Weekly Word Challenge

>

Uh huh. Look what I did. I got the badge, yo. Which hopefully makes up for the fact that the pictures are crap.

Words this week were bokeh and
heart.


>

Bokeh or lens flare? Your call.



>

I believe this may, possibly be close to the definition of bokeh, also known as secular lights. I shot this in manual, and it's not a big black square, so bokeh or not, I'm hyped!




This young lady, who has an upside down heart shaped trunk opening (I'm reaching, I know), looks like she's getting ready to share some juicy gossip to someone on her other side.

Other random photos:


This is my favorite from the circus this weekend. Even with the huge, giant head in the frame.



I shot these next two in aperture priority mode so I could have the blur of the scarves. I like how you can tell that the second one is spinning down.






Thanks for stopping by. I may actually have pics that apply to the theme next week!

The theme is just a jumping off point. We all just like to check out each others photos, themed or not.
I love the circus photos. Great job.

Love the blossoms and the heart in the trunk. Yes, she is sharing gossip ;) Great photos of the scarves.

I know nothing about picture taking. I'm all about point and shoot. I'm lame.

That second one is definitely bokeh. Well done! I especially like the twirling woman. You caught the action/blur beautifully. :)
