One Subject, 30 Shots - Week 5

Sorry folks, I'm a few days late posting the last few days of April's One Subject, 30 Shots challenge.  No complaints must mean nobody noticed, at least (heavy sigh).

So, over at 365project, there's a new challenge going on for the month of April.  Specifically:  pick a subject, any subject, so long as it is something you will have access to every day during the month of April... and every day, think of a new and different way to take a picture of that subject.
I decided to do the oak tree(s) in my back yard.  It's close (with the whole "stay at home" thing), it is in transition (with spring)...  and I like trees.

We're in the home stretch now, only 4 days left.  Still hanging in there.  Anyway, the last 3 Sundays I've posted the previous week's entries, here's the fourth!

This has been an interesting experience, and I rather like several of the photos.  A couple are "blah", but all in all, I;m happy.  And it was a fun experience, and successful in knocking me out of a photo-doldrums I'd been in for a while.  Over at 365project, the 30 shots received "Popular" designations 11 times  and Trending 2 times.  That's pretty much normal for "Popular", but probably 1/2 what I'd expect for "Trending".  That's life, I suppose.

I'm actually rather pleased with at least 1/2 of the week, but it continues to get more challenging...    Only one made "Popular" and no "Trending".  But I don't mind (much)...

I'm pretty please with most of the week, but it is getting a little more challenging...  I actually dug out my old Nikon D3200, for the 60mm Macro lens.  I've generally been dissatisfied with my macro efforts, but I'm happy with these two.  I had 3 make "Popular" and 1 make "Trending".  Can't complain.

Overall, I don't hate this past week.  I certainly like it better than the 1st week.  Three of thses made it to the Popular page, and one of those to the Trending.  So that's always cool.

Well, I've been in a bit of a creative lull, so I figured to push myself into this one.  I decided to do the oak tree in my back yard.  It's close (with the whole "stay at home" thing), it is in transition (with spring)...  and I like trees.

We'll see if I can manage to take 30 different photos while maintaining a degree of interest.  Anyway, here's my 1st 5 photos (click the title for the full size version)

I'm already thinking 30 shots might be a bit of a challenge...  16-20 should be fine, but 30??  All of my 30-Shots images can be seen here.
