I sit next to her and listen to her practice. Next time I must remember to tell her that it is one of my favorite things to do. She is typical of a girl her age, reluctant to get practicing, but once she does, she enjoys it. I can see that it is an outlet for her. It touches a part of her that makes her carefree and happy. It touches the same part of me to sit and listen. We are made to make music.

Thank you looking!

Each night after we practice the spelling words we give a mock test. Then, we go over which ones he got right and which ones he missed. As the week progresses, he gets more and more of the words correct. His face lights up when he notices that he's improving.
This is an attempt at a little different processing technique.

Dolce says this is vacation, why are we practicing tricks!? Here Dolce is practicing a trick where we are teaching him to eventually be able to walk backwards and then put his hind legs on the wall. This helps teach back end awareness. At home, we have a padded board and started at a really low angle, increasing the angle as he gets comfortable and eventually removing the board and angle all together.

I had fun yesterday using SculpeyIII. I need to practice making these a bit smaller, and use longer pins and then I'm "going into business" hopefully selling these at my local quilt shop. (Too bad the owner hasn't even heard of my plan yet. LOL)

One thing that I tend to forget when taking pictures is that I need to pay attention to what the model is wearing, as there are times when I have come home and looked at the pictures and have noticed that the clothes are not straight and have way to many creases or as with this image, the jewellery has turned round. I really hate that...lol just wanted to get that out my system...lol
With this one I have added the purple round the eyes, changed the colour of the lips and nails too. Once I did that I took it back to lightrooms and made some basic adjustments.

I recently acquired a, quite rare, Rollinear no2 close-up accessory for my Rolleiflex 2.8F twin lens reflex camera. The Rolleinar comprises two auxillary lenses. One lens fits over the main taking lens of the camera and allows closer focusing. A second lens, with a prism, fits over the camera's viewing lens and allows you to focus correctly and compensates for parallax.
Normally, the closest focusing distance of the 80mm Xenotar taking lens is about 1m. With the Rolleinar no2 attached, it will focus in the range 33cm to 50cm. You can also get a weaker Rolleinar no1 or a stronger Rolleinar no3. Using a Rolleinar drastically reduces DOF.
This picture is from my first roll using the Rolleinar no2.
This young Bald Eagle stretches it's wings and practices flight in the safety of it's nest. There are three young eagles in this nest, which is getting pretty crowded as they have grown as large as their parents, who continually bring food back to the nest (I've observed them bring fish, ducks and many turtles back to feed the eaglets)
