Share Six Blog Circle – March 2019 | Food

09-Ceri-Herd-Photography-Boy-with-Lays-Packet-Smile-Kiss

March is Nutrition Month so Share Six is celebrating all things {food}!

National Nutrition Month is an educational campaign focusing on the significance of physical fitness as well as eating nourishing meals. Taking charge of your health contributes to overall well-being; as well as losing weight or staying at your ideal weight, which reduces risks of chronic illness such as heart disease and diabetes.

The great thing about this theme is that you can interpret it in so many different ways: still life and layflat, lifestyle or documentary. Oh I would love to have an image of a farmer ploughing his fields at sunset…but I don’t, haha!

I have to admit I hoped we would be settled into our new house by now so I’d have a chance to experiment with layflat set ups for the very first time, but alas it was not to be. The time for that will come soon enough (fingers crossed *knocks on wood*) so instead I’m sharing some images from last year that haven’t previously seen the light of day (and one that has because I love it/him/the memories and the taste of the cider doughnuts that come with seeing it).

Thank you for joining me into the new year and for another month at Share Six! You can share your images for Nutrition Month using #NationalNutritionMonth.

Share Six Blog Circle – February 2019 | Paper Heart & Red

Ceri-Herd-Photography-Paper-Heart-Project-2

** February is Heart Month **

This month Share Six has joined forces with The Paper Heart Project to spread awareness for congenital heart defects, and we’re incorporating two themes for you to interpret as you wish: {red} and {heart}.

One out of a hundred children are born with a CHD. There are many different types of CHDs and children can suffer from one defect or multiple defects. The severity of the defect can range from mild, meaning a child will need no treatment, to terminal, the defects will ultimately take the child’s life. Congenital Heart Defects are severely under researched and underfunded. Therefore, the more awareness individuals can spread the more funding the heart community hopes to gain.

Thank you for joining me into the new year and for another month at Share Six! You can share your paper heart images to join the campaign using #paperheartproject #chdawareness

For shares specific to Share Six and for your chance to be featured, use #sharesix_red_heart on Instagram or post on our Facebook page SHARE SIX. A new theme will be posted on 6th March.

30 Minutes in the Life | January 2019 – Play Time

Ceri-Herd-Photography-Playground-Hampshire-UK-Lensbaby

“Thirty Minutes in the Life” features ladies from around the world as we capture 30 minutes in our lives as mothers, wives, daughters, sisters and friends {and photographers}. This is a blog circle so please be sure to visit the next photographer in the circle.

With days seemingly colder and darker than all of 2018 and constantly feeling the chill, we haven’t felt much like getting out and about these past few weeks. We did, however, manage a quick half an hour at the boys’s favourite playground just before school was back in session. I say “favourite” but I think in reality it is the only one they know in this corner of the world. We clearly need to explore more! I hope they don’t grow out of these playground trips too soon. I will just have to treasure each and every one until they do. My favourite Lensbaby, the Edge 80, made the perfect accompaniment for our play time and my own feeling of nostalgia.

Thank you for joining me again this month. Up next in the blog circle is the fabulous Stacey of Stacey Markel Photography. Please click here to visit her page. Want some more amazing inspiration? Keep following the circle to see what other photographers from around the world have shared this month – and don’t forget to leave a little love on their pages!

Share Six Blog Circle – January 2019 | Wide

Happy 2019!

Welcome to another year of Share Six. To kick off 2019, the theme is {wide}: wide angle, wide open apertures, or wide open spaces.

The new year is supposed to be a time for looking forward, but I’m still looking back, reflecting on the events of the past few months and the places I’ve been lucky enough to experience over the past four years. When I thought about our theme for this month, I thought of {wide} in terms of breadth and depth. I was instantly transported back October 2018 and to the wild open spaces of Cape Cod:

Thank you for joining me into the new year and for another month at Share Six!

Post your {Wide} images on our Facebook page SHARE SIX or to our Instagram gallery by using #sharesix_wide. A new theme will be posted on 6th February.

30 Minutes in the Life Blog Circle | December 2018 – Festive 5

Ceri-Herd-Photography-Christmas-Jumper-Rudolph

Christmas 2018 has been and gone. I wish it hadn’t gone so soon: I need more time!

I *love* Christmas, but with so much other life going on, it was a struggle for me to feel my usual festive-self this holiday season. I haven’t felt compelled to pick up my camera either *gasp* but I’m hopeful that my creative drive will return over the coming months as we continue to settle back into life in the UK. For now I’m not going to force it, so I’m not sharing images from one 30 minute slot and I’m keeping this month simple: Christmas Jumper Day and some festive-flavoured still life.

Thank you for joining me again this month. Wishing all my followers and one-time visitors the happiest of holiday seasons and a light- and love-filled 2019.
