Wall writing


This is my first try at this, and the handwriting (if one can call this "handwriting") is terrible, so please excuse the roughness. Have seen some really neat stuff, but not artistically talented myself. Just wished to see if I could get the camera to do what I wanted. FYI, set on "Bulb", f:6.3.

My best attempt. I hate my camera...actually it probably isn't the camera at all.


My own Goldie-locks


This is my Ellie's georgeous head of hair. I thought it'd be a great subject for texture. It's so soft and curly and shiny. And to have been able to get a little sun on it for this shot was great too!

Textures of church ball!


I love basketball.


My little buddy Bailey Donohue. Now that is one three-year-old with some sweet kicks!



Anyone who has spent time in an LDS chapel knows of the "pokey walls" in the cultural hall!

Sweet Textures


My Emma. Bath time, her favorite time...
(for the record, this is her back! :))


Nap time, my favorite time. I love this picture because it's my view when I nuzzle her sweet face as she sleeps. Does it get any better? Mommy payoff! :)

Old Chair

I have really enjoyed "Texture". Thanks to all....you are Inspiring!!!

Flowers

I took these pics of the flowers my wife received for Valentines.


I tried to do some focus stacking on this one. Definitely need to play with that software some more.

I actually took this picture last year. I just found it while going through some files. The only photoshop trick I did was Auto-fix Exposure.
















This is the side of a barn looking from one side to the other. Loved the different shades of browns.
