Words To Shoot By: Turquoise... The Outtakes

Dave and I both participate in the Words To Shoot By project. Every other week we are given a word and instructed to take three photographs of our interpretation of that word. This week's word was "turquoise." My photos are on the top and Dave's are below. Lots of times we end up with photos that don't quite make the cut. Out of focus shots, photos that don't completely go together, bad lighting, images that you look at the next day and think "really, what was I thinking?" Below are the outtakes from this week's Words To Shoot By.

My shots, taken with a Pentax k1000 with Ektar 100 film:

    I love them. I love them so much! It's my favorite color... You have beautiful hands, Whitney. Is that your aqua car? I could so see you in that car...

    Thanks Mia! I get my long Swedish fingers from my dad.

    The turquoise Mini Cooper is sadly not mine. I do actually drive a Mini though - a newer silver one I named Agent Cooper after Twin Peaks :) The Mini in the photos is three blocks from my old apartment and I refer to it as my car's "dad." Nerd secret: revealed.

    Love these "outakes" as you adorably refer to them :)

    Question: Your cool looking gold zig zag ring, WOW! Can I get some info on that? :)

    Hayley - My friend Kelly brought the zig zag ring (which is silver) back from Mexico as a gift when we were high school. It's at least 12 years old and I've worn it so much it's cracked all the way through on the bottom. The other more detailed ring was my grandmothers.
