Self-portrait 365 Project (part 2)

Published by

on

I made it to week 2. Very excited about that.
50 to go!

Last week I was very spontaneous with my self-portraits. This week was better. Before I took my photos, much earlier I already had the idea of how I wanted it to look, sometimes a day in advance (!). It doesn’t mean that at the end the photo looked like I wanted it to be, but at least I had a clue and I worked around it. It wasn’t like that with every single shots, though… just with a few. 

Lets start week no 2:

365/11

That day I almost run out of time. I took this picture very late in the evening.

365/12

Having breakfast. Homemade zesty granola, a few strawberries and blueberries topped with a little bit of plain yoghurt and milk. 

365/13

Growing… .

365/14

Making (eating!!!) cream cheese filling for carrot cake muffins. It was so good. The filling, I mean. Not crazy about the carrot cake itself.

At the same time my daughter was thinking about what to get into while I wasn’t watching. My husband showed her how to use one thing in the kitchen and now she gets into everything. I’m in deep troubles!!!

365/15

I took this picture early morning after having a little bit of trouble with waking up. Later I took another one and I couldn’t decide which one to make my picture of the day so I merged thos two into a one.

365/16

It’s been raining for the last few days. I had a different idea for this shot or at least I had a different picture in my head before I took it. I tried and I tried and my feet got too cold to stand it that freezing (almost) puddle any longer. I’m not happy with this picture at all, because it’s nothing I was hoping for but considering the pain (cold) I went through to take it I’ve decided to use it anyway.

365/17

Don’t need to explain that one, I guess 🙂

I hope everything is well with you. This gloomy weather makes me so lazy, sleepy and more tired that I already had been. Today’s picture instead of a tea should have a package of coffee in it. I was waken up at 6:30 am this morning to a thought: “loud neighbours should be illegal or at least shooting them should be legal”. ugh!

      I do not feel awesome, and I do not think I look awesome, but it’s just me. Being pregnant is not the best time in my life, but thank you for your sweet comment.

    How did you get those
    sweet shots in the kitchen
    with your daughter? Do
    you set up on a tripod and
    use a remote to get the
    shot? Beautiful!

      The camera was on my kitchen table and I set it up to 10 second delay. Before I focused it on the bowl with cream cheese filling. I do not have remonte so I need to get creative to set the focus sometimes. My daughter just walked in. I wasn’t planning for this shot that she’ll be there… but she always follows me so…. there you go! me and my daughter 🙂

    I love the tagline/quote on your header. Is that your own??? If so I would love to use it (and credit you of course). It’s a perfect photography quote. 🙂

    Love your photos…do you use a timer for them, or do you have a remote. Random right?

    I love the breakfast…my growing baby likes it, too..minus the milk, and with a couple chocolate chips.
