An impromptu trip to Gettysburg with the family lead to me shooting a bunch of stuff. This was taken from under the Longstreet observation tower looking up from the center of the area below the steps. The cables supporting the structure require the proper tension adjustment to keep it stable and standing.

The base exposure for this image can be found here. In addition to the HDR work, the image has been extensively manipulated in CS5 to address the keystoning and to remove a substantial amount of street architecture, namely the telephone wires and street lamp and a roof aerial, and the two cars in front of the garage.
A detailed review of my processing of this image can be found here.
Hewo 52 weeks friends. Spiggs here... I apologize for my mommy not uploading a photo until this afternoon... but she has been very busy trying to secure a new home for us starting March 1st. She is also very sad today... I'm not sure why, but her eyes were quite swollen this morning, I gave her a big hug just in case she needed it...my mom Baccha was keeping her company in the house- Shes a much better snuggler than me! This photo was from yesterday after I did bite work getting ready for my Schutzhund, IPO 2 competition. I am resting by the car with my "passifier", also known as a sleeve. I love this thing alot. alot. alot. I also like fighting with our decoy- Michael. We have been learning alot these past months and my mommy seems to be pleased... which makes me feel like a team! YAH! So my face here... while I dont look excited, I am concentrating really hard on keeping my full bite on my Wubba.... because I know my momma is about to "OUT" me and put me back in my crate. I must enjoy while I can! See you next week!
"Momma" here: I apologize folks for being so absent this week, as mentioned before, I just signed a lease on a 5.5 acre horse farm and little house which I have been coordinating all week and has taken a lot of time in-between jobs and training. That said, I will be moving out as of March 1st... and I had to break the news to my 4.5 year boyfriend last night... needless to say. It has been a hard day. <-- hence my crossroads photo earlier I will catch up on comments tonight and this week, promise.
Technically... this photo is not all that great. But as Spiggs mentioned above.. his facial expression is just as he said. He's very serious when we get back to the car because he knows I will let him be for a min, then I have to out him and put him away = not his favorite. This photo does show his full bite on the sleeve that he is very good at and you can sorta see him grinning beneath the seriousness. I have great plans for this Valentines week... hint: tramp and spaghetti

Home is..... where traditions are born and memories are made. My favorite Easter tradition has always been dying eggs! I'm so happy to start making these memories with my kids, and that they will hopefully love it as much as I do! ♥
Playing with a early 1980's 35-105mm minolta lens I got off ebay and noticed that it is quite sharp and good color.The macro switch seemed to work well in this pic also.
29/52 ~EP Project 52 ~ "Soft"
First thing that came to mind when I thought of soft was a baby. Unfortunately, I had no babies available this week. Boooooo. So I thought and thought, then had my hubby think and think and nothing. LOL
Until tonight when the bulb lit up and this was the outcome. Had my asistanct (Don) drop the container about 20 times until he said "You HAVE to have a shot." Poor guy ... :)
Busy weekend. Tomorrow night a wedding rehearsal and then Saturday a full day wedding coverage. Then on Sunday, it's my great niece in front of the camera for her 4 year old session.
Wishing everyone and safe and happy weekend.
Hugs

Monday 13th August- Monday 20th August
It's been hot. Very very hot. Wonderfully so. So hot in fact that everything was put on hold and days were spent lounging around with ice cream.
The weekend arrived and it was still hot- beach weather. The boyfriend and I went down to a west facing beach Saturday evening, had a picnic, swam in the sea and took far too many photos of the sun setting over the sea. A pinhole lens had arrived for me and it was time to experiment! Cider on the beach. Bliss...

Week seventeen
In my two hands, it rested. My heart spoke in a language that I was not familiar with, but understood perfectly. I shouldn't have touched this, I shouldn't have even considered opening this box. Because this particular box is a key to misery, illnesses, and constant suffering. Unfortunate for me, I am not able to control my curiosity; held hostage under my own traits. My fingers trembled to the beating of my heart. I shouldn't, t shouldn't. I knew this was wrong, I knew I was going to regret this, but again, curiosity took over, and I was on the edge of giving in. Blood rushed through my veins, and the oxygen was draining through the holes in my lungs. My fingers continued to dance to the haunting melody that reverberated in my ears. Then it happened.

I over think things too much, and I'm always looker for a deeper meaning. during this week i realized that thinking causes headaches ( great discovery, isn't it? :D). and in order to grow, to live, you have to just breathe. And i forgot how .

constructive criticism is accepted :)
Well this is quite an experimentation for me! I took some quick photos of a field of yellow flowers (that I've always thought were called Indian paintbrushes - I don't think they are), but they turned out very dull. So I let GIMPressionist turn it into an Impressionist-like painting! It's not up to the quality of the experts like JTH in the make new mistakes group (and aren't the identical clouds obvious?!), but it sure looks better to me than the original (see below).
