Project 365: Day 10! In Which I Temporarily Switch Titling Systems

All right, check out this craziness!

New title system, perhaps for the next ten days? Perhaps forever? And this new crazy text off to the side thing! We'll see what happens.

So, this is a prime illustrator of "take a picture as soon as you find the camera so you have a picture for the day." I do like like Katie appearing distressed to be near Ben. She won't move, but she'll put her ears back. Good thinking.



This new system is harder to edit than I had hoped. Is it doomed? Maybe!

So this is a picture of my second artist trading card. It is not finished, and I'm hiding the left side of it with my hand so that if the person I'm giving it to is following this blog, there will still be some surprise to receiving it.

In other news, I love Faber-Castell PITT artist pens.



This photo I would have taken even without the Project 365 quota. This is a learning photo; I mostly see in it what I need to work on. The lens I was using was not appropriate to the shot. To fit all four tables in, I had to stand where the light no longer reflected with the quality that inspired me to take the shot. A few feet to the left, the light reflected off the tables in a strong gradient. In this shot you only see the lighting difference between the three tables and the lone table. I also did not notice the chair between the tables because I was concentrating on the table tops.
Whole picture awareness is one of my greatest weaknesses. I too often focus on getting specific elements where I want them, and totally ignore other elements. I did not see the dancing bear the first time. So, my best shot of this group doesn't have the gradient I want, and has a superfluous chair with a faux buttprint.
