Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer...Psalms 19: 14
My husband who is a fantastic scrabble player was watching a football game today, consequently I played a game by myself pretending to be two players..
I used two tile racks... one on my left and one on my right.. I ended up getting 411 points on my left side and 261 points on my right:) The left side definitely had better tiles all the way through while the right side fell behind:)
I very much love Scrabble ... for me it is a very calming game. Not everyone cares for it as it is slow going and takes a lot of thought.. I feel it is worth it to learn new words from the Scrabble dictionary that I had never heard of before.
I did a manual focus on my self portrait and this time it was a little easier as I pre-focused on the letters of the Scrabble game box to get a sharper focus before setting the self timer... there was not too much light in the room outside of the lamp behind me and a candle on the table.
Existing Light ...No flash

Donald, our driveway was snowed in and this was the ideal time to play a game
of Scrabble...At my age it helps to exercise the brain and have fun at the same
time. Thanks for the comment. -

Great indoor, low light and manual focus photo of you playing a solitaire game of Scrabble : ). I love to play Scrabble also, but have to play it against the computer as I do not have anyone that is interested in playing the game with me. I enjoy it with the computer : )
