Flowers at the Arboretum…

I don’t remember what even half of these flowers were called, but they were darn pretty.  We walked around the Arboretum, and though that it would be a nice place for a wedding (and not just because it was clear several brides were on hand today to get their wedding portraits taken).  A membership (only [...]

The Arboretum

The Arboretum has a super display of bonsai.  This is one of my favorite pictures of the bonsai I saw today at the Arboretum.

I’d pick up bonsai as a hobby, except that I’ve exceeded my lifetime limit for new hobbies.  I love the look of the copper wire that molds the branches as bonsai become [...]

Blue Ridge Parkway

Marc and I went for a drive along the parkway today while waiting for Moira to finish up a shoot in Black Mountain. Lovely weather. We ended up driving through clouds, which we always enjoy! I don’t know yet if the photos came out. I’ll post ‘em if they did later!

Three of my favorite girls…

…Els feeds Dorothy while Milo ignores the camera. Loving our time with the grandbaby! So cute! Photos from JC Penney looked great – can’t wait for them to arrive.

Moira, as a rockin’ makeup artist…

Photos by Nick, a photographer she works with often.

Next weekend, in an effort [...]

Photographs

A slow weekend, but we headed to the park today to take some photographs.  (I locked my keys in the car, ha ha, and then we took pictures while we waited about for someone to come and open our car.)

Marc sat on the cold metal bench and froze while I took pictures.  Brrr!  Brrrr!

Moon

This is my first attempt at photographing the moon.  My guess is that I need a filter, or a cloudy night, or maybe a not-full moon, in order to improve this.

Photography projects

I’ve got a whole slew of photography projects I’d like to begin.  I’m enjoying seeing what my camera can do, what post-processing can do.

Here are a few things I hope to work on in the coming year:

A perpetual calendar: This perpetual calendar would require some work to find the appropriate images for use in it’s [...]
