Ice, Ice...

Since it is the last day of the year and it is winter, I thought it appropriate to share a picture of some ice. This will be my last random shot for this blog for awhile. Beginning 2012 I am going to try to attempt a monthly theme based Picture Of The Day and see how it goes. For the month of January, the first theme idea is "Super Size." - What this means is I will take macro shots of small things and make them appear to be large things. I will also attempt some close-ups and/or take pictures of very large things.

Hopefully this will be a project that inspires others to pick up their camera and share some pictures with me. I would love to see some of you, the visitors to this blog, share some of your shots in the comments.

Hope you had a great 2011. May all that you do be a reflection of God in you.

Blessings...

Peeling Paint...

I took this macro shot with my phone. I thought it was an interesting B&W shot... It makes a cool cell phone wallpaper. Feel free to download it and use it for yourself. Have a great day!

Pet Store Wild Life...

Since we can't take the time to go out to nature, I decided to go see nature in the pet store...

Best Friends

Best Friends... Most of the time :)

This is Orange and Emma. They are pretty good friends most of the time and I wanted to share a picture of the two of them together after a long day. Unfortunately Orange has a tumor and will probably only be around for another couple of weeks. He has been a most amazing cat!

Christmas Picture

Well, most of us were able to get into the picture this year... The only one we were missing was Brittany.

Here's hoping you have a very Merry Christmas.

Playing With Exposure

Grayson and I had a good time playing with some exposure settings and light tricks. Here is a shot that we did nothing to other than crop and re-size.

 


 



Here are some details:
9 second exposure
iso 1600
f/14
manual focus

I started the exposure and he walked into the frame, flashed an led onto his face and walked out...

Merry Christmas

Spreading Christmas Cheer

Lori is such a wonderful conversationalist... She took a few minutes today to chat with the Salvation Army Bell Ringer and give him a word of encouragement!

Cheers!

The Stray Cat

Walking around taking pictures of Christmas lights I encountered this stray cat as it crossed my path.
