30 Day Photo Challenge.- Capturing moments




Hello!

I'm so happy to have you here.

I put together this 30-day photo challenge to help you capture everyday moments.
Beautiful moments, simple moments, silly moments, and just a few things in between.
I think that through this challenge you will grow to love taking pictures if you don't already!

Grab your camera, and let's get going!

“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.”
― Ansel Adams








Do you enjoy taking pictures? 
Is there a picture that you have taken that brings back so many memories?
I'd love to hear about it...

And now I'll leave you with just a few of my favorite photography quotes...

“For me, the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity.”
― Henri Cartier-Bresson

“A photograph can be an instant of life captured for eternity that will never cease looking back at you.”
― Brigitte Bardot

“Photography is a magical kind of art that allows people to preserve time and moments, and to describe the world the way they see it.”
― Sahara Sanders

    So often, we don't take the time to photograph ordinary everyday things. Taking the time to take these photos will definitely make us slow down and appreciate the small things in life.

      I love this challenge. I take pictures all the time, but the way you constructed this challenge, forces you to look beyond what you think is picture worthy into everyday ordinry beauty that surround us. Thank you for the reminder. Love the quotes! And yes, i love taking pictures, i call myself my family’s memory keeper. I create photo books and always sort out my pictures.

    This is a good challenge, with a nice mix of different components. I love how a lot of them are nature-related, which means that you'll be forced to spend loads of time outside.

    This is a great challenge! Honestly, I'm so happy that I started running an Instagram account for my blogs. It helped me to start taking more pictures and recording memories that are so important for me. My accounts aren't overly staged - they are very real and raw, which helps.

    I've done a blog writing challenge before, but never a photo challenge. It looks like a ton of fun! Thanks for sharing. I'll have to do this soon.

    I DO love taking pictures. I'm not a pro, but I don't think that matters. I love that quote you shared by Ansel Adams--that's exactly what I think, too. :) What a nice challenge--a great opportunity to focus on the little things and see if you can create something interesting from it! Thank you for sharing this post at the Will Blog for Comments #28 linkup! Hope to see you next week, too.

    I really enjoy taking pictures but have gotten away from using my "real" camera and want to make sure to get back to using it more often.

DIY Tea Tin Planter for Sweet Mint

Today’s tiny DIY win: turning an empty lemon‑ginger tea tin into a planter for a sweet mint plant that needed some love. I cleaned the tin, added drainage, and nestled the mint inside. It instantly brightened up the space — the colors on the tin and the fresh green leaves look so sweet together. I love giving everyday items a second life, especially when they end up this cute. Quick Video Tutorial  I began this little project by cleaning out an empty metal tea container that I had saved. It still held a soft scent of lemon and ginger, and I loved the idea of giving it a second life. Once I washed and dried it, the container felt ready for a new purpose.   Next, I used a finishing nail and a hammer to create a few drainage holes in the bottom of the tin. Since metal containers don’t have natural drainage, this step helps keep the roots healthy and prevents the soil from becoming soggy. Having prepared the container, I carefully removed the sweet mint from its original pot. The ...

Colorful Summer Flower: Recycled Paper Towel DIY

  Looking to bring a little sunshine into your space without visiting the craft store? This whimsical summer flower decoration makes great use of what you already have—think beads, pom poms, a humble paper towel tube, and a splash of acrylic paint. Bonus: it’s the perfect way to reuse an old frame and welcome summer in style! What You’ll Need: 1 paper towel tube (emptied, of course!) Acrylic paint (I chose a deeper pink) Craft pom poms (yellow makes a great center!) Assorted beads (medium for the stem, smaller for embellishing the petals) Foam letters (for your summer message) A reused frame (square or any shape of your choice) Scissors Hot glue gun Creating your summer flower decoration Cut the Tube and Shape the Petals :  Start by cutting the paper towel tube into four evenly-sized sections.
