I mentioned on Friday that this month’s NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) “Photo” theme includes daily inspirational photo prompts. Fun, huh? Always up for a new creative challenge, I thought I’d jump on board and take a shot at doing all of them… and so far, so good!
Starting with Friday’s selfie, the photo prompts have all been about me, me, me. Today’s MicroblogMondays post seemed like a good space to share the shots I’ve taken so far, along with a bit of an explanation for each.
Hope you enjoy!
May 2 – Your Passion
Whether it’s writing or tangling or taking and editing a million photos with my iPhone, my passion truly is creating. I get such a thrill of satisfaction with both the process and the end result when my brain and hands work together to craft a unique and tangible expression of what I see and think.
May 3 – Your Feelings
The lovely (and fluffy!) Oscar stood in for me as an expression of my feelings at the time – a sense of peace and calm on a beautiful, warm Spring evening.
May 4 – Your Energy
My energy comes from connecting with people in a meaningful way. It doesn’t necessarily have to be through deep, heartfelt talks – sometimes having a whole lot of social fun together is meaningful! – but when it comes right down to it, I’m never more energized than when I’ve spent quality time in the company of others.
How would you express your passion, feelings, or energy?

I have to go look at this month’s NaBloPoMo, Laurel. I’d love a photo-related theme! I love your “feelings” photo – it is perfect! As to how I’d express myself – I must think! 🙂

Love your thoughts and your photos! I just looked at what NaBloPoMo’s theme is for May before reading your post, since I missed out on doing last month’s theme. I want to do this one on a different blog – just have to decide and then catch up!

Sounds like a good plan! I’m having fun with the theme – hope you enjoy as well!

What an awesome photo challenge. I love creating as well.. but I think my passion is making others feel JOY through my singing or inspirational writings. Yeah… it took me a minute to really articulate that.. but I think that’s it. 🙂 Making a spectacle of myself in order to make others feel heaven if even for a moment.
And I think this ties into my energy which is sunshine. 🙂 Feels good to see oneself. Thanks for the moment of self reflection.

My feelings currently would be an ice cream bar because I’m eating them… Which probably isn’t the best thing to do.
My passion would be a sound — clicking of the keyboard?

Oh dear. Here’s to the renovations being over soon (though ice cream bars ARE rather delicious)!

I love your passion of creating with accompanying picture Laurel. I would say for myself, expression and creativity are very important to me and my passions are enfolded within them. 😉 Your interpretation of feelings objectified by Oscar is cute and well, I can be very expressive emotionally as I feel deeply – my eyes and facial expressions exude them well! 😉 And for energy, well opposite to you, I am a true introvert that re-energizes by having some quiet time for myself during the day! 😉 <3
