Happy Easter!

Wishing you a blessed Easter!

In memory

ROCKY

Sweet Friend and Companion

September 1996 to March 2013

She is greatly missed.

It's February!?

My sweet DH pointed out to me last night that I had not updated my blog in a couple of weeks so I thought well, if he's reading it, I'm going to post something for him to read!  The 365 Project continues, the picture above was for the prompt "a pop of  red".  These do actually hang in my kitchen all year round because I think they look sweet and someday I want red appliances in the kitchen!  So these remind me of a wish.

Here I am shooting a picture that just about everyone does at some point.  It's not as easy as it looks, trying to get things in focus while posing in the bathroom mirror.  I finally got one I could live with though.

I am taking tons of pictures at school for some student projects we are working on and I've been learning how to video tape and edit video for school as well.  Maybe one of these times, I attempt a video for this little blog.  It's been fun so far and the kids have really seemed to enjoy the activity we are all learning a lot.

Well, I'm off to finish dinner and clean up.  Have a great week and happy Valentine's day.  I'll talk to you again soon.

Still going...

I'm still on track with my 365 project.  The prompt for this picture was "bright", I was up early (5:30) on a Saturday to try to capture the sun rise.  This was shot the first few seconds of the sun coming up over the mountains.  In just that few seconds it got really bright.  The month is flying by I can't believe we'll be in February  by the end of the week.  Have a great week and stay warm.

I'll talk to you again soon.

Week 3

My 365 project continues, this was my favorite shot of the week.  It's been fun to see how different everyone's interpretation of the daily inspiration plays out.  Sometimes you see a lot of the same kind of shot and other days they are all wildly different.  Well, I have a day off tomorrow and I'm trying to decide... sleep in or get up early and try to catch another sunrise in my viewfinder.  Hmmm, we'll have to wait and see how the morning goes. 

Have a great week, I'll talk to you again soon.

365 project

This was a tough week to get a daily photograph done.  But, I did it.  This was my favorite shot from this week.  The prompt for the day:  Movement.  Hope you have a wonderful week, I talk to you again soon.

365 photography challenge

OK, so in an effort to improve my photography skills and make myself get out and take pictures I decided to challenge myself to take at least one picture everyday.  There are lots of these challenges on the web but I decided to join in on one at Capture your 365.  There is a daily challenge topic if you get stuck with not knowing what to take a picture of and I like getting the email every morning to get my brain kick started on an idea for a shot.  

Of course not all shots will be planned since most days I leave just after sunrise and come back home just before or just after sunset, guess that's why it's a challenge, ha!  This was my favorite picture this week.  The topic was "repetition" this picture has a couple of different repetition elements to it, first is the lines and hardware and second it reminded me of how many times I have opened and closed card catalog drawers, repeatedly (before there was on-line catalogs).  I plan to post my favorite picture of the week to keep you up to date with my little project.  Wish me luck!

I'll talk to you again soon.
