Feeling Stretched by helenhall

Feeling Stretched

It seems that picking up the odd challenge here and there, following a monthly theme , an annual theme and throwing in 52 self portraits is becoming too much for my befudled brain. I was deluded to think that I could manage it.

Do I mean deluded, - or was I deceiving myself? That's it, I was decieving myself to think that I could handle all of this. No longer do I take the camera out when I see something that catches my eye, and happily do my best to get a decent looking image. Oh no, I go around trying to remember if I am looking for a fallen fence which has been forsaken, or a self portrait in green, or was it a creative forsaken self portrait and a black and white deceptive scene. No black and white was last month. This month is rainbow, and how come all those lovely images I took of the snow seem not to contain any of the colours of the rainbow?

I seem to be falling at the first hurdle - wait a minute, I mean fence. 'Fall' and 'Fence' they were my words for the tag challenge. I better save that description for another day.

Anyone else confused? Much more of this and I will find myself quite isolated from the world around me.

Sorry folks, this is my best shot at the 52 portraits of me challenge for this
week. - Deception.

haha well your meanderings have given me great cheer :) i too feel bamboozled by the notion of now looking for colour when i've been on a black and white hunt all through february! and there's no green to be had when everywhere is white! i love your stretchy image and meanwhile i think it's surely incumbent on us to just keep on keeping on ... and seeing where we get to. i am more than delighted to be lucky enough to be sharing the journey with you :)

Cracking up at your narrative, then feeling badly that I did, but I suspect many of us can relate! Lovely work for the self-portrait. I'd never even consider such a challenge! I know I'd fail from the start.

I only saw the pic and moe that I’ve read your narrative I laugh :-) Yes, I can relate to it! And I might add: what a vibrant, cool and some what sneeky selfie. Lol.

Clever image Helen, I like how you tied this into the theme. Your write up made me smile too. I am more chilled out these days, what gets done gets done and what doesn't doesn't.

Chill.... ! It's your 365.. make your own rules and break them as often as you like! I like this, whatever challenge its part of and also if its not part of any!

@yrhenwr PS You'll well understand why I don't do many challenges... I barely register whats on offer.....its challenging enough without extra ones!

Ha ha ha I love the photo. And your description even more. Brilliant!

Cool image and I think you do a remarkable job with all your challenges, Helen! The only challenge I've attempted is "30 Days Wild" in June and that's only because most of my photos are nature-related. :-)

I like it.
March 3rd, 2018  
lol, fav
March 3rd, 2018

You've just given me a real laugh. I'll just stick to no challenges I think, much safer
