Pause

After finishing 2009 my intention was to go full steam into my new projects this year.   That said, I have decided to take a bit of a break.   I am not finding myself feeling very creative and my efforts have really felt forced.    I am going to step back for a while, hopefully not very long, and see if I can get my photographic mojo going again.    I may be shooting off and on in the interim but I probably won't be posting much, if at all, for a while.

I would appreicate it if those of you who are following me will stick with me.   I will be back; just not sure when yet.   

See Ya Soon!

Read The Fine Print

Camera Model: Canon EOS 7D
Exposure: 0.013 sec (1/80)
Aperture: f/4.0
Focal Length: 55 mm
ISO: 100


Trying to get my photographic mojo back (I haven't shot for several days) I decided to shoot something even if it wasn't something that I would normally shoot. Grabbed these toy glasses, from my son's harry potter halloween costume, and grabbed the latest assessment paperwork from my from my 'friendly' county assessor. Came up with this. My thoughts on it were 'Read the Fine Print' so that is the Title I gave it. I actually sort of like the result. Though I am feeling like these canned lightroom presets are sort of cheating :P.

Hay In A Field

This is an old shot I am processing now because I haven't really shot anything in a couple of days. I should be back and active again on Flickr tomorrow or the next day or so :) I'll catch up with my flickr friends in the next few days.

I am actually an hour or so early (my time zone) for this one but tis ok. On Jan 7 International Programmers Day will be recognized. I can't really see much from the web site other than the ability to send an ecard out to your favorite programemmer :). In any case now you know as much as I do about International Programmers Day.

It seems, as obscure as it is, Bean Day is not without it's controversy. Some say Bean Day is not until April, Some claim it to be January 6th. But at least one source has it squarely on the 5th. So as I move down the road with my This Day in History/Calendar Event project it seemed appropriate to bring to your attention the celebration of Bean Day. Now Go eat your vegtables! :P
