Day Ten: “Architecture” — Go Monochrome

From the geometry of skyscrapers to the ironwork on historical buildings, there are many opportunities to capture the beauty and complexity of architecture.

“The world is in color, you have to work at black and white.” – Andrew Maclean

Old School

The old house, quite charismatic
Standing tall, very melodramatic
It comes with a complete attic
All painted, in monochromatic
But still very enigmatic

Cloud Building

Is it a mirage?
A clever camouflage?
What ever the cause
You can only applause

Day Nine: “A Pop of Color” — Incorporate Color

The colors in our photographs are evocative and rouse emotions within us. Color can elevate a mundane image into something beautiful and intriguing, and can tell a tale within the frame.

Warning Sign

The harsh winter painted in white
Some say, the nature did it out of spite
But those who dare to venture
Into the great white open nature
Heed the coloured warning
Or else, your life may be storming

Green Shutters

In a distant land
A white house stands
Some say quite simple
But it has a unique dimple
One window with shutters
Painted, with the colour of green
The passersby may stutter
But I say, it’s the prettiest one I’ve seen

Day Eight: “Treasure” — Zoom In

Objects, places, people, moments — we all cherish something or someone. Anything deeply meaningful to you can be a treasure. A treasure can be grand, like a precious heirloom, or teeny-tiny, like the first plump blackberry of spring atop a tart.

“There Be Treasure in Them Thar Caves!”

Treasure (WP Developing Your Eye I)

I have to save it
Before it vanishes
A temporary pleasure
Drawn on the curve side
The image printed to my mind
But quickly, an apparatus need I find
To save the memory in time
Before this treasure
Will be lost, forever

Developing Your Eye, Day Four_ “Bliss”

* What is your idea of bliss? Is it an image of your family, laughing at the dinner table? A state of total relaxation, while lying on the beach? Your latest painting, drying on the canvas

“Coffee: The finest organic suspension ever devised”

Another cup of Coffee? (WP: Developing Your Eye I)

“Dear, another cup of coffee for you?”

“Oh yes please,
I could never refuse
Such an offer!”
