Sometimes simpler is so, so much better. The images truly speak for themselves this week.

Week 47 ~ lines, lines, everywhere lines!
On Thursday, October 15th at the moment of 1:51 p.m. we stopped what we were doing and looked for lines. Lines are all around us, forming patterns rich and interesting. From different perspectives we found lines looking down from the sky, looking up at the sky, hidden in text, memories of birthdays, and covering our friends and loved ones. We chose to not take the world around us at face value and look for intrinsic patterns within the surfaces and shapes around us.
Below are our findings...

Week 45 ~ reflections
A reflection of an exact image is the closest thing to you-so that you can see it-but it's far enough away so that you really understand it. There is real life in this movie, but it hovers just an inch above reality.
~ Wes Bentley
Reflected images can be found in so many places... mirrors (naturally), water, door knobs, iPods, windows.... Already we have seen some amazing and creative uses of this theme coincide with some of our past themes, so we were curious to see what would happen if we all took a picture of a reflection for the same Moment?
Some of us chose to include ourselves in a reflected image...
Others found refelected objects and abstracts...

Week 43 – Macro - Thursday, September 17th at 6:03 p.m.
.
.
Technically macro photography is quite simple and straightforward.
For those who have a profound love for it, it is everything that is
beautiful in the world and too often goes unnoticed. The world that
exists in the texture of a dog’s fur, or the microcosm of a dew drop, or
in the pattern of wood grain be infinitely fascinating. In these small
worlds we might find something we are looking for in the larger one.
Maybe that something is “self”, or understanding, or metaphor, or just
a minuteness that might be a bit easier to comprehend and embrace.
Whatever the draw, whatever the profession, it is the artist’s eye (or ear
or taste buds) that seeks it out.
