30 Days of Photographs III: Shiny

Welcome to 30 Days of Photographs III. It's going to be a bumpy ride, so fasten your seatbelt, hold on to your hat and try not to piss your pants with excitement. Michael and I wish you happy photographing, and please make sure to check out the other submissions for Day 1, you can find the links at the bottom of this page, and that's also were you can add your own link.


Shiny

The shiniest thing I own is without doubt my wedding ring. I haven't been wearing it for all that long yet, which is probably why it's still shiny, and I'm still not entirely used to wearing such a fancy ring. But even though it's worth more than my car (my lunch is worth more than my car, though, so maybe that's not the best comparison) and it shines brighter than Michael's bald spot, that's not why I love it. I love this ring for what it symbolizes, a life with the person I love.

Cue the collective "awww."

  1. Great! How am I supposed to compete with a wedding ring symbolizing your recent tryst and everlasting love with M? I cry foul on this one!

  2. AWWWW.... everything I own is worth more than my car! Poor Mike... he's already crying foul. It could be a long month for him!

  3. I cry foul too. In fact, I quit...;) Okay, I don't, but I do quit for today and will start tomorrow, because I'm a rule-breaker. It doesn't help that I was up all night last night volunteering at a local hospice. But I'll be joining y'all starting tomorrow...

  7. Oh yes, pesky volunteering messing with your photo challenge. ;) Seriously, though, I'm looking forward to seeing your photo tomorrow. :)

  8. Haha, I'm with UP, it's going to be a very long month for all of us. But see, everything is a little more difficult when you're MikeWJ. ;)

  9. I know! I can't leave anything on the table, if I turn my back, the cats will take it. This is true for rings, hairbands, coins, telephones...

  10. Awwwww!!! I can already tell my photos will pale in comparison to everyone else's. Not that I'm comparing. That would be so unevolved of me. And not why I'm playing anyway, right? So, besides all that, your ring is absolutely beautiful!

  13. Haha, thank you, Margaret! I assure you, no one will do more comparing than MikeWJ, who thinks everything ultimately is a competition. But that's why we love him, so we let him keep at it.

  23. Damn Disqus, screwing up everything. Well, I'm glad it stuck this time. And thank you ever so much!
