A room with a view...

Last week I saw a challenge that made me think:
Here is your challenge for next week. Since it’s the first week, it’s going to be very, very simple. All I want you to do is pick up your camera and take a picture of something that you love. It can be a rock or your kitchen sink or your child’s toes, just capture it. Oh and since it’s supposed to be a challenge, try to do it WITHOUT your flash…
So, here it is:

I love the view from the guest room. I replaced the flowers in the box this weekend and was happy with the outcome. The blue between the flowers is clothes drying on the line...another thing that makes me smile. It doesn't take much!

This was my first time playing with the manual focus and different angles with my simple point and shoot camera. I'm learning.

Oh that's lovely. You sure know how to treat your guests! We had new snow covering everything when we woke up this morning, so I'm envious that you've got bright flowers out your window! You Capture is going to be such fun isn’t it? Head on over sometime soon to “Two Under Two. Whew!” for my super-fun-and-little-bit-silly giveaways! You could win a collection from Tiny Two’s Baby Animals line, or some chocolate covered pretzels! See you around the blogosphere!

I'm totally jealous that you live somewhere warm. I'm thinking maybe I should come and visit. :)

Great shot!
