This week we were encouraged to point our cameras at something familiar and turn it into something else. To seek out the abstract. To fulfill my mission I took the camera out around The Homestead, because there’s a whole lot of delightful springy things going on out there.
I’ll leave it to you to tell me what this is:

Welcome to Tales from the Upper Left! I’m an Oregonian by birth, and a Washingtonian (upper left...get it?) by choice. I share my life with a husband named Jonathan and a cat named Colby Jack (he’s orange...like cheese). I dabble in photography (passionate hobbyist), hike when the opportunity arises, drink wine whenever the mood strikes me and travel not often enough. Predictable Washington blog? Nah. I promise!

yes…some kind of fern. And, confession, I didn’t originally choose black and white. After it showed up on my FB feed my sister-in-law (a photographer as well) commented that it might pop in black and white. I don’t tend to think of black and white…or when it’s best applied. Something else to add to the list of things to learn!

I don’t gravitate to black and white either. The form of it seems to pop with the b&w though

She also suggested playing with the contrast and clarity…I’ve just not gotten around to it, yet. Going to the Caribbean soon…can’t wait to catch that color!!
