The Big Photo Challenge...Creative

The Big Photo Challenge



This Big Photo Challenge is Creative or post processed - an opportunity to show off editing skills.

My grandsons and I have played with Blue Screen technology. It's like the weather man on TV where you shoot a subject with a blue poly tarp behind it and then superimpose it on other pictures. They called this one Ghost Riders.

The Big Photo Challenge...Food

The Big Photo Challenge


This week's photo challenge is FOOD

I went to the local grocery store for this picture.



Peppers always make a good picture with their bright festive colors of varying hues. I liked the way the light was brighter on the yellow peppers and gradually dimmed as it flowed toward the orange and red peppers. The hardest part was to get a picture in a crowded store with customers slowly picking over the peppers. I tried to neatly stack the peppers at first but gave up on that idea and just grabbed a shot when the aisle cleared with my handy-dandy Nikon S210 pocket camera.
