You Capture – Get down low

June 24th, 2010

How low did you go?  Did you have fun?  I did …n’t.  Because I’m a PROCRASTINATOR.  or the times I had a good photo op, I was wearing Eli in a sling and I’m just not nimble enough for that type of body finangling.

So, last night I had one opportunity to take a shot before a massive storm hit (the 6,310th storm to hit in the past five days) and I did it but it was way underexposed and my white balance was off.  Fortunately, I sort of saved it through editing.

from the ground

I still love it, though.  The kids were walking into swim class.  Can you tell by their feet how excited they are?

That’s all I have, folks.

Now it’s your turn to share, just remember a few muy important things before linking up:

1.  Please do not search your photo archives for a fitting photo for You Capture.  The goal of You Capture is to get you out with your camera, so fresh photos only.

2.  Please use YOUR photos and not photos stolen from the internet.  That is just wrong and hey, it’s illegal, so there’s that.

3.  Please link up using the URL from your specific You Capture post, do not use your main blog URL.

4.  No purchase necessary.  Void where prohibited.  Winner need not be present.  That’s a bingo.

More on You Capture can be found here.

YouCapture_300x150

Your choice!  You can choose between the following three topics, but you can only choose one!

1.  Green

2.  Hands

3.  Chairs

Happy Capturing, friends!

{Yes, I know.  It’s a new linking system.  It was either that or no You Capture this week.}

    Beth, you probably already know this, but if you choose the other option on MckLinky, the link box will appear in the post and you won’t have to “click here to see the links” thing.

    Great shot – you got REALLY low. And no worries on the new link up for the week. Better than nothing, right?

    A warning that the linky form was going to start TALKING TO ME would’ve been nice. I almost choked on a Mento.
    I really love their feet and the way she’s swinging the bag. They DO seem so excited.

    The weather around here has been absolutely ridiculous as well :) I used to teach swim lessons and it was always nice when kids who actually wanted to be there were in my group- hope your kids are loving it!

    You’re right about not liking the LinkyTools as much. It’s more convoluted to use. I hope Mr. Linky is back and working next time!

    Fun shot heading into swim! I like the idea.

    And I am entered, my photos this week are less than stellar, but I like the feel of them more than anything else.
    I love the feet shot, so summery.

    You did get down low for that one and I love it! I’m not sure if I can tell by the picture how excited they are or if I just happen to know. I’ll say it’s the picture. You set such a great example!

    First time joining this challenge and it was fun! Since I only have my 3 month old here this week, it was easy, too. Can’t get much “lower” than a cute baby during tummy time! Look forward to more.

    Had fun with this one. Had taken a bunch of pictures in central London but deleted them accidentally. Oh, well…home picks worked too.

    I laid on my belly in the grass when I took my down low pic. I don’t think I’d want to do that in a parking lot, but you sure got close!

    The shot turned out well, even if you weren’t inspired this week. I enjoyed the theme once I finally got around to it, but I procrastinated a bit much too.

    I’m excited about next week. I’ve picked hands because I’m going to visit family and I figure that I’ll have lots of hands to shoot.

    And green is my favourite colour in the history of everything, so easy choice!
