I must say I found this a real challenge and it forced me to think outside the box... I had many creative ideas that just didn't look right when I set them up to take photos or I wasn't happy with the final product!
I took MAGIC to be literal as well as things that make me go wow, or just amazing things in general.
I hope you enjoy these.
Photo 1 - January 1st, 12:10am
My first ever attempt at long exposure shots and I thought I'd take 'magic' in it's most literal sense and write the word and see how it came out! :) after a few takes, I was pretty happy with the end result!
Photo 2 - Magic reminded me of the joining of rings! This is my engagement ring, it is a Russian wedding ring, or rolling ring, three rings that are completely separate of eachother but joined.... magically! Not to mention that the way it was received was quite a magical moment in my life!
Photo 3 - The most magical thing of all for me was seeing my best friends first born son. I captured this moment and loved everything about it, the lighting, the feet and the magical quality it holds for me.

The babies feet are so cute, love the perspective and depth of field on them. I thought about the writing magic with a sparkler too, but didn't think I could pull that 1 off.
ReplyDeleteWow love the sparkler pic! I never thought of that! It is definitely something I want to try one day.
ReplyDeleteCool sparkler lights! and baby feet are so cute :-)
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos Meagan :) The sparkler shot is very magical! and I'm still puzzling over how you wear those rings, lol.
ReplyDeleteOooooh nice long exposure - really must try that. Love all 3 of your interpretations :)
ReplyDeleteThe first photo turned out brilliantly! I love the personal nature of the second two photos and how special they are to you. :-)
