New Theme - Give-away

As you may have read in my last post, Camera Club competitions happen throughout the school year. "Motion" was last month's theme, and it was a lot of fun looking for potential images. This month, however, is leaving me a bit mystified.

"Transportation" is the theme, and it's wide open. We have a lot of aviation photographs, which club members will anticipate us entering. We also have a lot of boating photographs, which may garner one or two for us to choose from. However, we want something different.

Unique. Show-stopper, would be nice.


Please leave us some suggestions for potential images we should take for this competition. If we choose your ideas we will be glad to send each winner a copy of the entered image. There could be a lot of winners, as we enter three themed images each. We need to shoot soon, so the window for this give-away is small.

Please post suggestions by Friday, March 11. Yes, that's right. Only a little over a week away. Let's hear how creative, and helpful, you can be!

Thank you!

Like Georgia B., I'm a sucker for bicycles, in motion (like racing -- probably not the best time of year for that), in pieces or cute and charming.

I think brightly colored feet could be fun, too -- running or walking. Classic cars. Sailboats (or otherwise), hot air balloons. At this time of year, skis will get you where you want to go...

And thanks for stopping by the Marmelade Gypsy!

100 Blessings

It's funny how a project takes on a life of its own. I started out making a list of things I'd like to take pictures of - piles of M&M's, rocks on the beach, license plates hanging on an old garage door. Then I decided it would be interesting to find 100 items about "me," celebrating my 100th post with items about me/my life/etc. This way I could tie my compulsion to blog in to my theme. So, I started THAT list. And when I was done I decided all the things I was collecting, ideas as well as items, were actually blessings. Things about my life that make me who I am and allow me to keep striving to be the best I can be at what I do. Each activity isn't necessarily a blessing, it's my ability to do the things I love to do, and be with the people I love to be with. This became an introspective activity, and that's probably where I am in my life right now. If the shoe fits..., so to speak. So, welcome to my 100th Post ! Without everyone I've met thr...

Hidden Gem

Thank you, Georgia , for helping me focus on the hidden gem, the place we love to go and not be found. Not far from home...it IS home. We call it "out back," and once there we are transported to a private place, not visible from houses or road or the casual observer. I couldn't choose just one photo, so I created a collage of this special part of our world. Enjoy.

Restoration in the Works!

  The Ammi Wright House.  Built 1888.         Our town has some pretty remarkable older homes and businesses.  Many have already been restored and are residences and/or businesses.   We went to a meeting the other night which focused on how to go about restoring a beautiful old lumber Barron's home - the Ammi Wright house, just off the main street. It has been empty for a great many years and needs a lot of work to bring it back to life.  But this group of people can do it.   The building itself is already purchased as part of an agreement with the Gratiot Area Historical Society.  Located in a nearby town, they have purchased it and Alma will be part of this system.  We are now forming committees for all the areas which need to be addressed, including historical research, fundraising, publicity, etc.  Lots of work, and lots of interest.  There is a steering committee in place, and we all signed up for an area we feel...
