Think Back Thursday ~ Out of Focus


The purpose of Think Back Thursday is to link up a photo post about something from the past. You can reach back all the way to your childhood and bravely post pictures of you in your wild clothes and hair styles or post something from last year and tell us about it. I'm not picky. Hey, even yesterday was the past... LOL

Sorry about being late getting this up... I almost forgot completely. I lost track of time. This week is going to fast. During dinner I asked someone what day it was and then went, "Oh, NO!" after dinner I got to work quick. I had not picked out all the photos I wanted to use either so I just picked the first ones I saw.

I will be doing this theme again since I have lots of thesehttp://zaazu.com

Today's Theme
Out of Focus

I will only be commenting on a few of these.
Some of the pictures I took multiples of and did get a good shot in one of them.
But, some of them I never did get a clear, in focus picture, that always annoys me. 
Sometimes I can't really tell until I get home.
I love my camera.
I have learned to take pretty good pictures with it, considering it is a point and shoot camera.
My daughter Jessica complains about my camera and likes to use our digital SLR camera, and I do to once in a while, but I was glad to get my camera back from her after her trip to Texas.










I took a bunch of pictures of these flowers. I was trying to get the one pointing at me in the center into focus... my camera kept focusing on other flowers further back.










Focused on all the little buds around the edge when I wanted the open flower in the middle in focus... I finally did get a good one though.




This was just the other day.
I think this was blurry partly because my camera was set on the wrong feature and partly because I didn't hold the camera still.

 Future Themes:
11/15 Entry/Doorway/Enter
11/22 Thanksgiving
previous years or preparations for this year
11/29 You/Yourself/Self-Portrait
a photo of you, taken by you or by someone else
a recent photo or one from days gone by

Here are the Rules for participating:
  • It can be about you, about your kids, about your parents, whomever. You can include video, I will not exclude video alone posts, but I prefer them along with photos, as this is a photo meme. I am doing a weekly theme now. That should help narrow it down from the myriad of photos we all have. For ideas check out the other posts in my label Think Back Thursday. 
  • Link up below. Please use a permalink that sends readers directly to the correct post. If you are not sure what that is click the word permalink for an explanation. 
  • Mention my blog and offer a link back. This is a requirement to take part and a kind gesture to me your hostess as well as your readers--they will know where to join in the fun, too. You can put the Think Back Thursday button on your site and in your post. You will find it on my right sidebar. Please use it to link to my site, to spread the word about my meme. Using the button will help others know how to find me and how to join. Tell others to click on the button in your post to find us here.
  • Leave me a comment. First so that you can let me know what you think of my pictures and secondly so that I will know a new post has been linked up and I can come visit your blog and comment on your photos. 
Join me!

  1. Hey Debbie - This is my first week blogging and I came upon your Thursday meme and loved the theme. I love thinking back to different times throughout my life. I also thought it would be a great way to give my reader incite into who i am.
    Thank you
    Renee

  2. I think even your out-of-focus pictures are pretty!

    I wondered if we were skipping this week when I didn't see the post on Thursday. LOL But I got mine up today - glad you left the linky open!
