Return to Life

I hope all of you had a great holiday weekend.  It was a busy one for me with work, photos and enjoying the company of friends. Yesterday we went over to "Happy Hour" with some pals and I took the opportunity to photograph their lovely garden.  It was a warm, sunny afternoon filled with beer,...

25 Favorites 2010

  It took me a bit to decide which ones to include, I take a lot of photos.  Here are my 25 favorites from my flickr account. enjoy! Trina

Digital Pinhole Experiment

Today I dusted off my tripod and experimented with my Digital Pinhole Body Cap which is another gem from Photojojo. I wanted this gadget because I like the subtle look and feel of a pinhole image.  There are many ways to build a pinhole camera and I have made a few film cameras myself.  However,...

Bokeh Master!

Over the holiday I played around with one of my Xmas presents,  the Bokeh Kit from Photojojo.  It came with 21 different shapes to add these neat effects to your photos.  As you know, if you read this blog regularly, I LOVE bokeh and shallow depth of field. I had made my own contraption for...

Snowflake Light

We went off to St. Louis to celebrate the holidays.  The trip was quite snowy on the way there but we made it safely.  I took this photo from inside the house looking out at this giant tree.  I took several versions, however, I like the way the snowflake light is reflecting off the window...

Sticks & Streams

I was out running errands this morning and the sun made a very brief appearance so I thought I would stop by the Baker Wetlands and snap a few shots.  The creek was iced over and there were some spots of color along the banks that I wanted to bring out. In order to create...

A Whisper

I had an idea to take a photo using my ring light on my Nikon D80.  I liked the way the light was hitting these little Baby's Breath and the ring light added just the right amount of light to take out the yellow cast of my kitchen lights.  I will definitely utilize this gadget...

Window Light

While I was at the grocery store today I was looking for some flowers to photograph.  The selection was sparse so I decided on these pink carnations.  At least I think that's what they are.  I put them in a vase and set them in front of my kitchen window.  Of the 15 or so...

Thursday Photo Walk

A quick share from my afternoon photo walk.  It was 50 degrees with no wind today so I decided to take advantage and get outside.  I took along my Nikon d80 and my Canon AE1 so I could finish off a roll of film.  I am quite excited to get the film developed and see...

My Goodness, My Bokeh!
