13/365 Round

#DS402: Make a photograph of a circular or round object today.

12/365 Round
Edited using the Filterstorm app. No flash used, just the halogen lights in my kitchen. Would have been nice if the shadow is just on one side. I enjoyed eating my subject today though! Lol!

9-12/365 Uggghhh! Backlog!!

I know I had been M.I.A. and I apologize. I was not feeling well for a few days. But I still managed to do my assignments, just was not able to upload it on time. :) By the way, it's past 2am now. So these photos were either just edited in Photoshop Express (on the iPad) or high noise jpegs straight out of my camera (SOOC).

Dec 18 - DS#398: Shoot wide open today. Make a creative photo that uses a shallow depth of field to good effect.

8/365 Paper Boats
It is not easy to have a child on school break and be stuck at home sick. I'm sure all of you parents out there know that. Constantly, I had to think of ways to keep my child entertained while I struggled to even stay sitting up. And THIS is how I kept her preoccupied for most of the day :)

Dec 19 - #DS399: Illustrate one of the meanings of the the word warmth today in a photograph.
9/365 Oven-Cooked Bibingka
The next day, I managed to get up and bake some "Americanized Bibingka" (or what my daughter calls "cheese cupcake"). Once cooked, my daughter and I grabbed a plateful, ran to the couch, tucked ourselves under our throws and watched a Xmas movie. (Dont tell me. I know I should have just taken a picture of us in the livingroom. Just too tired (and sick, remember?) to set up my camera and tripod.

Dec 20 - DS#400: Make a photo of a hallway or passage and post it today.

10/365 Hallway
I am surprised I don't see footprints on this floor.

Dec 21 - DS#401: It's the solstice. Make a photo that captures the day for you wherever you are.
11/365 The Heart of our Home
This was where I spent most of my day --- baking and cooking. It's what I do to make up to my family for being so unproductive the past few days. I made some roasted chicken and home-made mac & cheese for dinner, 2 pans of 7-layer brownies (to give as Christmas present), and my birthday girl's giant and regular-sized cupcakes. (At a time like this, I sure wish I have a real island!) And no, we're not having a party tomorrow. We're actually just gonna out to take Alyssa to her first big-screen movie. I just really enjoy cooking... a lot! Just wait til we have a party... ;)
