294/365 - Jim - Colorblind Test

( f/11 35mm 1/125 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )

Can you read the hidden message? If not, you may be color blind. I set these Skittles down and lined them all up into a rectangle and shot from above with two softboxes. You can comment the message if you can see it.

071/365 - Jim - Watercolor

( f/14 105mm 1/200 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )

Theme is food coloring. I have seen this before from other photographers and wanted to give it a try. I figured I would use red and green to keep in the Christmas spirit. The lighting was setup the same as my tea photo. I filled the glass with water to the top and dropped the food coloring in. It is that simple. I added the vignette and adjusted the colors and clarity in Lightroom.

005/265 - Matt - Mt. Dew Bottles

( f/5.6 55mm 1/60 sec ISO 800 Nikon D40 )

The theme today was color... so I wanted to take a picture of something very colorful. Last year Mountain Dew came out with 4 limited edition bottles and I bought them. Well, apparently a lot of people bought the bottles and Mountain Dew keeps releasing more. I have a total of 18 bottles and this is my favorite one. It has a lot of colors and crazy images going on throughout the bottle.

005/365 - Jim - Decisions

( f/8 62mm 1/200 sec ISO 100 Nikon D300 )

Theme is color. I painted my son Jameson's room yesterday and wanted to have a picture of the roller applying the paint, but that was yesterday and this is today. So instead I grabbed the paint sample booklet. It took a while for us to decide what color to paint the room, which is why I titled this entry Decisions. My mother and I applied a second coat this morning and it is complete. Oh and we decided on a pewter green tint color...
