Dog Blog Post #448: Well today's Daily Shoot assignment didn't seem to hold much promise when I read it late last night...

Friday: Make a photograph that conveys or illustrates a sense of music.

... and I so I held my real Daily Shoot offering for the day so I would have something decent for the Blog Hop.

And then inspiration struck...

Henry even accepted the Evil Jingle Collar without comment...

As for yesterday's Daily Shoot, I still think it came out pretty cool...

Dogs' Life


Here's the description I put in flickr...

Daily Shoot (#ds669) - "Go old-school today and make a photograph that either features an old subject or simply looks old."

Was trying for something Norman Rockwell-ish. Admittedly, I didn't get there, but I got closer than I thought I would. :)

ODC - September 14, 2011 - Beginning

Norman Rockwell was a big supporter of the Boy Scouts, and created 54 covers for their magazine, Boys' Life, between 1913 and 1971. In fact, the editor of Boys' Life gave Rockwell his first job, that of illustrating stories in the magazine, marking the BEGINNING of Rockwell's very long career.

Scavenge Challenge September 2011 - "10) Add a frame to any new photo (your choice of subject) using post-processing tools."

Added a bit of sepia, vignette to the original and then used Picnik for the text and corners and borders and frame and yet more vignetting to try to give it an older poster look.


Note to self. Keep it simple. Upload pictures when taken!

Thursday: Go old-school today and make a photograph that either features an old subject or simply looks old.

... although it could have been. The picture down below wasn't it either, being just a goofy picture of a goofy golden...

To see it, you'll have to tune in for the Saturday Blog Hop (tonight's post.)

(Why? Mostly because the assignment for today (Friday) is terrible, and I want to have a good picture for the Hop!) :)

Yellow

Where's the Cookies?

Dog Blog Post #446: Arg!

Wednesday: Make a photograph that features the color yellow in some way or another.

Will the Daily Shoot stop with the colors? Yellow does the boys no glory, and just how many yellow things do they think we own???

In a fit of defiance, I penned the following...

Yellow Smiley

... and came close to using it, until I remembered the box of Cheerios.

A few cookies dropped in the bottom, the camera at the ready, and you have the picture up top.

(Who knows, a few "out takes" might well show up for Saturday's Blog Hop.)

I didn't use yesterday's Daily Shoot pictures for Wordless Wednesday, as I had the cookie pictures on standby, so here it is:

Tuesday: Make a photograph with a photograph. Find a cherished print and compose it in a larger scene.

What could be more cherished than pictures of Beau?
