piktripper themes : CIRCLES!!!!


HERE is a selection of some of the GREAT "circles" that were taken last week - this was our 2nd week of this type project and we were SO happy to see the participation!!!  each time someone would 'post' a "circle" to facebook, it would INSPIRE me to go shoot something RIGHT THEN!!!!
take a look at the pix we choose to showcase on our blog.















































looking forward to continued participation - most of these pictures posted (to facebook) were taken with just iphones and manipulated with cool iphone apps - MOST apps are free!!!!   

Shadowplay has been a really cool theme -> keep watching for next weeks post on how creative everyone got with light and shadow!!!!!

in the meantime - KEEP SNAPPING!!!!!!

piktrippers weekly theme : GREEN.

we started a collaborative concept in the middle of march called "weekly theme".  it is designed to keep us all "clicking", "snapping" and being creative between pik tripper monthly adventures.

the entire collection can be found on pik tripper's facebook page, TONS of great pix were posted - but the ones eligible are the ones actually shot during the week of the specific theme.  here are some "showcased" images that we wanted to share in our blog. 


enjoy.

biggest group so far.

march pik tripper has been our biggest group so far!!!!
17 VERY talented people arrived in weatherford texas on march 6, 2010.













our initial group shot before lunch.













we enjoyed a GREAT lunch at the downtown cafe in the heart of weatherford.













pik tripper was established in june of 2009, with only 4 people, and has grown in size everytime we meet.  our creative group is all about PEOPLE...exchanging ideas : gaining knowledge.

here is how our creative group saw weatherford texas that day in march.
