Photo of the Week #16

This week marks 4 months for Photo of the Week! Thank you to ALL the participants that have joined in. I've probably said it before, but I am amazed at how well this feature has taken off in such a short amount of time. Nearly every week I've had new people joining in this creative challenge. I love that new people are joining in, but I especially love that people keep coming back week after week. I hope that all of you are finding the ability to keep your creativity awake by pushing yourself to do a little something each week.

Thanks again to everyone that participated this week - I'd be a shameless self-promoter without all of you to keep me company!

If you are a POE or Polaroid team member on Etsy, and you'd like to join in Photo of the Week on my blog I'd love to have you along! Just read this post for the guidelines on submissions. The deadline is each Tuesday at 11:59pm Pacific Time. If you forget, there is always a current deadline along with a handy Pacific time zone clock in the side bar at the top of the blog.

Have fun shooting!

Exploring the Ordinary #9

Well, it seems I left this project until the last minute as well! Then maybe it's appropriate that I chose a pencil as the subject - I was always a huge procrastinator in school when it came to writing papers! Surprising how it took me so long to realize I wanted to be a visual artist...

Be sure to let me know which is your favorite by casting a vote at the end.

Photo of the Week #15

I tell you, this is one of those weeks that if it weren't for the deadline I wouldn't have gotten this photo done! Even though I've been doing this for almost 4 months now, I still can lose track of time on this ongoing project. So, I dedicate this Photo of the Week to my fellow procrastinators (I know I'm in good company!).
