The birth of my infatuation or perhaps I should say my obsession with photography began in the mid nineties. Then my main subjects were my children, since my children have left the nest for many years now my passion for photography has never faded but rather grown in a different direction. I have discovered that beauty is never ending, taking on forms that I could have never imagined. I feel blessed that my world has expanded through photography and hope my passion never weakens.

Goofing Around The Yard

The theme for today was looking up. Not really just bored. 




Canon 60d

I couldn't help myself so I had to go to Amazon.com to check out the price of the Canon 60d that I so desperately want. Think it would be well received if I stood by a road, held up a sign and asked people to give me money so that I could buy my 60d? I'm almost tempted to see if it would work. I'm such a chicken sh*t.

Morning Dove

For the last two winters my feeding station has hosted these Morning Doves. I really do not mind except for the fact that they seem to take over and rapidly eat all the food. I find myself going out several times a day to scare them off so the little birds can get in there and eat as well. Not the best photo, the sun is in a bad spot.


Around Devou Park

 A different view of the city.

 More photos of Prisoner's Lake.

Fishing on Prisoner's Lake. I always see a lot of people fishing here. I really have no idea if they ever catch anything. 

This is the way I felt yesterday, just a big mess...lol

Back In Time

I drive by this car and tractor (owned by the same person) quite often but never seem to have my camera with me, this time I made a point to bring it. Used some editing software again. I'm going to knock on their door to see if they will allow me to take some closeup shots. These were taken from the road and just not exactly what I wanted but still enjoyable.

Used Some Editing Software

I use to use this free editing software program called Picnik, I rarely used it, it was not exactly the best. Out of 5 stars I would give it a 1.5 star rating however, I received an email from them that they are closing the program down and will be offering even the premium service for free so I thought I would go back and check it one more time. Now that I have the premium service available I will up my ranking to 2 stars. Below is some of the results. The photos are ones that I recently uploaded. Not bad, I kinda like a couple of them. So if anyone is really out there please make a comment as I would like to know what you think.

End of RT. 8

Not sure I would want to have this as my view. I was there 5 minutes and started to get a headache, which I am sure was brought on just by the thought of being near this.
