Bird is the Word.
Hang it, and they will come. We received our first guest on the new bird feeder. I was all fired up to test the capabilities of my new, pre-owned 200mm Nikon lens; it’s superior to my 70mm Nikon kit lens, but it still falls short of National Geographic quality photos. Admittedly, a lens of that quality can cost thousands of dollars. Can anyone spare some change?
First go at Photoshop
My first project using Photoshop: The tutorial calls this Hand Coloring, which means turning the color photo into a grayscale, and then choosing a certain object and reverting it (and only it) back to color. It’s a pretty cool effect.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.
The kids are asleep. Christmas Vacation, a holiday classic, just ended. It’s almost time for Santa Clause to do his thing.
After the Storm
The snow came down pretty hard yesterday, forcing me to work from home. The bad part? We were up early this morning shoveling the driveway. My back is killing me – time for a snowblower. But after the shoveling it was time for sledding, and a few photo opportunities.
Seen better days.
A good photographer can make something out of nothing. I’m not a good photographer, and so this photo isn’t much of anything. But it’s my blog, and so I present to you a dying pumpkin.
Now THAT’s a Pumpkin.
A close look at the loot one of my kids scored while trick or treating. I took my cut after they went to bed, because technically I’m not supposed to take a cut. If they only knew.
Okay, so my last couple of posts were a little late in coming, after all, it’s Christmas next week and you’re looking at pumpkins.
"They say it’s their Birthday"
Happy 7th Birthday to Eric and Christy. An American Girl doll and stilts for Christy; Legos and an RC car for Eric.
My Gallery (made by Mac)
This is my last post praising the Mac, but this link is well worth checking out. I created this photo-sharing page on the Mac using an application called IPhoto. It was insultingly simple to do.
The Mac is back!
It’s been 20 years since I bought my first Mac. But a few days ago, I bought a new Mac, and I’m never going back…except at work (you can’t beat Vista at work). But at home when you’re editing photos, movies, and creating websites – it’s the Mac hands down.
There, I said it.
