The Fence



Brillance

 I like to post when I can show you what I did with my camera.  Today on my way home from work I drove by this fence.  I drove past it and something in my brain quietly said, "That would be a nice picture."  I made an agreement with myself that if I heard that little voice I would listen and stop if time allows.  So, I stopped and played with aperature and available lighting, and God's brillance....

Reading...

I hope to make this blog a little bit more exciting.  A post about reading should have more about what I was reading....  I really don't remember....I'll try to do better in the future =)

Did I make it?

I have been really tired lately and I am pretty sure that I tried to read about photography at 10 pm and I fell asleep in the chair.  My favorite show "Biggest Loser" was on and my sister called,  so I recorded the show and talked to her.  Afterward I tried to read and I struggled to get in my required 30 minutes!

Macro Monday

Handmade With Love

I went to the Camera Club meeting tonight and we were told to bring in our tripods, and some little objects to photograph.  I chose these 3 little wooden hand carved angels I bought at an estate sale.  They are adorable to me, so I took them in and did a little set up.  It was fun playing with the lighting, and softening it with napkins and paper towels, and my little ball of polyfil.  I love the result.

More and More

I did more picture sorting today and posting Colorado vacation pictures to FB for the friends and family to view. They have been bugging me to post them so I had to buckle down.  After I sort, I need to eliminate, eliminate, eliminate,....ruthlessly.  I seem to be taking more and more.....

Fall Mornings

God's Morning Treasure

I woke up at 6:30 am this morning, before the sun rose.  I wanted to go out and try to capture something special.  I did, but it was not what I expected.  I expected to see some beautiful sunrise colors, soft pinks, yellows, maybe peach and pastel blues.  It didn't happen so I decided to go farther and adventure into the woods... and what a treasure God had waiting for me....

Picture Sorting

Believe it or not I am still sorting through all my picture files.  I am sorting them into files on my desk top and from there I will go through each folder and delete the crappy ones, contemplate the "so-so's" and work on the potentials in Photoshop Elements 7.
