This morning I finally tied up the other mirror and turned the mirrorworld into a triangle. This created some nice borders to attempt some light icicles. New Poems Today is Open Link Night at dVerse Poets Pub. I think I’ll start exploring Rest, Sleep, and Hibernation as a poetry prompt for the Changing Focus DecemberContinue reading “Making Icicles”

Cheery Christmas Spirits
I knew today’s photo challenge “cheer” was going to be tough. My cold is holding on tight and I spent the night coughing and shivering, but I was determined. So I made no-bake healthy oatmeal cookies to eat like Santa all day, and put on a Christmas record. Just as “Rudolph’s Christmas Party” started toContinue reading “Cheery Christmas Spirits”
#SoCS: Rev Up My Stream of Consciousness
For today’s images, I tried three ideas. First, I created a holly filter with my new filter design that goes over the lens guard. Then I tried grouping my red and green lights on the multi-color strand with twist-ties. Then I put some plastic santas and snowmen on my white lights and made some HollyContinue reading “#SoCS: Rev Up My Stream of Consciousness”
Wreaths of Light
For today’s images I tried something new. I thought I could just loop my lights in a circle and make bokeh wreaths, but that didn’t work. Then I remembered a metal loop a friend had given me with the idea of framing my fabric glass. I wrapped the lights around the metal loop, and itContinue reading “Wreaths of Light”
Playing in the Snow I Created
Today I tried something new. I used clear plastic to create a new filter with some glue and glitter. Using the fisheye lens, my world became a snow globe. Using it as a bokeh filter, I created snowballs with light. Then I tried throwing them. New Poems Though the drafting part of the Chapbook ChallengeContinue reading “Playing in the Snow I Created”
December Daily #Prompts, Challenges, and Plans
I am enjoying how my photography is progressing. Like October’s daily photos, November’s daily photos built on each other, creating all sorts of happy accidents and new ideas. So I’ve created another calendar of daily one word prompts for December, starting with Lights, of course, because I’m excited to go play with some purple inContinue reading “December Daily #Prompts, Challenges, and Plans”

#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 29: The Next Slant
This morning the sun came out and did my work for me. Mr. Kitty is known in the biz to be an uncooperative model, but he didn’t know today’s theme was slant. It’s a good day to reread Tell all the truth but tell it slant by Emily Dickinson. November PAD Chapbook Challenge Today’s promptContinue reading “#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 29: The Next Slant”
#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 28: Reclaiming My Time
For today’s images, I crumpled up the photos that I tore up for my visual poetry and let them reclaim the light in the mirror world. I love the way the lights reflect off the crumpled glossy photo paper. November PAD Chapbook Challenge Today’s prompt is to write a slow down poem. To Reclaim MyContinue reading “#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 28: Reclaiming My Time”
#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 27: Burn to Memory
I have been wanting to play with candles in my mirror world, so inspired by today’s prompt “burn,” I thought I would give it a try. November PAD Chapbook Challenge Today’s prompt is to write a remix poem. It’ll be a fun day of looking back over the poems I’ve written this month and findingContinue reading “#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 27: Burn to Memory”
