68/365 (still in March!) 69/365; 70/365

day 68: 

Emerging

Saturday night, 

at the beginning of the March Break,

we slept in our quinzee.

Sunday's challenge was Emerging.

here's my family emerging from the quinzee sunday morning.

later that day my boy wanted me to take a photo of his animals emerging from their house.

day 69: 

Assymetrical.

my face is not symmetrical...that would make it Asymmetrical...see.

so it is actually symmetrical in that if you drew a line down the centre; 

it has the same things on each side...

but... in this photo my mouth is almost completely on one side.

day 70:

From Down Under

See where my challenge began : Here

aftermath of yesterday's snowday.

yesterday we had a snow day here in Muskoka.

buses were cancelled.  

roads were slippery.

people complained of winter coming back.

it felt like winter yesterday.

this morning we woke with the sun shining brightly, and glistening off the fresh snow.

haha, he blew a little too hard and it blew back in his face.

guess that's what happens when we are rushing it as the bus is pulling up.

this poor boat became frozen in the giant puddle that froze over. 

all the puddles froze with a beautiful frost over them.

look at those shadows!

but don't worry.

spring is here.  

even with the snowy day yesterday.

as i was walking to the house i spotted this beautiful lady.

i don't know where her nest is built or being built but she's almost ready to lay her eggs.

day 64: 

A Story in Three

i thought for a little while trying to figure out how to take a photo of this.  

3 photos to tell a story in some way?

then i began thinking about  what stories do i know that are in three clear parts.

written as one.

split into three books.

we have one amazing, classic story of adventure and courage.

i hadn't read it as a kid.

 i saw the first movie actually and after that i purchased and read the whole thing set 

within the next month or two.   

(including the Hobbit, but it's a story on it's own)

so here it is.

a story in three.

Monday March 3rd was the 62nd day of the challenge.

i took some photos this day.

the theme? you ask.

it was a Macro theme.

day 62:

Choose a Favorite

favorite?

hmmm.

something i could take in Macro.

my girl was having a bath, and i saw her little feet.

i had her put her feet up for me and took this photo of her little piggies.

i approached my boy for some assistance with this one.

we set up the tripod, removed the lens, reversed it and he took the following photos, 

with my help.

i had him pick a favorite piece of Lego.

he chose this blue diamond. 

from his museum set.

we had to have someone stealing the blue diamond.

*first photo taken by me.

2nd and 3rd taken by my boy (me as assistant)
