Catching up with my postings at the Daily Photo Game.  Have a look to see the whole collection at http://DailyPhotoGame.com

I was thinking as my turn approached  I would shake it up a little.  I was thinking of doing “opposites” and I did make some images that included orange, bird food and dry feeling subjects.

They were good, but one in particular would have made some people uneasy, so I was still thinking of new images.

I play racquetball nearly everyday, today is no exception.  Upon leaving, it occurred to me, “my” blues were the game ball and my blue car.  The racquet and tape guard just give it a little texture.

There is one other blue not shown, and that would be the black and blue bruise when that little blue ball contacts you at speed. None today!

My July 13, 2103 contribution to the Daily Photo Game.  Check out the whole body of work at http://DailyPhotoGame.com

I  watched an interview the other day and it talked about process and how some people, good smart people get too wrapped up in their process.

So this time, I decided to alter my process.  I looked at Bob’s shot of El Pico, The Beak and with that in mind I went out to explore and discover.  Originally, I planned on going to a yard I am familiar, that is overgrown with cacti and many other exotic plants.  I never got there, it became far to interesting along the way.

The process described in that interview went something like this.  You have this idea in your head and then move to accomplish the idea with an open mind and what come out the other side is amazing.

I found what represents “the” Alien Egg to me or where it might have come from. (think the movie Alien)
