Good day! I am so sorry I didn't post anything yesterday. I was out weeding and planting flowers all day, and I may have over done it a bit...just a tad (Stupid "Fibro").
I know I said in my intro that I love photography, and I wanted to share with you some of my work. After reviewing a ton of pictures, I realized that I love to photograph flowers and nature stuff. I also love to photograph people, but, something about outside stuff just intrigues me.
Believe me when I say I do not in any way consider myself a "professional", far from it in fact. But, I love to take pictures. Just ask my computer hard drive. It got mad at me and forced me to move about 15K pictures...
Anyway, here is a look at some of my work...
See, I love taking pictures of flowers!
Black and White is also a favorite of mine. I think 2 things about it. 1. It hides flaws and 2. It brings out some of the best features. I loved the way the vintage fan turned out. Unfortunately the fan belongs to my mom... :(
Again with the flowers! Does it ever stop?? :) The apple holder is my little one Zoe, and the hands in the bottom are mine and my husbands. Awwww, how sweet, right?
Let me say that in regards to the "Smoke Crack" picture, while I don't agree with the sentiment, I thought the picture turned out well. The phone booths were somewhere in London, I love the phone booths there. Do we even have phone booths anymore here in the states??? The ehh hmmmm....beverage is a really good beer that I had in Greenwich England. I swear beer tastes better in Europe. And the apples were taken at Anderson Orchard during Zoe's first field trip.
As you might be able to tell, I like to shoot in cemeteries too. I know it's a bit macabre,
but old headstones are fascinating. I am sure I don't have to point out what the first picture is, but I will anyway, Big Ben in London. That clock is MASSIVE. But it is absolutely breathtaking to stand directly underneath it. The beautiful little girl in orange is my daughter Zoe.
My nephew Alex when he was just a day old. What a cutie pie!
Zoe's favorite horse, Rose. She belongs to my cousins in Northern Indiana. She is such a sweetie.
So there you have it. A small glimpse into my ever expanding "portfolio". If I couldn't take photographs, I think I might wilt away. I swear one of my biggest fears is having my pictures or the external drive they are on, stolen. Ahhh, it chills me to even think about it!
Let me know what you think, and please feel free to share some of your own work! Like painting, or mixed media, or any other form of art, photography is a learning process. And the only opinion that matters is your own. (unless you are trying to get into National Geographic or something! )
Thanks so much for reading and following along. I appreciate it more than you know!
**Please be sure to check back tomorrow, I will be honoring my Aunt who passed away May 12, 2011. She was an artist, business owner, philanthropist, fashionista and just a wonderful woman in general. Her life and death has had an immense impact on my life and so many others. I will try to honor her as best as I possibly can.**
Till Tomorrow,
