zzzzzmission.jpg

Looking forward to next month's fun shots of whatever catches your eye and the accompanying stories.

For those of you needing some locations for possible shots, I am including some possible July opportunities.

July regulars include the county fair, fireworks, parade in place, family picnics or get-togethers and all that food stuff that goes with July. There are also the local lakes and boats, farmers markets, food trucks and the delightful water play at Switchyard park. The Glenn Close exhibit will continue until November. Then, the Tibetian Cultural center offers colorful photoshoots.

Events starting are Story Inn's music events, People's Park's concert series, and T. C. Steele has child tours going. Charlie Jessup will be Over Easy Sunday at Switchyard. Another is tapping into the walkabout radio plays by Cardinal Stage.

I, myself, am looking forward to the Annual Aluminum Pour kick off on the 17th and the 31st Fire Night Aluminum Pour. Sculpture Trails outdoor museum.

Until the 26th, "see it, shoot it, share it" Just play with it.

Bonus for squares and suckers (like the lollipop kind)/

Your mission, New Normal Members, should you decide to accept it, is to capture January Hygge moments. Hygge you ask?  Hygge [pronounced HEW-guh] is a Danish concept that encompasses the feeling of quiet comfort. Elements of hygge include plush textures, candles, warm beverages, hearty foods, nature, and casualness. The hygge feeling evokes a place of peace, safety and security. Hygge is really about feeling content and happy, celebrating coziness and turning it into a type of self-care. You can't buy happiness but you can buy cake.

Bonus points for textures and cakes.

 When your mission is completed, reduce photos to the longest side of 1400 and identify them with your name and order of presentation. For example mine would be: becca_01, becca_02. etc.

Your mission, New Normal Members, should you decide to accept it, is to capture November’s harvest and the blessings of the past year. It is a given that friends and family top the list; let’s omit them from this exercise.

What else appears on your gratitude list this past year?  (Things I consider include my home, car, pets, assorted crafts, wildlife, Amazon, drive by pick ups)

We have been blessed so much more than many others this year. Let us celebrate our blessings. 

Thanksgiving bonus points for photos starting with the letter….

N
O
V
E
M
B
(E)....double bonus baby!
R

Examples are: Netflix/neighbors, nuts, onions (very thankful for onions), orange pumpkins, oranges, vegetables, eggs, exercise tapes/equipment, masks, Makers Mark, magazines, bountiful food, boots, baths, bubbles, books, retirement, reading, roofs

 PS. It's a counseling thing that depression and gratitude can not occupy the same space at the same time. 

When your mission is completed, reduce photos to 1400 pp on the longest side and identify them with your name and order of presentation. For example, mine would be: becca_01, becca_02. etc.

  • Then send those reduced, labeled photos to becca.cambridge@gmail.com by noon on Monday, November 23rd. 

  • Joyce will be sending out the zoom URL closer to our meeting date.

Your mission, New Normal Members, should you decide to accept it, is to capture one or more toys. Raid the attic, basement, child or grandchild’s toy area. Be creative or request help from a kid. Have fun with it. Any type of photo will do. You can even submit different shots of the same toy or up to 8 shots of different toys, or anywhere in between. (If you don’t have a toy, you’re never too old to get one. Later it can be donated or given on a holiday to your favorite little one.) And don't forget dog toys! If you have a dog you probably have a bunch of those.

Bonus points for using a superhero.  Extra bonus points for capturing the toy battling Covid 19.
