Too much sharpness in a photo can be a sign of indecision, lack of commitment, or a complete lack of intentional subject. Not always, but sometimes. Have an intent and stick to it. Commit and execute.
Then there's focus stacking... are you a graphic artist, or a photographer? Or are you in some vague "no man's land" in between?
I'm not judging, I don't care what your answer is, I'm just suggesting that you consider the distinction.
I prefer camera time to computer time, I find many of the limitations of photography to be freeing.
Cod Rock, Belcarra, BC.
I took a chance on catching an epic sunset at a park that closes the gates at 9pm. The light didn't get anywhere close to what I was hoping for before I had to get out or risk being locked in.
This is a view of our IKEA Lack shelves before I committed to my art work. New photos coming soon!

So this was the year I decided to just go all out.......TOTALLY commit to my Christmas Cat themed Christmas, right down to the outfit I decided to put on Christmas afternoon.
On a normal year I might have slipped the socks under a pair of pants ,or maybe worn the crazy leggings with a solid color top if I was going to a friends house that knew me, or maybe just the sweater (which lights up!) with a pair of jeans........but I thought this was a year to make a fashion statement in the privacy of my own home that truly embraces who I really am!
Spotted this sign in Great Guildford Street, Southwark. I believe the origin goes back to the days before there was proper plumbing in most pubs and houses, and men would er.. relieve themselves in public.

A day in the Life :
He (naughtily pulling out his flintlock):
“Let’s have the Pearls then Luv!”
She ( Coyly):
“Read the sign dear sir”
He (After first Looking back):
“But this is not nuisance, it is business”
She ( Wryly) :
“Business, dear sir?”
He (deftly) :
“Yes.. Supply and demand, I demand and you supply?”
She (archly):
“I thought the Phrase was ‘stand and deliver’?”
He (teasingly):
I Know, But I am adlibbing”
She ( sweetly)
“Please try and stay on script Dear Sir, It makes things so much easier!”
He ( Gallently):
“Ok, let me try it again from the top”
She (puckishly):
“Later my good man, first lets re-holster that pistol of yours and break for lunch, I am famished” Meet back here in couple of hours?
He ( Bowing rather subdued ):
“Alright than, in a cuppa my fair lady!”

A Rather exuberant thank you to the ever perky Teddi for patiently waiting these many months to get together for a photo shoot, It turned out splendidly if I do say so…
Hopefully we can get together and do it again..

Drive at the University of Houston Main Campus was one of four drives held on the Tuesday after Hurricane Ike hit the Gulf Coast.
We have Sandhill Cranes at the old folks neighborhood. They're pretty tame. And prone to hooliganism.
As for the poor quality, I only shot this as evidence for the grand jury. And to see how close they'd let me get. As you can see - really tame. 😜

There's so many reasons not to jump for what you want out of life, but sometimes in order to do amazing things you have to go for it.

Woke up today wit what might be the flu, or what might be killer allergies. Had to skip class from coughing and junk. :/
My birthday is on the 29th and I'm starting to feel old. My roommate and best friend keeps asking me what I want to do for it and I just cringe. I feel like a child...
All I Want for my birthday is to feel better and not be old. Hopefully I get one of those things... I'm not getting any younger...
I went to the ortho yesterday to start getting set up for braces. I have known I'd need them for awhile but just haven't had the balls to commit. Unluckily the orth and my specialist think that I might need surgery as well... I don't know how I feel about an even moe INVASIVE procedure especially after dealing with the pain braces are going to cause (usually you get much worse before getting better) but I can just tell them no. I'm just affraid that if I do so, they'll refuse to treat me and I'll have to go find yet another doctor that I feel comfortable with and as you all may well know, it costs to visit doctors and I don't have dental insurance annnnd evenif I did all freaking insurance (medical or dental) have TMJ exclusions ... sigh. My body really chose oneof hte dumbest things o have wrong with it ;/
saturday afternoon wanderings reveal
sights, sounds and smells aplenty
to excite the senses,
the strange and the familiar
enter the conciousness,
new memories born.

A short-eared owl goes in for the kill. Detecting activity under the snow while soaring 20-30 feet above is quite a remarkable testament to the SEO's acute hearing ability.

Our Daily Challenge - Commit
196:365
The problem with a 365 is you run out of steam and ideas and then it kind of runs flat . . . . . so I try my hardest to come up with different stuff, but alas on the day I have to show real commitment I come up with sneakers on my tiled passage - I know you've seen this before ~ but hey I'm still in the game - and this year (bar crazy beyond control circumstances) I'm going to finish it!
