Boy Cat

Boy Cat decided to be my model this evening! And by "decided to be my model" I mean I stuck my camera in his face over and over and even when he literally turned his back on me I kept at it until I was satisfied. =) He loved it.




CAMP!

Okay okay, I know I missed a post yesterday. But I did take pictures! I was just too tired when I got home to post them. And for good reason: Camp is starting!! This year I'm not working at camp full time which makes me a bit sad, but they're letting me help out a ton which is great.

A taste of how this summer is going to play out:

I can't wait. =D

Take Time to Notice

It's amazing the things you can see when you take the time to notice them.

I think I interrupted his dinner.

Throwback Thursday

I took this back in February. It's one of my favorites because it turned out better than the idea I had of it in my mind. I set up a little "studio" of white printer paper under a desk light thing and put my little Olympus on the super macro setting. There were a few imperfections in the picture so I edited them out and I also brightened the color up a bit.



Compsition 101: Lighting is important. Take LOTS of pictures at different times of day and under lots of different lighting conditions to get a feel for what works. (I'm still working on this one myself!)

. . . Wednesday Wonderings?

Why is it that I only* ever see dudes driving around in those tiny smart cars?

Composition 101: Sometimes getting "the" shot can put you in some awkward situations. Get over yourself.

*After I had planned this post out and taken the picture I saw a woman driving a smart car!
