What:
Old Antique 1949 Chev
Where:
Somewhere along the south shore of Nova Scotia, Canada
When:
Last weekend, Dec.14,2008
About the shot:
I met up with Sadegh and Terry Sunday morning to take a drive along the south shore to do a little bit of shooting. The weather and lighting condition weren't great for photos really but it was good to get out with a couple of the guys from the photoclub and figured we could scout a few spots for future outings. Well eagle-eyed Terry spotted an old car next to a farmhouse so of course we stopped to check it out.
While we we're shooting the cars (this isn't the one visible from the road, it was in the back yard) the neighbor came over and chatted we us for a while. He told us that the fella drove this up until last year when his passed away. Sad really. It made me think that they may have had this car when they we newly-weds almost 60 years ago. Imagine the places they must have been to during the years driving along in this old Chevy.
What I learned:
When you plan to go shoot something in particular keeps your eyes open and camera ready because often the best shots aren't the ones you originally planned to take.
You:
I appreciate all comments, tips, questions & faves! No need for glitzy awards, your "real" comments are much better!

Getting ready for a run. This is yours truly putting on her trusty trainers for a weekend run. Used a tiny tripod and self-timer. I'm really into long distance running and I do think my health benefits from it.
Inspired by an article in Digital SLR Photography Magazine (October 2013 issue) - the article explained how to photograph bubbles and make them look like planets! :-) This is my first attempt. Considering I have to improvise with my lighting as I don't have a softbox, I think this turned out quite well!
