It's a black and white week this week, the photos are that bad, they need the help of monochrome!
271. Black Panther (We've really been sent a Hama beads set from Craft Merrily, and The Boy has asked to make all the different big cats there are. We decided to make a Black Panther and research them finding out loads of facts.)
272. Questionable Reading Material?(Lovely title, hey? It's actually the new Dr. Ranj magazine from CBeebies which The Boy had as a treat and loves it.)
273. Practise Makes Perfect (New spellings from school and The Boy was more busy practising his cursive handwriting, he didn't pay attention to the spellings. Luckily he had them all right.)
274. Swirly (I was lucky enough to attend a photography workshop in Cardiff, developing my understanding of night-time photography. Great fun with light photography and 'ghosting'.)
275. Cordon Bleu (The Boy had a playdate after school with a friend from his previous school. The boys get on really well, and were busy making mudpies galore.)
276. Red! (I'm sorry, but Christmas is coming! I went to a cheap shop to buy one thing and spent over Β£20 on Christmas bits and bobs.)
277. The Sunshine(A very boring week of monochrome and then there's this little boy who just lights up my heart.)

I love the contrast between the black and white photos and then your lovely boy shining in full colour.
Can I just say – damn Christmas! Seen so many people buying their first Christmas bits this week. My head will be firmly in the sand until the middle of November!

You can't beat a spot of mudpie making.

Mary @ Over 40 and a Mum to One says
Love the idea of the Hama beads and learning about animals. We've never used them, will have to put on Monkey's birthday list I think. Enjoyed looking at your nighttime photo class photos – all very clever
Susan Mann says
Great pictures and a lovely week. Love the swirly light x

Christmas is creeping into this project elsewhere – not impressed π Love the swirly shot – I'm in desperate need of some camera training – maybe a crash course at Dyrham??! π
Kirsty Hijacked By Twins says
That is a fantastic picture of the lights and I love the last picture of the Boy x

Loving the swirly photo effects, and the general black and white theme this week, offset by the gorgeous ray of sunshine at the end! #365
Jaime Oliver says
loving that ghosting effect! … yay to Christmas!!

I love that your wee boy lights up your heart that is a fab picture, bright and smiley. Great that he still meets up with a friend from the last school.
Like your swirly picture, and bah humbug to Christmas
Steph @MisplacedBrit says
Love your B&Ws this week, but the comment on day 277 is the best of it all …& what a STUNNING shot of the boy it is too <3
jenny paulin says
i adore the final photo – such a happy, cheery sunny photo and Jenson loves his monkey tee shirt. your hama bead panther looks good too x
Rachael says
I honestly don't think this is a bad set of pics at all. I love the one of the boy writing, such concentration on his face. But, that last picture is gorgeous. x
Angela Spicer says
We've been doing Christmas crafts this weekend, don't feel so bad now I have realised there are plenty of others thinking of Christmas as well.
CaroleHeidi says
I have said it before, and I doubtless will say it again, but your boy is beautiful!
Suzanne says
Really love your experimentation with colour this week and that last picture of the boy is gorgeous!
Sara (@mumturnedmom) says
The swirly light photo is fantastic. I like the black and white photos (I love B&W in general!) but that last shot of The Boy is just stunning!
Coombemill says
Love the sound of the photography workshop, lots of lovely photos of The Boy despite what you say!
geekmummy says
No! No Christmas stuff! No! No! No!
Leckie says
I can't believe Christmas stuff is already on sale! The last photo is so beautiful as are the words that accompany it <3
brinabird and son says
That's cool night photography! Your boy has a beautiful smile x
Notmyyearoff says
I never realised all the different shades of black and white and all the different effects they could give. Lovely photos and I love the swirly thing and the last very smiley colourful pic! π
Faded Seaside Mama says
The light painting effect is very clever. You have summed it up perfectly with the final shot too – the colour works so well against the monochrome background and makes him the focus – as he should be! Gorgeous smile that he has! x
Super Busy Mum says
Gorgeous selection of photos! I love the light play one, it brings back memories of my own light painting days!! #365
OneDad3Girls says
I have never been able to get those light swirls right they always look so effective.
Loving the final photo, he looks so happy and carefree
Emma T says
Love the swirly night shot. But that last picture of the boy is just wonderful.
Stacey Guilliatt (Nobody Said It Was Easy) says
Love the last photo! And the swirly one π
