Aberdeen Photographer - 366 Photography Challenge – Week Forty One
Welcome to Week Forty-One of my 366 Photography Challenge! This week, my photography has been inspired by the beauty of nature, the changing light of Aberdeenshire, and the early Halloween spirit.
Day 272: The Shell
I was pressed for time on Day 272, so I grouped a few shells, planning to capture a minimalist shot. However, this particular shell caught my eye—the texture reminded me of marble. That's how my creative brain works!

Day 273: The Thistle
During my walk, this thistle plant caught my attention with its tough, uninviting texture, which I found fascinating. As people walked by, they didn’t seem to understand why I was photographing it, but that didn’t matter. The image was already in my mind. Everyone sees the world through their own unique filter.

Day 274: Sunrise in Aberdeenshire
Aberdeenshire is a stunning part of Scotland, with light that can be dreamy, as seen in this photo, or dramatic on a stormy day. Since I wake up before sunrise, I grabbed my camera and captured this beautiful light unfolding outside my window.

Day 275: Bennachie Mountain – Aberdeenshire
Another glorious Aberdeenshire sunrise! I didn’t have my camera with me initially, so I rushed home to grab it and returned to this spot just in time to capture the ever-changing light. I was lucky to snap this shot before the moment passed.

Day 276: Halloween is Coming
October means it’s time to get into the Halloween spirit! After a long day and with the weather not cooperating, I had limited options. The idea of creating a monochromatic image with this Halloween decoration came to mind, and I’m pleased with how it turned out.

Day 277: Afternoon Walk
I know I’ve photographed this path before, but it’s always so enchanting. The low autumn sun bathed the scene in such a beautiful light that I couldn’t resist capturing it again.

Day 278: Ghosting – Halloween Theme
For the final picture of this week, I kept the Halloween vibe by draping two white sheets over myself and taking some selfies. The final face was added using AI. The weather was dreadful, so I had to be resourceful with what I had at home.
My husband came into my studio and burst out laughing. He said, “I wanted you to review an important email, but I think this is the wrong moment to ask something serious.” I responded, “Yes, I’ll go in a few minutes.” Another photography week done.
