Taken from the ferry with Ketron Island in the foreground, this lens finally does justice to just how immense Mt. Rainier looks. - taken with Tamron 150-600 lens
Determined to take one photo (at least) per week in 2021. This is from our normal lockdown walk in Yarnfield, Staffordshire, UK
She's not self-absorbed
Such a pain in the "patootie" when your kid can read you like a book. Especially when I'm right smack dab in the middle of a "fake it til you make it" slump. What's wrong, mama...it's not anything I did, is it?..."
We are so much alike, but it's definitely an added responsibility when your kid is in your head...
#dogwood2017 week1 story telling with rule of thirds
sweat and inle lake water :)
CC very very welcomed:P
This is a blatant lie, but I thought I might convince myself if I wrote it down ;-)
Thanks, Nance! I'm still having a lot of fun with these images :D
It's been a while since I've participated in any Flickr group on a regular basis. A few years ago, life started getting in the way and life kinda snowballed. However, I decided this year might give me enough time to dip my toe back in the water. The past three years or so I've been taking pictures mostly of and for friends and family. I enjoy it, but I also miss getting out on my own and simply photographing things that catch my eye. I'm hoping being in this 52 weeks group helps change that.
I really think adhering to the themes will help push me to improve my skills. In the past, I didn't often follow the suggested themes when I played in 52 or 365 groups. In fact, some of you may remember the year I did an entire 52 week project photographing beer. I can't promise you that beer won't make an appearence at some point during the year, but I am pushing myself to wander outside my comfort zone with this project and try to do things that are new to me.
This is my take on the "abstract" theme of week 1. Like some of you have already done, I noticed the Christmas lights that I hadn't yet taken down and thought that might be something worth playing with. To achieve this photo, I planted my camera on the tripod in front of the tree and set a long exposure with a 2 second timer. I then rotated the camera through the long exposure, which created the circular effect. I found that 2-3 seconds was a good enough time to get a nice rotation on the camera. I adjusted the contrast, exposure and color temp in post processing, and here we go. I hope you like it.

I needed a new point and shoot. Something I could have on me at all times. As we know the trusty phone cameras are not all they are cracked up to be. This bad boy is waterproof, cold proof up to 14 degrees F, and can be used in the ocean! Very excited to see what I can do with it this year!
-Nuclear Medicine Injection
-Bone Scan with SPECT
-Whole Body Bone Scan
This test is used to examine your bones and joints. It can show conditions that are not seen using X-Rays
Scan arranged for 8th January following an MRI scan 2 days before. Soon it will become apparent what new beginnings are in store...
I often play the one word game instead of making a resolution or two or three. This year it was easy to chose.
Clarity, in keeping with 2020 vision. Pun intended.
I can use this word to focus, and clearly define what is essential. Family, friends, and health are always priorities. The question I ask myself is how can I use this word, clarity, to help me decide what has meaning and value in my life? Here’s to being uncomplicated yet explicit. And, to experience as many sunsets as possible.
A stack of books on a rainy miserable day equals good intentions for this year. The piano hiding in the background is another of my good intentions. I'm not sure I'll get to that one this year.
The first of my 52 weeks project.
&just a side note, that rainbow appeared because i was shooting through a window, its not edited in.
I joined another 52 project. During the winter, we get no sunlight at my house and I tend to not even want to pull my camera out, but I'm hoping this will inspire me.
One of my resolutions for 2012 is to try and take more photos of my boys together. When I look through my albums these pictures are the ones I most cherish, seeing them playing together so happy.
