Mar. 20th 79/365 "Bath Time" I spent the last 2 days chasing the moon, and I'm sure my dogs were hoping that's what I would do today . . . instead, it was bath and grooming time for the little ones. As you can see, Lucia is not very happy.

Came across this post the other day and thought it was worth sharing with everyone because we've all discussed most of these pointers. Well written and funny. How to Work Really Hard at Photography and Still suck at It

Mar. 19th 78/365 "Supermoon Over Roswell" Camera seemed to be "misbehavin" LOL - -- Wb seemed to be off . . . rising moon was spectacular . . . couldn't believe how red it was . . . thought Jupiter veered off course!

I used the photographer's ephemeris. The time was wrong by about an hour. I'm thinking it didn't take daylight savings time into consideration. Then, because it was still so bright out, the sun hadn't set yet at 5:30, I almost missed it rising on the horizon about 6:30 because I was looking in...

Mar. 18th 77/365 'Sunset Glow"

Re: Moon HDR Still a pretty good shot, Anthony. Tomorrow is "supermoon", you're right. I wanted to catch the moon as it was coming up over the horizon and while the sun was still up. 5 shots in Photomatix. For some reason I had problems with noise, and the de-noising was softening the edges...

Mar. 17th 76/365 "Smile" Read another post today on photo assignments . . . suggestion was made to ask a perfect stranger to take his/her picture. So that's what I did. Went out with friends for a glass of wine . . . our cute bartender gladly complied. Sometimes I forget how much I enjoy...

Mar. 16th 75/365 "Contrast" Well, obviously I didn't get this in on time, but at least I did it so I'm posting it for day 75.

Food Weekly Challenge Mar. 16 - Mar. 23 Make me hungry. Lets stay away from restaurant food, fast food, and premade store bought dishes. Sorry you're going to have to save that TV dinner for another time because nothing beats a good home cooked meal. Be it Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, or Desert...

Mar. 15th 74/365 "Age and Weather" An old juniper tree in my back yard.

Mar. 14th 73/365 "Swoosh!" Back to playing with water and other liquids!

This blog post really hit home with me. After staying on the 365 challenge for 70+ days, I'm realizing that my best photos are the ones where I approached the task from a "photo assignment" standpoint, as opposed to doing a simple "walkabout" with my camera. Photo Assignments

Mar. 13th 72/365 "Simple Little Rosebuds"

Total redo on the day 71 photo. My initial attraction was the sky, not the cedar trees. And that's what I focused on. Here's what I have learned from this: 1. iso 800 and slow shutter speed is the perfect recipe for noise in the shadow areas, and lots of it . . . LR and Define take most out but...

Thanks, Jen and Joe! Mar. 12 71/365 "Cedars and Sunset" Sat on the deck and waited for bluebirds. Found this sunset instead.

Mar. 11th 70/365 "Prayer Plant" Trying to get ready for flower season by practicing macro and focus stacking . . . a little hard to get the focus just right on 8 shots. Processed in Helicon Focus.

Mar. 10th 69/365 "Ukrainian Pysanky" . . . my other artistic endeavor.

Mar. 9th 68/365 "Water Under A Bridge"
