AEzine Challenge: Photo Point of View

you're up early! just wanted to say good morning ...

i'm so glad to see that someone else gets up before 6am(And is on the computer).
also great to know that sometimes you don't get to the challenges either. it actually makes me more inspired to take a picture of mine and finally get it on there. it'll be on my blog soon.

Hello from Germany !
This was a great challenge, Ali, thank you so much for the inspiration !
I have a funny way of taking pictures, at least everybody thinks so, so I made it the topic of my layout.
You can see it here :

Didn't have time for the layout, but thanks for the thought-provoking questions. Here are my answers, with my fav pics towards the end: http://www.peacefulbend.com/kT/?p=80
THanks for the challenge!

One of the many reasons I adore you Ali - you are so real! thanks for being transparent and in that allowing us to remember "it is ok." here is what I came up with for my photo goal and process. tfl

I look forward to working on my weekly challenge and try to accomplish it on Thursday evenings while my hubby is at work.
Here is my layout--I had a lot of fun with the pictures, and the journalling has more to do with my history and family connections and photography--it's a hobby my brothers and I share, and we talk about it alot. I use four different cameras, and had a photo of all of them, but decided not to use it because I liked the repetition of the one image set up.
Ali, thanks again for the challenges; I enjoy having something like coffee for my creativity! :)

I'm not sure if I'm ready to do this layout in time, but I wanted to say that this newsletter on taking pictures was so good!!!! I loved it. I plan to read through it again and refine my strategy/system.

Loved this challenge and the layout it inspired!! I have wanted to document my obsession with taking so many pictures for a hile now!! Even though I'm still trying to work out my scanning issues, it is posted here...

I am new to scrapbook and 2 of the 4 pages I have done are all thanks to your wonderful inspiration and all the great gals that post their creations here...I have a lot to learn about tools and techniques....but I love to think and create, so here I am.
I also am in love with the idea of mini books- I seriously lost my way from the real world earlier this week making my 5 favourites.

Here is mine! Just think...if it wasn't for our cameras and photos...we would be scrapbooking a whole different way. Thanks Ali, once again!

Wow Ali! Another challenge that totally took me out of my shell. I am finding freedom within myself that I never really knew was there. Thank you!

Why do I take pictures the way I do? To remember. To capture just that little bit of time, to freeze it so my eyes can still see what my heart feels! I think about the pictures I took of my son doing his first homework (He's in Kindergarten). I was particularly frustrated with the system at the time. As I was taking those pictures I just wanted to remember that day, when he needed me to help him with his homework and read to him! You can see my original post here: http://shasteenfamily.blogspot.com/2006/09/homework.html
So many times I hear people say "It goes by so fast"...I just want to record what I can so when my children are gone I have something to look back on. They might not be the "perfect" pictures all the time but they are mine and they are of the things that I love.

Thanks for these challenges. Here's mine for this week:

Hey Ali,
Did the ABC course last night. Fantastic info.. Could not retrieve the ABC Color Ring though that you spoke of. You said we could go to "resourse" to download it. I could not find that anywhere. I can be inter-netly challenged though and it could have been staring me in the face... But I didn't see it. Please could you help me find it
Tanya.
