What better way to finish than a photo of what this has been all about. I've finally run out of photos so this is it! .... for now at least :-)

I used this picture in the final contest and got a few comments about how people liked it. OK for a photo perhaps, but difinitely not ok for reality!

I especially like the combination of colours in this picture.

When I look at this picture it always makes me smile. The flower is actually a sticker and I have one on each of my filing cabinet drawers. Everytime I see them it reminds me that there's always something to be greatful for.

The toy library was a great source for my jelly bean pictures. I ended up coming home with all sorts of stuff. The teddies pictures above are just one example. I really like this one - the colours are really bright and cheerful.

Simply Jelly Beans

I really can't think of anything to say about today's entry!

Surprise!

Another image that came close to being included in my contest entry. Not sure how I would feel if I opened up my egg and found jelly beans inside.

I used this vase on more than one occassion. It's quite versatile. And of course, the orange background - that colour just goes so well with the blue.

Five!

This strikes me as a very fun image. Fun colours, fun subject.

Thanks heaps to those who continue to faithfully comment on my pictures especially Kim :-)

Macro

In case you are wondering, those little balls on the jelly bean are actually sprinkles (100s & 1000s). It's amazing what details get picked up when you shoot macro - details never noticed before.

A ladle of beans

Another pose I never ended up using. I don't usually, but this time I used by very basic Photoshop skills to change the background.

Almost....but not quite

This photo very nearly got included in my contest entry - I was very tempted but in the end decided it wasn't colourful enough.

It seems a shame to waste them

You might wonder why on earth I continue to take photos of blue jelly beans. The truth is, I'm not. Not anymore. It's just that I have some left over - ones I didn't use and it seems a shame to waste them so I've decided to put them on my blog.

I'm not sure who will see the photos. The 30 day challenge has finished so I don't expect any visitors but you never know, someone might pop by :-)

Today's photo is what I would call a jelly bean abstract. The jelly bean is sitting on a piece of glass which is about 2cm above a mirror. Hence the effect of the bottom bean being lighter than the top.
