I Heart Faces {A Touch of Whimsy}

This weeks challenge over at I heart Faces is 'a touch of whimsy'.

Whimsy? I know the word, I even use it, but I thought to myself, what does it actually mean?

whim·sy/ˈ(h)wimzē/Noun
1. Playfully quaint or fanciful behaviour or humour.

and how can I show it with my image?

Well, hopefully the image below will answer that question. It is of my very good friend Joyce otherwise known as Joycey.

I took this photo of her at her 80th Birthday party and love the sparkle in her eyes, the cheeky smile and of course, the tiara - a bit of fanciful behaviour AND humour from her. As. Usual.

 Head on over to I heart Faces and check out some of the most amazing whimsical images!

I Heart Faces {Bright & Vivid}

Bright and Vivid is the theme this week over at I Heart Faces. I used to shoot a lot of bright images, not so much now that it is Winter here in Melbourne, Australia so I looked through my hard drive. Here is one of my favourite images - it is of my son out the front of a Beach Box right near where we live - this one is on a little bay called Half Moon Bay. 

Fortuitously, there was this matching, broken wave ski right next to the box. Cool eh?

Pop on over to I Heart Faces for many more Bright & Vivid images (which are making me feel all wistful for summer!)

Thanks for stopping by!

I Heart Faces {From a Distance}

I Heart Faces time! And this week, we don't actually have to show a face! As long as the image has a person in it that's all that counts and the theme is 'from a distance'. 

I chose this image that I took with my Lensbaby 3G because I just adore the composition. The boy, sitting on the top of the hill, waiting for .... who knows?

Check out all of the many 'From a distance' images over at i Heart faces. Don't forget to leave comments on as many as possible - we all love it!
