ABQ Zoo

My cousin’s daughter turned 5 on Wednesday so they came up so we could go to the zoo today. I tried to get some awesome pictures but the animals weren’t feeling too show-offy today or were still a little in the winter sleepy mode. Except for the polar bears. They were playing a show offContinueContinue reading “ABQ Zoo”

Macro Friday

I take a lot of my shots in Macro mode because I am still figuring out Manual. But I do take a few that really look like they were in Macro mode. Here is my share for this week.

Photo Challenge {Beverage}

The challenge this week with is beverage. I didn’t get a picture of my favorite beverage, but rather a picture of the dog bowl being filled up. They sure enjoyed =). I used the vignette feature in Picnik to soften the edges a little and love how the water stream comes out of no where.

Shoot and Edit| Week 9: Yellow SOOC

Happy Monday| Texture

Not in this semi desert area. I sought out some flowers to take pictures of today…at Lowe’s. There isContinueContinue reading “Desperately Seeking Spring”

iHeart Faces: Best Face of February

I know this is my second post today, but since I wasn’t following the rules on iHeart Faces before I want to make sure I only post 1 picture for the challenge. I have become a photo challenge maniac. It helps me take pictures and think outside the box. My 365 Days of Photos projectContinueContinue reading “iHeart Faces: Best Face of February”

I recently found Ramblings and Photos with Ashley Sisk. Every week she hosts . I thought it would be a good idea to play along, another reason for me to make sure I take pictures. It was fun trying to figure out what to do for each item. 1. Diptych I was out driving theContinueContinue reading “Scavenger Hunt Sunday”
