286 - Let's get hitched!

Dim Sum hops on the cart which bounces a little. Then she settles down to groom her fur.


I think this is among my most favorite in the entire 365 project. It almost looks like a painting. Sometimes, these happy accidents surprise me. :)

The "Botanical - Posed Wooden Cart (Tuscany)" was created by Kriss Lehmann (Botanical).

285 - Red guard, green gate

Dim Sum ignores the frantic robin's attempts to shoo her away; she nonchalantly moves even closer.


More play with light and shadow. I had a bit of a difficulty getting a good balance here.

By the way, the windlight in all four images in this week's series originated from the same predefined windlight setting, but I changed it slightly, so it's getting lighter and lighter.

The "Northern Cardinal male" was created by Mosley Sperber (.:SHD:.).
The "Cylinder.002" gate was created by Amelie Knelstrom (Vespertine).

284 - Do trees curtsey?

Dim Sum narrows her eyes as the rising sun's light slips through the leaves.


I actually thought of naming this "Nothing in particular". :) But, hey, there's beauty in the negative spaces too. In this case, it's the negative space created by the bend of the tree trunk.

The "HPMD* Garden Tree07 - snowy b" was created by Sasaya Kayo (HPMD).

283 - Let the snow swing

Dim Sum's eyes are wide alert as the night snow fall quietly, making the swing's metallic creak more audible than ever.


I love that the windlight created something like a big flare. It adds interest to the picture. This is a bit out of my usual because the backlighting flattens everything. But it gets better in the next three pictures! :D

The "tarte. bench swing (light)" was created by alixxbella (tarte.).
