Day 763 - Thumbs Up!

No time to spend with my camera tonight as I have lots to deal with at work.
Thumbs up to the three of you who get it and made me laugh today !
Sometimes if it is not fun, you have to make it that way!

Day 758 - Painted Sky

It was a warm, beautiful day.  A cold front is coming in this evening which brought some clouds and a beautiful sky at sunset.

Day 755 - "Chocolate"


Well, here are the final two that I submitted this afternoon for my Project 52 Assignment, "Chocolate".  Still feel like it needs some work, but it is better than what I started with initially.  It definitely took a great deal of work with getting the lighting.  I wanted to keep working on it, but did not want to run up against the deadline and miss the critique.  Besides two more projects have already been "assigned"....so I need to begin working on them.  Shooting "food" is challenging to be sure!  For the record, the bottom photo was taken today.  Staying true to the "365 Blog" goal.

Day 754 - Yep...Missed It!

You know...sometimes you just want to get "that shot" at a sporting event of
"that person".  Had my camera set perfectly today waiting...got distracted by shooting a fellow team member, and missed the shot.  Disappointed, but happy he had a great time.  May my camera (and my brain) be faster next time!



Here is a LINK to the shots from today from the Frost Your Fanny Duathlon.
Congratulations to the Texas Tech team.  You all were awesome!

Day 749 - Making my way to work...

Stopped at a light on my way to work,
 and I noticed  the car in front of me.
Thought about the driver and think they must eat overpriced organic foods,
but may want to hang out more with them than those with
the "My kid is an honor student" bumper stickers.

Day 747 - Bacon Roses


My son has come up with a creative alternative to red roses this Valentines Day.
He made Bacon Roses for his girlfriend (who loves bacon, of course!)
Good job thinking outside of the box!

Day 746 - Coming up for Air


Tend to shoot a lot of swimmers, and somehow never get tired of trying to attempt this shot when a backstroker make their turns off the wall.  You have to catch "just" the moment with the bubble as it happens very quickly, and nine times out of ten they don't turn out. 
I like this one I took today.
Congratulations to everyone who participated in the Regional meet today!

Day 743 - Front Cover - Project 52

I have a completely new respect for those who shoot Editorial Portraits.
Not easy for sure.  You just want to get it so perfect, but there are so many constraints.
Thanks to John for being such a great sport on this!
