From the Archive

IMG_0130

I found this photo in my 2007 Archive while looking for ‘selective focus’ photos for The Fringe

Annnd I decided to post it ‘big’ because I like it so much :)

 

What do you like about it? Or what would you change?

3 Guesses, Anyone???

Anyone want to guess where I was last Saturday??

 IMG_4763Did I hear “Enchanted Springs”? Yes? You were right!

What put that thought into your head?

3 posts about the Ranch, you say?

 

Oh.

 

That does make sense.

 

(chuckles)

Well, my sisters and I were ‘lassoed’ into working at ESR

on Saturday for a Spurs fan day.

I helped the photographer, and the girls did various

jobs offering drinks, etc.

Our ‘Old West Photo’ station was the hardware store

(where my family photo was taken)

and we had a delightfully fun time helping the customers get duds on and pose!

I wish I had taken a picture of our little setup, but with doing the printing onsite, I was

really busy…most of the time :)

Now who wouldn’t want to get their photo taken at this place?

IMG_4764I just have to brag about this beautiful sign.

One of the amazing workers at the Ranch, Joe, made this by hand

for the photo studio.

Can I sign you up to get your own sign???

Since I was so busy inside the studio, I never did see any Spurs players

or even the Coyote mascot…and I must admit that I would have

tried to get autographs except for the fact that I don’t even know

a single player’s name….I’m a slow Texan, I know.

Maybe next year.

 

Check out that man’s hat! I heard the words “Throw it away!” and “Skunk!”

Somehow I think you’re supposed to put the two together and act accordingly. :D

 

I hope I don’t tire you with continual ESR postings, but when in Texas you gotta shoot cowboys…western style :)

10 meter Challenge

Today, I followed a link in my email to an article on the Digital Photography School website. There was a link under the article that led to The Ten Meter Challenge :)

“There are at least 10 great pictures within 10 meters of you right now.”

In the space of about 5 minutes I took 49 pictures! It was amazing how much you can do

when you set your mind to it :) Most of them were practices in exposure, and these

are the ones that turned out :) All are right out of the camera!IMG_4738

“Harp Chair”IMG_4748

  Can’t wait to see what the sunset will be through this window tonight!

My sister loves to do ‘quilling’, and made this card for my birthday :)

 IMG_4724

Love the shallow depth of field with my 50mm lens!!!

Why don’t you try the challenge, too? All of mine were taken by sitting at my desk, and it is quite fun!

I {heart} Shape Collage…

heart I found this super-neat photo…thingy… on Photojojo’s website, and being a photo-thingy-tryer-outer I decided to have some fun!!

It’s a free download, and you can do all sorts of shapes and words…great card idea!!

 

Then I was browsing ‘Leica’ on ebay, and found this….and this….and this…. I really have a penchant for miniatures and amazing point-and-shoots :)

 

Someday when my ship comes in….let me know if you see it on the horizon…okay?

 

 

P.S. The pics in the collage all have something to do with a special project that I shall tell you all about soon!
