Week 31 - Our Favorites!

The theme this week was "SKY" - I knew this week's MCP Project 52 was going to be a great week because I'd get to see the world through this Flickr project. {This might be my favorite part of Flickr} We went everywhere this week and it was AWESOME. I loved all the cornfields, the mountains and seeing a little Niagara Falls. There were lots of things to like, different times of day, even night & some great lightning storms. It was very impressive. Many thanks to these photographers and their inspiring photographs. If you enjoy the photo, the links to the artist are below. Click on & give them some love. Everyone likes a pat on the back, so pat away. {do it} Now, on to our top ten, as always, in no particular order.

And now for Ellenburg Photography's photo of the week...Sunday, while my husband went to see the olympic boxing trials, I packed up the kiddies and we drove around Creola, Alabama after the latest Mobile County Rain storm. I found some really great sky. This was my favorite:

This week, I have a tip. Landscape photography is tough, especially if you're running around without a tripod. When you're editing your photos, sometimes the sky looks a little grainy. Clouds can be a rough customer. I've had a lot of success with a program called define 2.0 - it's part of the NIK software family & I'm a huge fan of the whole collection. Define plugs right into photoshop and in my opinon is worth it's weight in gold and is quite magical the first time you use it. You might like it. Visit www.niksoftware.com and check out the free trial.

Week 32's theme is "My Favorite time of Day" - this leaves the door wide open for your creative juices to start flowing. As for me...it could be my first cup of coffee while the house is still quiet or sunset in Creola, Alabama or the Mr. Bubbles Party at evening bath time with my 3 year old mini-me. What ever your favorite time of day is...I can't wait to see you photograph it!
