Thanks for all the Creative pics sent in. I have to say that the last one submitted "Takes the cupcake!" Hope Kryptonite brings one home for moi!
The February theme of Texture can be anything that has texture. (I think that's probably everything!) So I hope it will not be too difficult.
I tried to incorporate some new and interesting themes to vote on for March. Don't forget, if you have any suggestions in that area, please let me know.
Looking forward to February.
In search of creative growth, this blog was designed to encourage the personal betterment of those who enjoy photography as a hobby. Each month's new theme can encourage us to see the world in a different way. We all view things differently. The diversity we enjoy can fuel the creative spirit. It is hoped that we can all glean something from one another.
Frabjous - (frab-juhs) - adjective
Defined as wonderful, superb, elegant or delicious. Coined by Lewis Carroll in Through the Looking Glass; perhaps meant to suggest fabulous or joyous. Do we not feel wonderful or joyous about something we ourselves have created? Hopefully this blog will encourage us to create something frabjous!
Here is how it works. Each month will have a new theme to stimulate creative thinking. We invite people to make suggestions for upcoming themes. The month prior, you can vote for the theme you would like out of four listed. The rules are simple. No rules really. The idea is to get us to think and be mindful of the theme for the month. Take photos that relate to that theme. (However, if you have a really great shot that was taken at another time, use it.) No photo police here. Any camera will do. Even phones with cameras are pretty good these days and they are always handy. Also, if a filter or cropping enhances your photo, go for it. The digital age has given us flexibility that we should take advantage of. One to five photos can be submitted for the blog. Interpretation is up to each individual. We welcome comments.
Theme suggestions and photos can be submitted to frabjousphoto@optonline.net. Submissions must be made no later than the last day of each month. Photos will be posted as received throughout the month. Happy snapping!

Creative Closet Cleaning!
Here is a project in progress. Haven't quite finished it. It was a fun way to clean out my husband's closet. I turned some of his dress shirts into a skirt for myself!

Creative Editing
This is a picture of a chateau in France. The subject is awesome, but the photo is just o.k.
With a little bit of photo editing on my iPhone, I was able to get rid of the ugly chain across the driveway, make the sky a little more dramatic, and age the photo. I think the picture is now much more interesting.

Creative??
Ok, so is it creative enough that I had to chase this guy out of the grass so I could get enough contrast to take a picture of him? He ended up climbing a palm tree for the perfect photo op. I could also say this is a wonderful expression of Jehovah's creativity.....I mean, how cool is this guy?

Jehovah's Creativity!
Of course, Jehovah is the creator of every beautiful thing, but I happen to know that Raven is pretty creative too. These leaves were ironed between to pieces of wax paper. They have held up beautifully through the years and make a beautiful window covering. --- Sparrow.
