As I travel the world I take many photos that pique my interest, these could be lumped into a "peculiar category" ie. they are peculiar to my interests and may be different from what one usually sees in a collection of travel photos.
For the
Blogging from A to Z April Challenge in 2025 my theme is
Peculiar Pics. During April
I invite you to join me for an online tour of
Peculiar Pics from my digital albums. These will be sourced from my travels between April 2024 to March 2025.
There was a professional photographer on board one of our recent cruises who gave a series of lectures on creating better pictures. I was one of his eager students who took particular notice of his advice to Zoom In and take more closeup images.
I now find myself with a gallery of these "in-your-face" images.

ReplyDeleteThe toes are my favorite "in your face" photo. :-) Congratulations on a great challenge.
ReplyDeleteI've really enjoyed your photos - makes me realize I need to take a lot more (and really LOOK at things around me). Congrats on making it to the letter "Z".
