Day 279 - Orange

Happy Halloween! Took this at Central Market from my iPhone this afternoon in response to the Daily Shoot Prompt, "The color of the day is orange. Make a photograph that is full of orange today. "

Day 278 - A "Quieter" Mayfield Park

It is a beautiful Saturday.  The morning was cool and great for a run.  However, I could not head back to housework just yet, so I took my camera to Mayfield Park, one of my favorite places.  Gone were the water lilies, the Koa, the turtles, and most of the aquatic plants.  But, I was delightfully surprised to find a garden area with lots of butterflies and bees.  So put on that "macro" lens and took a few shots.  Really looking forward to my new camera.  I think it will have some great features that can keep up with the lens I have.

Day 277 - Swim Fast, Jaguar!

Love those Jaguars! Shot the top picture using a new Bokeh kit I got against some purple minilights. Just a few shots in the early morning.  I am looking forward to trying some more of this!

 I also shot some pictures of the Knights today as well.  Here is a favorite close-up photo of one of those swimmers.

Daily Shoot Prompt, "Bathrooms are full of hard surfaces, textures, and personal implements. Find an inspiring photograph in a bathroom today. "
