Week 14, our Favorite Varieties.
Friday, April 06, 2012 | By: Daphne Ellenburg
Variety often poses many questions. Is it the truly the spice of life? or Is it the source of endless questions and confusion? Well...I'd say it's a healthy combination of the two. Variety in choices make life exciting - and new questions lead to new discoveries and exciting challenges. Like that new great software that you're trying to master, that new fantastic lens that seems like it can do everything or the mysteries of Studio Lighting. This week's photography went out and found some great creative sources of variety.
This week's top ten is in no particular order. The photographer links are below the photograph. If you like the photo - check out the links and leave them some love. With the great variety in cameras, software and processing - photography is tough work...remember, everyone could use a little encouraging pat on the back - so get out there and share some love.
Here we go...

What's new with Daphne this week?
Madison and I attended the Festival of Flowers...where we saw the largest flower carpet recorded in North America.
I got to see my photo with a giant red ribbon. I beamed the entire day like a small child.
April Fool's day got really out of hand...this is the inside of my microwave. I almost dropped my breakfast. Not cool.
Grant had another wonderful week of Baseball {any week with baseball is a wonderful week}
I made an amazing Saturday breakfast. {the force starts on the inside} - thank you William Sonoma.
And yesterday, Mike and I got to watch our new baby dance.
As I watched Him dance, I couldn't help but get a little misty at the tiny miracle God has blessed our family with.
Three boys and a girl...oh the adventures we're going to have.
Wishing you and your family an Easter Holiday filled with the Love of Family & Friends and joy of Photography...and lots and lots of chocolate. Mmmmmmm.
XoXoXo, Daphne

So, What is EP Project-52?
We're a group for Photography Enthusiast and Professionals all teaching and learning through each other by photographing to a theme each week. We post our photos to our Flickr group each week by Thursday Midnight and start a new theme each Friday. Each Friday we spotlight 10 photographers and tell why they are featured. Our focus is on education (the how tos) and encouragement (don't be afraid to try something new). I'll bet there is something you'd like to learn. And...I'll bet there is something you can teach us. Check out the group, we're 66 strong this week! It's free to join and the friendships you'll make are priceless. Join us today!
