“minimalism: there are many definitions of minimalism but the most prevalent is bare mininum”
This week, the minimalist photograph, a single subject.
I had some others on various backgrounds, but I like how the colour and contrast are minimal here. This is a hint at what is to come for me in 2014. In addition to Focus on Life, I’m taking part in two year long online courses and a six month project that will get some extra focus this week. So 2014 isn’t feeling too minimal with these things in place on the first day of the year. I’ve got lots of time to tell you all about it and share another day. I think I have also settled on a word for 2014, I’m trying it on at the moment.
A great photo. I like how it is off center.
ReplyDeleteOK I'll bite... What is it? A piece of sponge?
ReplyDeleteOh yes, guess I left that out, it is indeed a piece of sea sponge
DeleteIt sounds like you have a full plate this year. Your photo should help ground you, It is lovely.
ReplyDeleteVery cool photo! Sounds like you've got a lot going on this year and I wish you much success in all your endeavors. As for your 'word' this year,...I'm having a heck of a time w/mine. It found me, and I'm seeing the challenge it's bringing! LOL!! Looking forward to hearing yours.
ReplyDeleteHaha, getting busy too? :) Love your sea sponge - and you're right, with the minimum contrast to the background it's perfect for the January focus. Best of luck with your new activities - and please share :)
ReplyDeleteMy word found me already... quite happy with it!
Aaah, I was not sure if it was sponge or coral. Sponge was first guess...
ReplyDeleteLovely
Love the warm colors!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great photo with the contrast! It's not a bad thing to know what you're going to be doing for the year. Best of luck with everything!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of the sponge with the minimal color contrast. The texture really captures the eye. Good choice, and a great start to the New Year.
ReplyDeleteYour photo shows beautiful warm color contrast and texture but is still is very minimal. Beautiful.

Your class sounds really exciting - can't wait to hear more. I love online classes but have never taken one longer than a semester. Great idea about the word for 2014.
