OYAT 2 by olivetreeann

OYAT 2

I'm still laid up with my torn meniscus so I won't be running about with my camera all too soon. What to do for pictures? I came up with this idea that I'd go back one year, see what I took on those days and then choose another shot to process and post. Well, the idea was good, but apparently last November I wasn't out and about that often either! I decided to stick with the One Year Ago Today theme (OYAT) as much as possible and when I don't have a shot for the day, take one from another day last November instead.

One year ago today, I wasn't out taking pictures but this one was filed on November third. I'm not sure what it is, or even why I took it! But I did like the swooping feel of whatever it is! So this is basically sooc, but I also had some fun playing around with it!

The results are here:

That's a good way to get through the immobile period. Sounds miserable - do what they say and hopefully you'll heal soon. This made an interesting white abstract.

Lovely texture, and feeling

I like it. Well done.

Lovely texture , hope you are up about soon

Interesting abstract Ann. Goodness knows what it is.

A great idea to go back over photos that didn't get an airing previously while you are laid up

So delicate - nice idea to see where you were at a year ago! Hope you recover soon

Sorry to hear that you laid up, it's no fun being immobile. Hopefully your recovery will be swift and smooth.
I really like the abstract nature of this, clean and simple.

This is a beautiful abstract and would be a great entry for the abstract challenge which is up and running again :)
Just add the tag: abstract-13

Hope you are feeling better soon

Woooo this is fabulous!!!

Could it be whipped frosting or cream! It’s beautiful and serene!
November 3rd, 2018  
What a great idea - I might use that if I may as I sometimes can't get out due to work but can go back and look at what I took and play around with a new technique.
November 3rd, 2018  
Great idea Ann. I pray you recover soon and are back up and around soon. This shot reminds me of a bowl of whipped cream
November 3rd, 2018  
Cool shot and a great idea. I hope you feel better soon, Ann.

It is really pretty even though we don't know what it is. I guess this is a true abstract.
November 3rd, 2018  
You came up with a great idea. I love both pictures but there's more life to the edited version in 2018.
Being ill is no fun and I hope you get better very soon.
I finished all my medication and two days later my sore throat returned. it's chronic by now. whenever it's windy outside (and it seems to be all the time) I get a sore throat. I can't dress warm enough even inside. you see, my feeling cold comes from inside my body, not only because I've to take a blood thinner every day, and of course having lost so much weight over the years. I used to be a 16, down to 14 and so on. now I'm a down to an 8. unfortunately, I can't seem to gain any of it back.

This is pretty!
November 3rd, 2018  
What ever it is I like it
November 3rd, 2018  
The gentle curve is lovely.
November 3rd, 2018  
Stunting minimal. Fav.
November 3rd, 2018  
This is lovely!
November 3rd, 2018  
Beautiful!

@4rky I added the tag for you but I'm not sure if you have a time/date limitation on this. Although it's posted for 2018, it was actually taken last year.

@milaniet @lindasees @haskar @Dawn @golftragic @onewing @lyndamcg @salza @4rky @ruthmouch @louannwarren @mandygravil @bkbinthecity @mittens @henrir @bruni @kwind @grammyn @randystreat @pyrrhula @slash @kjarn

Wow- thanks for all the positive feedback and favs plus all the get well wishes. I am in week #5 of staying off of this thing but I don't feel like I've made any progress. So we'll see- lots more rest, lots more anti-inflammation treatments and lots more playing in the archives to go...

Reminds me of a satin wedding dress.

@wendyfrost Thank you Wendy!
November 4th, 2018  
It's a nice soothing abstract!
November 4th, 2018  
I really like this Ann. I have no idea how you did it but it makes a beautiful image in white :)
Congratulations on making the shortlist!
Good luck with the voting

@robz Thank you Rob!
@4rky Thank you 4rky and thank you for choosing this for the vote- I'm truly honored as the entries there are all excellent and quite beautiful. Honestly, I do not know what I did either because I don't know what it is, or why I took it! My only possible thought was that I was intentionally moving the camera in order to get the swooping feel of this, but I had no idea what that white stuff is. Thanks again for selecting it!
