Yesterday I assisted in shooting a wedding which was a very intense and amazing experience. I feel like I learned a lot and I saw the behind the scenes of a wedding. The couple was a perfect match and I could tell that they would last (which made photographing the wedding all the more rewarding).
Woot! That was my first paid gig! Everything is coming up Kelsey!
Annnnywhoooo, I'm super pooped so this photo is kind of half-assed and I'm sorry but I hope you enjoy it. Hopefully I'll update my tumblr later tonight...
Due to sensitive concern on the original title, I now just keep it neutral. Explore highest position: 23 on Wednesday, March 18, 2009

A Slinky is a toy pre-compressed helical spring invented by Richard James.
It can perform a number of tricks, including travelling down a flight of steps end-over-end as it stretches and re-forms itself with the aid of gravity and its own momentum,
In 1943, Richard James, a naval mechanical engineer stationed at the William Cramp and Sons shipyards in Philadelphia, was developing springs that could support and stabilise sensitive instruments aboard ships in rough seas.
James accidentally knocked one of the springs from a shelf, and watched as the spring "stepped" in a series of arcs to a stack of books, to a tabletop, and to the floor, where it re-coiled itself and stood upright.
James's wife Betty later recalled, "He came home and said, 'I think if I got the right property of steel and the right tension; I could make it walk.'"
James experimented with different types of steel wire over the next year, and finally found a spring that would ‘walk’.
Betty was dubious at first, but changed her mind after the toy was fine-tuned and neighbourhood children expressed an excited interest in it.
She dubbed the toy Slinky; meaning "sleek and graceful”.
On COLOURS...
Light and colour can influence how people perceive the area around them. Different light sources affect how the colours of walls and other objects are seen. Specific hues of colours seen under natural sunlight may vary when seen under the light from an incandescent (tungsten) light-bulb: lighter colours may appear to be more orange or "brownish" and darker colours may appear even darker.
Light and the colour of an object can affect how one perceives its positioning. If light or shadow, or the colour of the object, masks an object's true contour (outline of a figure) it can appear to be shaped differently than it really is.
Objects under a uniform light-source will promote better impression of three-dimensional shape.
The colour of an object may affect whether or not it seems to be in motion. In particular, the trajectories of objects under a light source whose intensity varies with space are more difficult to determine than identical objects under a uniform light source.
Carl Jung is most prominently associated with the pioneering stages of colour psychology. Jung was most interested in colours’ properties and meanings, as well as in Art’s potential as a tool for psychotherapy.
Colour has long been used to create feelings of cosiness or spaciousness. However, how people are affected by different colour-stimuli varies from person to person.
There is evidence that colour preference may depend on ambient temperature. People who are cold prefer warm colours like red and yellow while people who are hot prefer cool colours like blue and green.
A few studies have shown that cultural background has a strong influence on colour preference. These studies have shown that people from the same region regardless of race will have the same colour preferences.
I'm ALWAYS fascinated by COLOUR!
Hope this brings a smile again, have a good day and thanks for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)

Onoclea sensibilis, sensitive fern, at the wooded end of the marsh at Bidgood's Park, Goulds, Newfoundland and Labrador. The ferns' fronds were standing upright and the high angle of the sun allowed both sides of the fronds to be lit at the same time!
It doesn't take much to tip me off my perch of cautious confidence down to raging insecurity. Taking pictures to please other people, other people who might pay you is terrifying. What once was a camera that you adored, felt at home and familiar with, that helped you to realise images in your head suddenly becomes this un co-operative, petulant child. Suddenly all the controls have been moved, all the settings thrown out. Buttons which were once found without conscious thought are now fumbled for. I feel like the harassed mother in a supermarket with a tantrum throwing child. At this point no-one but me knows how bad the photographs might be. The worst part is hearing that voice on the telephone after they have received your apologetic CD of images. Heightened senses listen for the 'verdict' and there it is; just a hint of disappointment in the tone of voice, a feeling that previously only a parent could transmit so subtly yet so powerfully is now resurrected by the client. The sinking stomach of failure descends.
Within seconds of the conversation, in fact whilst it is still going on, emergency alternative career thoughts are churning in my mind; become a three legged German butler, peep show booth cleaner, scrap metal dealer, scrap tampon dealer, apply for Big Brother - Ok that's enough, I shall give photography another try.
If you keep watching, you'll find what you're looking for. #closeup #macro #softfocus #portrait #photography #Capture #Saturated #Fascinating #DigitalPhotography #Nice

At the Grants picnic ground in the Dandenong Ranges.
Wonderful atmosphere with lots of bird life. I was hoping to get some wildlife shots but they were just flying around too fast for me to get a nice shot. I liked the composition in this one though. Not sure why everything is so soft but maybe I stopped down too much? This lens seems to be really sensitive to the aperture, really need to take note of it!

Sensitive fern is such a beauty and when they're lit like this on a quiet backwater, I have to go in with the camera.
A variety of fresh cherries on display at the Portland Farmers Market. The pile in front are "Rainier" cherries. This species was developed in 1952 at Washington State University. Rainier's are considered a premium type of cherry. They're sweet with a thin skin and thick creamy-yellow flesh. The cherries are very sensitive to temperature, wind, and rain. About 1/3 of a Rainier cherry orchard's crop is eaten by birds.
My moody boy....sensitive and cautious always, but more so when there is a clicking camera nearby. His fur is that dark gray that is difficult to photograph clearly. So, he is my moody and dark kitty...and what a surprise to see this yawn in a series of quick snaps..lol #cy365#captureyour365#darkandmoody#JAXson
