Is being “normal” — whatever that means to you — a good thing, or a bad thing? Neither?
Photographers, artists, poets: show us EVERYDAY.
Each person is unique. They all have a set pattern to their life. This is an everyday occurrence and what is known as a “Normal Routine”. My “Normal Routine” is different that a family that has a baby, or several children to get to school, or a Professional Couple who travel to work each day.
Here are some words from Dr. Seuss:
Here are what other Daily Prompt Writer’s have to say:
Sixteen days on the road is a long trip. Since I had planned for this to be a cross country trip in a way, to last at least 30 days that would put us at our road marker of the midpoint.
My grander scheme was to do this for a year. I am not certain if I have the steam to do that. Time will tell. Can I make it interesting and vibrant enough to keep readers attention and drive to want to come back each day to see where it has gone or will they fade from boredom?
My first stop is a blog site that is new to me and I have enjoyed the wonderful photography:
Next stop is a shout out to someone who wrote a poem to his wife as a gift for their anniversary:
http://ivonprefontaine.com/2013/05/22/marriage/ I felt compelled to mention that as the Daily Prompt today was about “Jealousy” and there is obviously nothing like that going on in their strong relationship.
Lost in the Details. This challenge is about getting lost in the details. Once you’ve found a subject you want to photograph, challenge yourself to work a little further into the scene. Here, I use a landscape as an example, but this approach can be applied to other types of photography.
Landscape view of Elbow Falls. Photo courtesy of Christopher Martin.
These two photographs are of Elbow Falls in Kananaskis Country in the Rocky Mountains, west of Calgary, Alberta. The draw of this location is the waterfall, and often, people are satisfied with the landscape view (shown on the right). But Elbow Falls is a place where there are many opportunities for great photographs beyond the obvious — you just have to push yourself to find them.
On one visit, I walked along the river’s edge above the falls, searching for details. As I observed the dark water, an arch of ice, only a couple of feet wide, caught my eye. The ribbons of colors and the textures in the ice were beautiful, and I enjoyed zooming in on this small landscape (above).
Working into a scene allows me to leave with a photograph that I really like. So, I challenge you to go out and spend extra time getting lost in the details — and finding a great shot.
SHARE A PHOTO THAT MEANS LOSTS IN THE DETAILS TO YOU!
Tip: Get low. In photographing details in a landscape, lower the camera close to the ground to see its impact on the composition. Whether you are using a digital SLR, a compact camera, or the camera on your phone, getting low changes the way elements relate to each other. In the image of the ice and the river, I sat down so the lens was close to level with the arch of blue ice. From a higher angle, the ice looked smaller in relation to the water; by changing my position, I was able to balance those two primary parts in a way I preferred.
Move the camera around to see how a scene changes. Get low, or reach higher for that matter, and bring out the details that are often hiding in plain sight.
Here are four views of the same object yet they are all different.

”Water is so necessary for a growing child and such an important part of the growth of nature. The two together brought this picture to mind of my grand daughter while on a trip.”
