Day 29 of 30 Day Photo Challenge

INVICTUS
a poem by
William Henley
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Day 29: Black and White

Day 24 of 30 Day Photo Challenge

In April I took a road trip with my Mom and my Aunt Laura from Salt Lake City Utah to Seattle Washington. On the way to Seattle we visited my Aunt's friends who own an organic farm  in Washington near Tacoma.  We had a lot of fun seeing the land and their animals. It was awesome to get to know my Aunt's friends who live what they believe, in hopes that others may also benefit.

This is their duck, Donald.


Day 24: Animal

Here are a few more images from the farm that are kinda neat...

Day 21 of 30 Day Photo Challenge

Last month I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC and saw the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty Exhibit. This exhibit was so fascinating that I was inspired... In the catalog they used models to display the fashion designs of McQueen, the unique aspect was that the models were made to look like mannequins mostly without heads or wearing masks.

Today my photography challenge was to create a faceless self- portrait.
So I thought I'd give it a go...

Bokeh:
 an adaptation from a Japanese word meaning blur.
In photography this term is used to describe the quality of the areas in the picture which are not in focus.
