I took this photo over near my parents house at an old run-down one room barn. I immediately knew what feel I was going for and was excited to get home and edit it. The warmth provided by the direct sunlight made for some pretty intense shadows, which I tried to embrace rather than hide from. :-) I was pretty pleased with the way it turned out…topped it off with 3 Kim Klaussen Textures and voila! Enjoy!

This is an oldie, but goodie. One of my favorites and one of the ones I’ve chosen to enter in the Local Photo Contest in a few weeks.
I took this photo when I first got started back in late April/early May. It’s one of my absolute favorites. I have a color version, too. And just for the sake of showing it off, I shall now present it to you as my link up for Lovely Photo Wednesday with Aspire.
Hope you guys have a GREAT day!
Read more...I already posted a photo similar to this for Macro Friday…but in lieu of my memory card messing up and losing all of my photos, I have to improvise and shoot something…so here ya’ go. :-)
I’m behind. I can’t help it. I’m swamped right now and I’m afraid that it’s only going to get worse when we get our orders and I start trying to track us down somewhere to live. Not to mention, my photos that I shot for all of the challenges that I knew about this week, are gone thanks to a jacked up memory card. ::Hiss:: But no matter, here are the ones that I’ve been able to round up.
Ok. Maybe that’s all…for now at least. Have a great day!
Read more...I’m really bummed out this morning. I have been insanely busy this week potty training and running errands. I’ve been shooting photos and snapping my heart away all week long, keeping up with my Project 365. I had intentions of editing my heart out today. Last night I went to upload all of my photos and they were gone. Don’t know how, don’t know why, but gone. Everything I shot this week…I was heartbroken. Never had that happen. Thank GOD there weren’t any session photos on there. So, instead today I’m linking up another shot, an older shot, for Macro Friday…
Today Maegan over at Madeline Bea is having a “check-in” link for all of our 365 projects. Instead of just linking up a bunch of new photos since I haven’t edited hardly anything this week I am going to post a few of my absolute favorite 365 Shots so far. Right now, I am on Day 36, but you’ll have to come back tomorrow to see this weeks shots!
I don’t really have anything to post today…
Nothing that I have shot recently fits with any of today’s photo challenge themes.
So…instead, I’m just going to leave you with one of my favorite photos from recently.
Enjoy.
I took several shots of these cute little red flowers this past week [or was it last week?] for my Project 365. I used one photo for yesterdays’ Before and After, but I have another today for Macro Friday with Laura. I was unbelievably surprised with how this turned out. Even SOOC. Of course, me being the junkie that I am, I had to add some fun textures and I’m really pleased with the outcome. I shot this using my Canon Rebel Xsi and my 18-55 Kit Lens.
And this week I’m joining in for Shoot and Tell with Natalie. This weeks theme is bokeh, so I went digging through the archives for one of my favorite bokeh photos. I took this in a Garden at a shoot I did back in May.This was before I learned how to use textures, so the only editing that’s been done to this [beside the watermark] is a slight bump in color.
I had a nice fun before and after photo of Candy Corn that I was going to post today in honor of the beginning of Fall. Then I started working on some of my waaaay behind schedule Project 365 edits and found one [okay, about five] that I liked better. So..here I am, changing my mind at nearly 10:30 on Wednesday night because I am indecisive. And truth be known, if I don’t hit PUBLISH when I’m done and close my computer for the night, I’m bound to change my mind again. So without further ado:
I was really excited about how this one turned out. I used new textures that I found from the uh-mazing Kim Klaussen. And I used the Pioneer Woman Actions that I am so very, very fond of. I shot this using my Canon Rebel Xsi and I actually shot it with my 18-55 kit lens. I haven’t been using this lens much, but after seeing how some of these photos turned out…I am PRETTY sure that I just changed my mind. Head over to Monica’s to play along. I’m also entering this in the You Capture Theme: Flowers!
Ok. I’m totally and completely 110% behind on editing and posting. As we speak [ok, well as I type] I am attempting to eat supper (at a very late 10:00 pm), edit said photos that I am behind on and type this little post up for tomorrow. I don’t like when I miss challenges. I feel out of it. And I don’t feel cool. Because there is no post here for all of you to come comment on. So that’s why I’m going all Carrie Bradshaw right now as I multi-task and type and post and eat and…well you get the picture. I have not chosen a winner for my Giveaway here yet. I’m sorry. I will have it posted for you tomorrow. For sure. Please accept my apologies now and have a look at the photo that I have chosen for my Sweet Shot this week.
I took this in the broad daylight by the window in the kitchen. However, when I saw it on my computer when I uploaded it, I knew that I had something totally different in mind for this photo. And this was it. Dark background with the bright contrasting yellow. I could really get all philosophical on you here, but I won’t.
And since it’s Tuesday and I just discovered this new challenged, I thought I would show you the original before photo so that I could link up with Touch up Tuesday. So here you go. The before:
