January 20: Perfectly Imperfect (Photography Challenge)

These are just a few photos I took at our new house - we went to get pictures of the staining on the cabinets and it was dusk and I forgot to set the flash on my phone...and they are purple...lol.

What a great idea for a challenge. I know I have many imperfect photos that I just can't part with, like when one of my kids was born. Every single photo taken in the hospital was bad, and the only ones I had! We didn't know our camera was dying and wouldn't focus. I may use something else because I'd have to find the negatives and scan them. The others are papers scrappes!

Haha, the delivery of my second son went so quickly that he was born before we could take any photos AT ALL... The actual first thing I said after he was born was "Wow, you're here so quick, now I didn't get any photos for your album!" :giggle:lmao
 

This was the only photo that we had from Thanksgiving and I think it goes without saying why I chose it (and I even did a little fixing). I was so disappointed when I realized it so I'm so thankful that you allowed me to see the beauty in it. Great challenge!
 
You can use any photo or photos you wish, hun. :agree We would not know that you did not take the photo until you told us. :giggle
Unless you knew how old I was Haha!! The photo im using is from the 30s and I was not around till the 70s! :)
 
Both of these photos are imperfect - the vintage one is very grainy and out of focus and the newer one has a doorknob coming out of my head.

My first born we took lots of photos at the hospital only to get home and realize there had been no film in the camera. Not a single photo.

My second, came so fast, and was so traumatic, no photos.
 
The pictures themselves aren't bad, although taking photos in the dark with an iphone can sometimes be a challenge, but I chose them because while they are OK photos, they imperfectly capture the moment... no photos could do justice to how amazing an experience this was.
