Live Strong
I did a Senior photo shoot today with a young man that made it easy to get great images. The camera loved him. I noticed his Lance Armstrong "Live Strong" bracelet and had to get this shot.

Boy in Hat
This was a very interesting young man to photograph. He was a member of a large family group we were photographing. But this boy was a natural in front of a camera so I took the opportunity to shoot a view extra photos just of him. By the way, he is 10yrs old, a staight A student taking college level courses. When I asked him what he wanted to do as an adult, he replyed he would be a dancer and/or an actor. No doubt he will be sucessful at whatever he chooses.

So how did this happen?
This boy and some of his friends were hitting a beach ball back and forth. I had hoped to catch the ball just over the boys head as he hit it...obviously that didn't happen. But when this came out of the camera and I looked at it, it looked to me like the boy was put in the picture after the fact. Look at the shadow under the fingers of the hand that is in the air and along the forearm, not likely places to have that kind of a shadow. The only thing I have done to this photo is resize and sign it, so can someone tell me how I got that shadowing? Any help appreciated.

Fern lost a digit.
I love the little bits of imperfection mother nature gives us.

Man Scent
The "challenge" word is Masculine. This is one of my husbands pipes, I propped the darn thing up in a shot glass, I couldn't find any tobacco for it so I kept dropping matches into the bowl and then I'd grab my camera, focus and shoot. Used a blue filter

Reflections and Shadows
We had quite a bit of rain this week so I didn't check my little potted plants to see if they needed water. Apparently they did....hey I got a "quirky" little photo out of the deal! Check out my digital art gallery for a manipulated version.

Getting Ready for Summer
While wandering the beach of a local State Park before the official opening of the summer season, These life guard chairs with a fresh coat of bright red paint caught my eye.

The Drip
Caught this just as the drip of water was about to fall from the icicle. Could it be that Spring is near? It was 40 degrees today!!

Shoes
I was sitting at a stop light at a very busy intersection and looked up and saw these shoes hanging from the wires....grabbed the camera sitting on the seat beside me. I wonder how they got there, who they belonged too...what is their story???

"Straws"
It's a cold, dismal, rainy, ice storm, morning in Nothern, NY. The gloom is oppressive....then as I walked through my kitchen, the big glass bucket full of colorful straws caught my eye. So I made a Bloody Mary and grabbed my camera. Now the day isn't quite so gloomy! LOL

Blue Glass Building
We were walking along in Niagara Falls (It was very very cold)when I looked up to see this blue mirrored hotel and this couple braving the cold to view the falls from their room. I originally had this in my "Structures" Gallery, but when I made this gallery I knew I needed a copy here.

Instant Summer
I was walking through Walmart this morning and these white shells caught my eye. Bought them and some white sand, brought them home and threw them in a glass bowl - Instant Summer!
