1 Photo + Six Words

I recently blogged about how I'm getting bored of scrapping the same ol' activities year after year. Before Miller was in school I did a lot more moment scrapping. Those pages usually had just a single picture and a little journaling about parenthood or childhood. Lately I scrap out about outings, and I make a lot of double pages with lots of photos.

I thought I would try to mix moment scrapping back in. I was reminded of the article I wrote called Six Word Story for the Artisan Notebook in 2012. What I've decided to do is every once in a while I'll scrap a moment page with 1 photo and 6 words of journaling. Here is my first one.

This was a picture I took at a local art museum. There was bright light streaming through the windows, but I adjusted the exposure of the picture to correctly expose the shirt that the scientist is wearing. The windows are washed out, but I like the overall effect. Because I liked the photo so much, I wanted to do something with it. As I looked at it, I recalled that as soon as we got the the museum, the scientist headed straight over to the food shop and got some snacks. We all have our priorities.
