerryph]

I was not sure what time it was, so I looked at the clock... and found out it was TIME for my entry! :p

[LensBaby]

That is also a cool reflection photo as well. Nice job.

[ladyups]

Great capture, Jerry. I'm still behind on this topic...guess I need to capture my busy 'time' and send it in...:)

[Snappers]

OK, It's been a busy week but here is my entry!

It's a bit of a strange entry and I am not entirly sure if I have captured my idea completly but here goes.

The idea was the Ghost of Time. Time flys by so fast at times.

[jerryph]

Very cool shot, Andy!

[Snappers]

Thank you Jerry. Wasn't sure if it would turn out ok.
I knew what I wanted to achieve but actually getting there was a little more difficult. This is why I like these weekly ideas as it makes you think harder about the subject and what you can do which is a little different.

[LensBaby]

WOW! That is amazing. Very cool story idea. I love when photos TELL a STORY.

[Snappers]

Thanks Sue.
