Day 157 - Downstairs, QUICK! Very little time to do much of anything because of the day's events, but at one point, my boss (knowing my love for photography) came running in to tell me about the colorful bug I needed to run down and get a snap of... of course, I obliged. Not fancy, just quick.

Day 156 - Forkin' around with a little eggsperiment... *rimshot and cymbal crash go here* <track laugh> Started out with the fork idea from a pic I'd run across on the internet, but wanted a different composition. First, this is original uncropped composition, with...

Day 155 - Playin' With Crayons Yup, had some fun messin' tonight. Had one idea I wanted to shoot, then the rest was just playin' around. First, the playin' around pics. Then, the idea that I actually started with, and my fave of tonight's work. Have some friends that are having a baby...

Day 154 continued - for my kiddo... My oldest, now out of the house, has a LOVE AFFAIR with books, so I gave her one special edit... Nothing fancy, just some text added:

Day 154 - Hello, old friend... I remember, in my younger years and well before this age of miraculous technology, how I used to get LOST in books and all the magical realms they carried me into. I can remember digging through Reader's Digest, volume after volume, at Granny's house during the...

Alright, @BackdoorHippie, here's what I've done with your excellent tutelage! (only hitch I had was in figuring out I need to click "Add Open Files" when stacking, as it wouldn't let me proceed or choose auto-align, LOL) What do ya think???

Re: nidding's first year of shooting And one other that I toyed with as well... giving it that "recorded down deep in the library cellars" kinda feel?

Re: nidding's first year of shooting REALLY diggin' this one! GREAT mood and feel to it! Dabbling really fast, here's what I came up with.

What if I keep a little bit of the dreamy aspect, but drop most of the color except for the pinwheels?

Day 153 - A day's wages? Good Lord, but some days it feels like that anyway!

Day 152 - Final post, and my fave shot of the day. Had to wait and get mom's permission to share online. 3 different edits, my fave of which changes from moment to moment. Yesterday, it was the middle one, today it's a toss-up between the B&W and the dreamier look... Thoughts?

Then a few random shots from the night that I enjoyed... Sliding in for the... OUT! What did coach keep screaming? Oh yeah, watch the ball into the glove... WATCH IT INTO THE GLOVE! Ok, what did that pic look like in the pitcher's manual again? Proud chest... overhead pendulum...

Ok, a few more Day 152 pics before I get to tonight's pic. :) 1st, another pitching series from a guy I nicknamed "Chicken Wing". You'll see why in the middle of his series... Hint: Next pic... Do ya see it? This was part of every single pitch! BA-GOK!!! Think he tried to put some...

Day 152 - continued A few "interpretations" from the day's shots. "Swingin' for the fences" "Field of Dreams" "Ready"

Day 152 - Take me out to the ball game! Got a day at the local ballpark with the wife's workplace. I was the official "family discount" photographer for a few awards, but the fun came when it was over and I got to swap to the 70-300 and test out CH on "Primal Beast". I left it on Raw + JPG...

Day 151 - it's been a week... Very little motivation today, and didn't want to do another "flower" shot, so I waffled until I almost ran out of time. THEN, I remembered the two new additions to our household. Meet our mini indoor palm (helps with purifying the air), and the 99 cent wonder...

Day 150 - Trying to tan in peace... ...and a big bald guy comes up with a camera and makin' trouble! FULL stretch... love this warm rock! Wait... is that guy pointin' that thing at ME!? Don't get any closer! I'll JUMP! I mean it! Don't take one more... Gone!

Day 149 - shots of opportunity On the way out the door this morning, I saw the sunlight shining through the shades on the wife's new curtains, so snapped a shot just because... Then, tonight, while watering the flowerbed, I almost reached out and brushed away some old cobwebs with my hand...

WARNING: The next two day's pics are... blegh... Day 147 - Trying to get a pic of the large print I won in it's new frame. Trying to get one light to light it up is practically..... impossible. Here was my best shot before I gave up in disgust. This snapshot does the pic no justice at...

Day 146 - A Day of Rest? That's what a holiday off of work is supposed to be, right? Nah... No formal pics today. The 1st part of the day WAS restful, as we got to sleep in! Then, the morning was spent hanging curtain rods (measuring, marking level, pre-drilling, etc) for the wife's newest...
