Daily Photos 2007

12/30 This is a new French Press that I got for Christmas. If you've never tried making coffee this way, I highly recommend it!

12/29 Another football night at Matt's House. The Pats won.

12/26 This is my nephew, Anderson, with his Sister Katelyn on Christmas.

12/25 This is my parent's new cat, Izzy. She's less than a year old and has some awesome colors, spots and stripes. She was apparently very interested in my camera. Everyone had something Christmassy on their DP site, so I just put a nice portrait of the cat. Look for something from Christmas tomorrow.

12/24 This is a picture of my cat, who found his way into my box spring mattress.

12/23 I found two interesting subjects and put them together. It's not very colorful, but I like the composition and lines. Tell me what you think!

12/22 Playing with Fire I sat on the couch today, so I have no excuse for not taking a good picture. This one is bad and grainy, but I thought it was cute, so I put it on anyhow.

12/21 The non-glowing orb on a stand. This is just a candle stand that I had around the house. I tried some different lighting to make it more interesting. I used the base of a Lava Lamp and put a piece of glass on top. I've done this before HERE and HERE

12/21 Cardboard Close Up.

12/20 Floating Ice in a really good Cognac. Yum. Looks like a little cognac mushroom cloud.

12/18 My New Fleece jacket. It's very soft and fuzzy.

12/17 I wasn't sure if this could be a "guess what it is" photo or not. Is it too easy to guess?

12/14 Fall Frost I've been bad at taking a photo a day lately. I've been randomly taking pictures, but haven't had many I liked. This is one I took 2 days ago on my way to work. It was early and there was frost on the ground, as well as some snow from the day before. I thought the fog in the distance looked cool through the trees. I wish it was sunny though.

12/9 Kristina is one of those people that you just can't get a good picture of. Out of 12 photos that I took last night, this one came out really well. It's not hard to make her laugh, but it is hard to get her to keep her eyes open while she's laughing. You should see some of the others, they were so bad. I used my new flash with this one.

12/8 The Circle of Life... or just an onion ring? Things that make you go hmmm.... Think about that one! I'm feeling very sarcastic today.

12/7 Playing with my flash again. The cat has been my main subject, and he's beginning to catch on. When he sees the camera come out, he usually runs away. I had to catch him sleeping. This isn't a great picture in my opinion, but I was busy with work today.

12/6 I bought a new flash today. (Canon Speedlite 430EX) I was playing with it by taking pictures of my dinner. Yep, those are ramen noodles at 11 cents a pack. How do you think I could afford the flash?

12/3 Just a Candle.

12/2 I got so excited about the first snow we had this morning, that I decided to post two pictures today. Both of them are sort of Monochrome in nature, but it was a dreary, cloudy day, so that was to be expected.

12/1 MIA is Missing? No Shit... Today is the first chance I had to catch up on this weeks news. I've been at work for 12 to 16 hours a day since last Sunday. Thankfully, the holiday season is great for overtime money. The one headline caught my attention. There's more to it that actually makes sense, but I left that part out to make the picture more interesting.

11/30 Maybe I will get a high rating for this picture. Maybe not... I think it's better than anything else I've taken over the past week. It's been a busy week at work, but I finally had time this morning to set up a little shot, instead of just shooting whatever I can at work. I think the repetition in this shot is cool. However, I feel that it's a touch underexposed.

11/29 There was a really cool moon tonight. I wasn't able to capture the really cool looking clouds that surrounded it though. I wanted to capture the detail of the moon, with just a hint of the stratus clouds surrounding the moon, but I just couldn't get it without overexposing the moon. Any suggestions on how to do this?? (Other than photoshopping the clouds in...)

11/28 The ghosts were at yesterday's rehearsal, and today the Angels got their wings. I was stuck in the back of the house during most of the rehearsals, so I had to use long shutter speeds with a telephoto lense, but I got some half decent shots. I really like the colors in this one.
