OF WATER DROPLETS AND REFLECTIONS: my first entry to my-own-but-open-to-public-photo-challenge – the “Photo-walk Fridays” – because why not?!

Posted on by

One Friday afternoon, I am inspired to take an early off from work, took my camera and went on a photo-walk around my neighbourhood. It has been awhile since I created an entry in my blog. Motherhood and a full-time job has kept me from being creative. For awhile, I have been just feeling exhausted and the greatest challenge is really on how to stay energised and motivated because when I am, I can do so much.

So like what I said in the title of this post above, this is my first entry to my-own-but-open-to-public-photo-challenge – the “Photo-walk Fridays“. Because, yes, why not!?! One can be bold and audacious and brave in life – because as what they say – we only live once and that we gotta do whatever makes up happy and this is my way of doing that.

So how does it work:

  1. On a Friday, go on a walk where ever your are and take a shot on anything that captures your eyes. You are free to use any camera you have – a camera phone or a professional one.
  2. You may or may not edit your photos.
  3. Write a blog post about this challenge and tag me and put a link of this post on your post. You can showcase as many photos as you like.
  4. You are free to nominate someone to participate this challenge if you like.
  5. Have fun and enjoy the journey!

With that, I hope to see you join me in this challenge. Let us keep on tapping on our creativity. Cheers and have a nice weekend!

And as to my entry finally, here they are……

“Concrete jungle reflection” The rain helped me on this photo-walk session. There were water all over that allowed me to took photos like above.
“The truth can be in the water – you just have to look deep into it.” – another reflection brought about by the rainwater remnants.
“Water delight” – my daughter would definitely love playing and jumping around in the water if she was around. “Mamas get your toddler’s “matschhose” (mad pants in German) ready!”
“Mensch (Men), ride all you want but safety first” – Rentable electronic e-scooters are scattered around the City and this is just one of them.
“Udlot” – this means leaflet in my dialect Bisaya (Philippines). I love taking subjects like this. There is just something about it that evokes freshness, newness, and hope. What do you think?
“There is beauty amidst the ugly and uneeded” – I do not know the name of this plant but shooting flowers will never fail you. I am not sure if this is one of those wild plants aka weeds that grew along the roadside. But it does not matter because she is pretty.

“The view from down below” – It took a different perspective to get this shot. I did enjoy taking this photo. Photo-walk sessions allows you really to do “trial and error” from various angles. It also a good practice for one to be patient and to think outside the box – to look and explore from beyond the normal point.

I think these are all my entries for now. Hope you guys enjoy it. And wish to see you join me on this creative journey through this challenge.

Lastly, I did explore the topic “photo Friday challenge” in the great-open-wide-space called “the internet” and below are my wonder-finds. Do check them out:
