Picture Perfect ~ Contrast







Welcome
to
Picture Perfect
the theme this week is
 
CONTRAST
 
I've been looking back at all our previous posts, themes..pictures..from wayy back when. This was Tint's first theme post on Multiply, and as we flit around trying to find our new homes, the contrasts of each become glaringly obvious, the unfamiliarity of our new places, the warmth and friendliness of acceptance and the unique ways we have ensured we all stay in touch, leave me humbled and grateful.
For me, the pleasure of Picture Perfect is seeing how each person adapts the theme and shows us a different perspective. We get to see the world through someone else's eyes and I treasure that.
Cameras vary dramatically, as does experience, but one thread that runs through all the blogs is that each one has an eye for beauty, a story behind a picture, fun shared...

Sunset (lighters)

I was fortunate enough to take a portfolio of pictures for 'Plastic Trash' Artist, Thom Lacie in Long Beach a few months ago..the contrast between what he finds on the beach and what he creates in his studio, is truly amazing!

"Picture Perfect is a random fun thing thing to do, no prizes no winners..just a little something to encourage us to see things a little differently and perhaps remind us to take our cameras with us!"

  10. I'm having a problem with this site.. I added what I thought was my URL site.. and guess what?? its wrong... wrong, wrong.. What am I doing wrong??? I'm so confused with this site. There are times.. a lot of times.. that I can't even get into my dashboard.. I have decided to go to You tube and get some help that way.. but.. so far have just watched 2 Tutorials.. which will come in handy when I finally figure this all out...

    I thought I was liking this site..I am.. and I'm not.. what a Love Hate Relationship I'm having right now..LOL...Got any ideas??? anyone???
