TwoLips pic of the day 03-04-09

Hmmmm… I wonder if I have an obsession with flowers. 🙂

So what is better than one TwoLip?……TU TwoLips!


I’m doing  pretty good  in not letting the camera pick my settings for me. No Auto for me! Therefore, lots and lots of practice is needed. So, today’s photo challenge was to play around with light sources.  Practicing with light was a very important lesson.  I experimented with natural light,  flash,  and some seriously powerful construction lamps.  I was totally pleased with the results and had a serious problem picking the day’s winner.

Obviously there are runners up!


Maybe it is just the subject matter, but today’s shots, in my opinion, turned out fantabulistikly,  and I so felt the passion.  I’m finding that the ol’ intuition is comming back as well……..maybe.

Piccture of the Day 03-02-09

Well, I’m  trying to post a “Photo of the Day” but maybe I should change it to Photo’S’ of the Day.  I just can’t seem to narrow it down to one favorite daily shot. I wanted a super-awesome new background to my blog .  Therefore, today’s challenge was to get a good photograph of my birthday Orchid (mission accomplished!).

It was definitely a ‘favorite flower’ kind of day.  My mother brought me my favorite daisies for the kitchen table, and I just had to shoot them! I especially  love taking closeups of plants and  flowers. Although, macro shots of plants are absolutely a joy to me, some may find the subject tiresome. If that is the case.  then go peruse flickr for neato stop actions and some over-photo shopped goodies to satisfy your pretentiousness.  Otherwise, enjoy my photos of the day and let me know what you like or don’t like (besides the subject matter).  I need input people! Wenders talks to imaginary readers cuz she haz none 🙁 .

Here are a few more of my favorites of the day.
