Alphabet Photography Project

The Alphabet Project | G is for gargantuan

Welcome to the Alphabet Photography Project and letter G! Thank you to everyone that joined in last week.

This photograph was taken at Whipsnade Zoo during their Elephantastic weekend. This remarkable weekend-long celebration of these majestic creatures marked the world-wide Elephant Appreciation Weekend, raising money for international science and conservation charity ZSL’s Asian elephant conservation and research projects.

The Alphabet Project | F is for Frensham

Welcome to the Alphabet Photography Project and letter F! Thank you to everyone that joined in last week.

Having spent a bit of time exploring Northern France recently, something French would be the obvious choice this week. I thought I’d select an image from closer to home through – the wonderful Frensham Little Pond. Managed by the National Trust, it’s a beautiful spot and even has its own little beach!

The Alphabet Project | E is for euphoric

Welcome to the fourth week of the Alphabet Photography Project and letter E! Thank you to everyone that joined in last week.

These photographs of POD were taken in the garden when we were reviewing some pieces from the new Mamas & Papas Liberty range. Little did we know how entertaining she’d find me pretending to tickle her while she was on the swing. Even just the act of following her general direction kept her amused. I just love moments like this and having a permanent memory makes them that little bit better.

The Alphabet Project | D is for daydreaming

Welcome to the fourth week of the Alphabet Photography Project and letter D! Thank you to everyone that joined in last week.

This photograph was taken when we were at Whipsnade Zoo a few weeks ago. We stopped for a time to admire the fabulous views which were pretty special on such a clear day. Just before we left to see the giraffes, POD took it upon herself to stand on a nearby bench to take it all in. I would have loved to have known what she was thinking about. One thing was for sure, she was miles away!

The Alphabet Project | C is for Cervione

Welcome to the third week of the Alphabet Photography Project and letter C! Thank you to everyone that joined in last week.

There seems to be a bit of a travel theme going on after Boulogne for letter B. This photograph was taken a couple of months back when we were in Corsica. The historic Cervione is a little known village with wooden shutters, cobbled streets and quirky cafes. One of the first things we saw when we got out of the taxi from the nearby Mark Warner resort was this little house in a hill. The views they have must be absolutely magnificent as their patio faces seaward. Just beautiful.

The Alphabet Project | B is for Boulogne

Welcome to the second week of the Alphabet Photography Project and letter B. Thank you to everyone that joined in with letter A. I must say it’s so nice to have this project back again, despite being crazy busy I really did miss it.

This photograph of the Notre Dame in Boulogne was taken on a recent visit to the old town which is just beautiful. It formed part of a trip to Northern France and we found some absolute gems along the way. Our first stop was Cap Blanc Nez on the Opal Coast where we discovered bomb craters from World War II, a huge obelisk which commemorates the Dover Patrol and a lake that houses three enormous concrete bunkers.

The Alphabet Project | A is for amusing

Wahay the Alphabet Photography Project is back for series 3!!! I don’t know about you but I’ve really missed thinking of ways to challenge myself every week. Not just with each letter but the photograph that accompanies it.

There were so many options for letter A but this photograph seemed especially apt with POD starting school. She’s on her second full day so we’re hopeful she might actually sleep before 10pm! This photograph was taken at her nursery/pre-school graduation ceremony. It was a lovely thing for the staff to organise especially as POD joined them when she was a year old. This was the moment she discovered blowing her scroll sounded a bit like a ‘boom boom’. I leave you to work that one out!

The Alphabet Project is back!

Well I have to admit I’ve really missed the Alphabet Photography Project these past weeks. But it’s back in TWO WEEKS – kicking off series three on Wednesday 23rd September!

It’s really easy to join in, all you have to do is link up a post with a photograph the represents that week’s letter. It’s entirely up to you as to how you interpret the theme – whether an object, an adjective or a representation of that letter. Hints are on the Alphabet Photography Project page (just click on each letter) and there’s also a Pinterest page full of photographic inspiration.

You can use a photograph from any time and you don’t have to join in every week if you don’t want to. The Linky will be live every Wednesday (until the following Tuesday) from 23rd September starting with letter A right through to Z.

Time to get the brain in gear for letter A!

The Alphabet Project | Z is for zanyism

Oh my goodness I can’t believe we’ve reached letter Z already! I don’t know about you but this series of the Alphabet Photography Project seems to have flown past so quickly! Thank you to everyone that’s joined in, the interpretation of the theme and variation in photographs has been wonderful.

In a quest to avoid zoos and zebras, this week I’ve opted for zanyism. There was a lot of buffoonery when we were away last week but this photograph of POD pretending to hide does make me laugh. I had a better image of her larking around at breakfast but it was taken on my mobile so not great quality. She was making some hilarious moves with her hands on her face. One of the waitresses even came over to check she was alright!

I’m aiming for the next Alphabet Photography Project to kick off in September once the children are back at school. Hard to believe POD starts this year, we haven’t quite got our heads around it yet! She’s currently 8th on the waiting list for the local school so there is a glimmer of hope she might get in although it seems unlikely.

How to join in #alphabetphoto 

To join in with the Alphabet Photography Project, all you need to do is link up a post with a photograph that represents the letter Z.

The Alphabet Project | Y is for Yaverland

Hello everyone and welcome to letter Y of the Alphabet Photography Project. Thank you so much to those of you that joined in with letter X last week – it’s ever easy!

The Alphabet Photography Project seems to have flown by this time around, I can’t believe we’ve almost reached letter Z. We’ll be back in September after the school term has begun though. Let me know what dates work for you all and if you’re up for a challenge! POD will be starting reception although her first full day isn’t until the 22nd.

This photograph was taken on a recent trip to the Isle of Wight. We spent over 2 hours on Yaverland Beach after visiting the zoo. POD has the time of her life playing with a bucket and spade. I love how the simple things in life are often the best.
