Although I've managed to leave the house twice this past week (!) I didn't actually have enough spoons to take any photographs. So a sign needed to be found in the house.

After a break - both for AppIt! and for me - the challenge returns. This time the photo comes from iHeart.

I've avoided iPA for a while, along with a lot of things, because...oh a multitude of reasons. Mostly because I'm aware that I can no longer keep up with much and just posting and not commenting/replying much stresses me out with guilt.

Also, my muse doesn't seem to approve of my mood of late and has gone elsewhere.
Till Appit started.
The photo is of a tree.
Just a tree.
In a field.
...and I couldn't for the life of me decide what to do with it apart from alter its colour etc. But it's turned into a journey of app revisiting and I'm having fun.

week 4 of project 52. the title is 'up'. as usual i am a little limited by my health so it's another indoor shot. this time i'm posting a different image here than on google+ because poor little 'rule of thirds' got no attention last week. i suspect it veered too far away from what photogrpahers consider to be photography. here it is...

Up_watermarked
taken with the iOS5 camera app, then processed with

'camera+', 'segmentix', 'filterstorm', 'scratchcam'. 

I use 'strip designer' for the framing of multiple images and 'iWatermark' to watermark.

The title for this weeks project 52 is 'Rule of thirds', here's an explanation over on Wikipedia. Due to being housebound, the opportunies for a particularly interesting photo are somewhat limited so I though I'd approach it from a different direction.

I was reading an interview with David Hockney in last weeks Radio Times and one of the illustrations was one of his massive images made from smaller parts.

Hockney_interview
Hockney has a new exhibition opening at the Royal Academy from the 21st January 2012. There's been a small amount of broohaha about it with regard to him making a dig at Hirst. Here're some relevant links for those interested;

Interview with Andrew Marr 

A new way of seeing

Damian Hirst spot paintings...

Enough about where the idea came from, here are the 2 images I came up with;

Figured that this is kind of a cross between a Christmas tree and a firework, so would be ok to illustrate my New Year's eve greeting.

Christmas_tree_450_x_600

An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in.  A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.  ~Bill Vaughan

The merry year is born Like the bright berry from the naked thorn. ~Hartley Coleridge

The Old Year has gone.  Let the dead past bury its own dead.  The New Year has taken possession of the clock of time.  All hail the duties and possibilities of the coming twelve months!  ~Edward Payson Powell

Every man should be born again on the first day of January.  Start with a fresh page.  Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past.  ~Henry Ward Beecher

For last year's words belong to last year's language And next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning. ~T.S. Eliot, "Little Gidding"

Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past.  Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go.  ~Brooks Atkinson

One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this:  To rise above the little things.  ~John Burroughs

We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched.  Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives... not looking for flaws, but for potential.  ~Ellen Goodman

*Quotes from the 'Quote Garden.'

So - may your new year be chock full of fullfilled potential and may your thoughts and gaze be always positive and non-judgemental.

P550

...I came across a Tumblr today that was called a photo a day 1/1/11 - 31/12/11 (or 12/31/11 for my pals across the pond) and I'm wondering if I can do an image a day...for a year!?

Maybe I'll start on the first and see how far I can get. Heh...anyone want to take a guess?
