Ooooh! I have just spotted that Helena has a linky, do call over and see what others have been zooming in and out on.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year 2014

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas filled with everything you hoped for?
I did, which is why I have been AWOL for ages.
I have spent zero hours on the computer/internet since my last post and need a few more days to get back into it. I just wanted to wish you all a Happy New Year, to thank you for your Christmas wishes and once again Thank You for taking part in my festive swap. I can’t tell you how lovely it is to see some decorations on my Christmas tree that have come from you. I’ll post some pictures soon.

I have been thinking about Helena’s new weekly meme Zoom In/Zoom Out or ZIZO as I’ve affectionately named it.

Here are my attempts for the first of January 2014 or ZIZO Week One

We have had some appalling weather here over the holiday and on the one lovely day I was out I didn’t have my long lens with me. I made the Zoom Out first and knew I would have to use my photo-editing programme to Zoom In on the black dog.
It wasn’t great so I made it look like a painting, it is just what I was thinking of as I made the picture though.

ZiZo Tree and dog

The second pair I made by walking towards the fallen tree and then walking backwards towards the precipice (not really) but it was so wet underfoot that I had to stop here.

Zoom out

Thank goodness the tree didn’t fall on the house!

I loved doing this and had I made a plan I would have taken my long lens but as it tuned out I had to work a bit harder. It’s going to be a really fun project.

Thanks Helena
