Exclamation April Photo Assignment: Water

Thanks to TaterTot for the assignment idea.

A big thank you to all of you that have been participating in these assignments. This has certainly been fun for me, and I am inspired by seeing how many different ways a simple subject can be interpreted.

This was an experiment for my gallery show which opens on Friday. It's a wine glass full of water, and I used a syringe to squirt water straight down into the glass.


And with that, I leave it open for your imaginations!

Water. THIS I have all around me here at the Beach. However...Here is a Lion Holding Some Water.


Does that work?

Another shot from my camera phone. I need a real camera. My wife says with it blurry, it looks like the lion is moving...

this is an old photo from a trip to Hawaii, but i love how the water and the clouds look like they're all going into the sunrise.


I was going to take a closeup of water drops or something but..decided to take a day at the beach...love living in NC.

thanks..this one's from a few weeks ago on a visit to the acquarium with my nephew.



my next one will be one that i actually took this month. i read the poll thread about using old photos vs treating it as a new assignment...so i'll try something new on my next post.

Once I get my beetle, there should be a beetle gathering there! The photos are actually further down at Fort Fischer...easier to find parking down there. The 1st one is the very end of Fort Fischer down by the ferry to Southport. 2nd is at the station at FF where you can drive on the beach.

i took a little bike ride around the lake today after work...here's what i saw:









I did see a perfect picture opportunity but didn't take the photo and now i'm kicking myself. Since the assignment is water, i saw a bunch of ducks sitting in a grassy area. It was more of a scene you'd see with them in the water. So I was going to take it and use it for "water" because it's the one thing that was missing from the photo.
