Sunday Share: FMS PAD #4 + Weekly Recap

Isn't it crazy to think that we are already nearing the end of January and heading into February! Boy, time sure does fly when you are having fun, and I do hope you are having fun - enjoying the Summer holidays! (or keeping warm if you are on the other side of the world). 

Next week is going to be a big week for us, as we start getting back into our "Back to School" routines - Miss B is in her last year of Primary School (wow!) and I am returning to work in a couple of weeks (double wow!) (I found out this week that I will be working on Tuesdays) . Master M will be having a few visits with his new carer (Home-based) leading up to my first day of work eek! I will be meeting with the staff (including the teacher that I will be releasing) on Friday, which is perfect because we will get the chance to plan ahead for the term/year. I am starting to get a little excited about returning to the classroom - I love having structure to my day & being organised. #makeithappen

Anyway, back to Sunday Share: FMS PAD #4...If you have just joined my little blogging community {WELCOME} please check out my previous Sunday Share posts here:  Week 1, Week 2, Week 3.

Week 4 has been a lot of fun...did you play along this week?...My favourite prompt would have to be today - Day 25: Black and white. I absolutely love, love, love taking and checking out Black and White photos #blackandwhite #blackandwhitechallenge. Chantelle from Fat Mum Slim did a post earlier this week - Photography Lesson Tips - Mastering Black & White Photography. *A must see*. 

So without further ado, here are my photos from Week 4 - I continue to love and use my Canon EOS DSLR camera to take my PAD photos.

Day 20 - Window

Day 21 - In a row

Sunday Share: FMS PAD #1

As I mentioned a couple of days ago in this post, FMS Photo a Day prompts are now being announced weekly, so I have decided to create a new segment on my blog - 

{Sunday Share}: FMS PAD

My previous posts for FMS Photo a Day September, October, November & December included a collage of my photos for the month and now that the prompts are given weekly - I want to share my photos - one for each day of the week, (except Week 1, it only has four days) on my blog. You can see the prompt list  for Week 1 here. 

I love taking photos so this month I am only using my Canon EOS camera. There is so much to learn about photography, however I am really enjoying the practice. Bron at Maxabella Loves has some great tips on photography for beginners - Check it out!

Here is my {Sunday Share}: FMS PAD #1

Day 1. The Sky

Day 2. Something Yellow

Day 3. Me today (Master M's first time at the beach) 

Day 4. I hear...

What do you think? Come and join in the fun!

FMS Photo a Day - December

This completes my fourth month of taking part in Fat Mum Slim's Photo a Day Challenge. I absolutely love it and I have to admit - I'm a little addicted now! 

Here is my collage for the last month of 2014 - December. I had my little friend Santa Bear help me out with my photos this month. It made it a lot more fun by adding a bit of a Christmas spirit to each photo - he travelled around everywhere with me. 

I am really excited about taking part this year (2015) as now the prompts are given weekly (instead of monthly)...and I plan to use my new Canon EOS for my photos this month! I have even inspired (and encouraged) some of my friends to participate this year too. I can't wait to see their amazing photos (and YOURS).

WANT TO PLAY ALONG???

Here is {Week 1} prompts by @FatMumSlim . Click on the pic below for more details on how to play.

I have completed my second month of #fmsphotoaday challenge with the fantastic Fat Mum Slim.

I had so much fun doing the Kiwiana month - that I have decided to continue to participate in the #fmsphotoaday challenge for this month NOVEMBER.

...I have chosen to dedicate this month to my two beautiful children #kidstheme, so my photos will have something to do with either Miss B, Master M or both :)
