Camaraless Photowalk

I want to first start off stating that I do not live in Albuquerque, but outside of the city. So when I mention these outings to Albuquerque it is a big deal. Much like if you live outside of Boston and go into the city. Except I probably don’t have to travel that far. TodayContinue reading "Camaraless Photowalk"

An Autumnal Day Out

I mentioned the other day that my dad rode in The Day of the Tread. I think I also mentioned that we went up towards the mountains to cheer him by. It was a little farther along than half way, but we were still there. Where we were was right outside of one of theContinue reading "An Autumnal Day Out"

Finding the Brighter Side

I have continued on in Kat Sloan’s journey of Finding Your Eye. This being the journey of inspiration. The first prompt is about problem solving. I had written before, in the earlier course, that I had gone out to complete an assignment but my son was less than thrilled to be there when all wasContinue reading "Finding the Brighter Side"

Tickle Me Pink or LOL

Being as I have a boy, I don’t have many pictures with faces and pink in them. Luckily, I had this picture from the pumpkin patch. The kids are supposed to be racing. I am pretty sure Mr. B is racing himself and the little girl is an innocent (cute) bystander. His expressions tickles meContinue reading "Tickle Me Pink or LOL"

Burnt Orange

  Burnt Orange Several things about this picture. I first chose this picture because of the various burnt orange objects, like the signs and the barn. But I love how it is all about fall. I took my son to a pumpkin patch, but I think it was a little young for him. I putContinue reading "Burnt Orange"

Scavenger Hunt Sunday

Abstract A cool playground in the neighborhood across the way Round There is more about this picture in my previous post, but I also learned another new trick today. How to use Photoshop Elements actions. In this picture I used Pioneer Woman’s Boost action. Fire   Seeing faces in Unexpected Places I looked through allContinue reading "Scavenger Hunt Sunday"

Day of the Tread

Today, my (60 year old) dad rode in his first ride, for Day of the Tread. He said there was probably about 3500 people that rode. You could do 12, 26, 54, 80 or 100 miles. There was also marathons and walks. It was to benefit the Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation and Casa Esperanza inContinue reading "Day of the Tread"

A Touch of Fall in Black and White

The camera in this picture is my new prop. It is an old Kodak Brownie, movie camera. This was my first attempt at adding a little color back to a black and white picture. I am learning all sorts of new things this week. 

The Yellow Hues of Autumn

It’s one of those things. I went out to take pictures and it was so busy where I went that my creativeness got shy. If anyone in the Albuquerque area ever wants to go on a photowalk with me to the Nob Hill/UNM/Downtown area, please let me know. So I am driving along Tramway. ActuallyContinue reading "The Yellow Hues of Autumn"

Time is Relative

It was hard to pick just one photo to say it was my favorite this week. But I can share the rest another time. This clock is right outside a fire station and I love the English feel to it. I also was practicing rules of thirds with this photo and actually had the gridContinue reading "Time is Relative"
