I hope nobody takes it personal, I've hardly even been taking pictures of my own kids lately. Things are just a bit crazy- anybody want to buy a house in West Allis WI??<br /><br />I actually signed up for a photography class a few months ago and finally attended it last week. Most of what was taught I already knew (thanks to many of you!) but I did learn a few tricks but mostly I got motivated to keep working on my photography. So here I am, resolved to jump back into it.... with a post of "GOODBYE", how ironic. I really hope this isn't really a goodbye.<br /><br />Hello??? Anybody out there?<br /><br />Come on guys, it's never too late to get back into something you love.<br /><br />I LOVE these flowers. I had meant to take pictures of this flower bush in my backyard a few days ago when I noticed it was in bloom. Then when I finally did get my tush out the door with camera in hand I was momentarily disappointed to see that the flowers were dying already. I WAS sad, until I realized how beautiful and textured they had become, and how perfect the fallen petals were for creating some interesting bokeh.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDpS9SbSxahNeKHLFu7f99XrYeOvFfOX5FyvmVdYJsG4cF3HG2Wu7sDA-YzqlBchgdCgVVSEVbeY3HAYsEhJyB9zMG_ymSjsa9tqulf3velQs7uhimPXZJN1jOoXHVcPhy3Sg3YPR0SmaW/s1600/DSC_0864-ps.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5476743990016292130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDpS9SbSxahNeKHLFu7f99XrYeOvFfOX5FyvmVdYJsG4cF3HG2Wu7sDA-YzqlBchgdCgVVSEVbeY3HAYsEhJyB9zMG_ymSjsa9tqulf3velQs7uhimPXZJN1jOoXHVcPhy3Sg3YPR0SmaW/s400/DSC_0864-ps.jpg" /></a> I actually couldn't pick a favorite so I'll probably be posting more on my own blog later but this was the first one that caught my eye.<br /><br />I used aperture priority (yay! me- no automatic)<br />f/4.5<br />1/30 sec<br />AND- I pulled out my 35mm lense.

Things come and go and many of us have come and gone as well. Perhaps we can post a picture for Goodbye of our favorite one we took for m24 in the whole entire past. It could be a picture of something that you have done for m24 and havent posted or didnt make the cut. You could also just post what goodbye might me to you in any other way.</span></span><br />

I was at my parents house yesterday and was fortunately to capture the sunset peeking out between the blanket of clouds and the horizon. (First time I saw the sun all day). The only problem is the power cord running right through the shot (bottom picture). Anyway, I wanted to remove it so. But the only time I can squeeze it in is at work (too much going on after work til Monday). So I uploaded to MS Paint and use the color picker tool and just slowly removed the cable. Not the greatest job (that will happen this weekend) but I thougth good enough to share. A couple of times I got so frustrated that I thought steam would come out my ears but I made it and thank heavens I kept saving every few changes.<br />

Normally you can never see his eyes because they blend into his fur or the flash will cause them to yellow (and nothing I have found can correct the yellow and do a good job of it).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Needless to say Im sitting here in a hotel lobby in my jammies and crazy hair typing this challenge out. Good thing you dont get the morning breath with the screen :O)<br /><br />Anyhow I figured we all could post something for the word <strong><em>Favorite</em></strong>. This could be a chance for us to get to know you all a bit better my seeing some of your favorite things. It could be your favorite thing like raindrops on roses or wiskers on kitten (insert laugh here). Or it could be something that was your favorite thing that happened to you this week or of the day etc.<br /><br />Lets post by Sunday night <strong><em>April 10th at midnight PST</em></strong>B-Blogithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00748005402961990201noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8101614991278288313.post-12843618853084864762010-04-05T21:00:00.001-07:002010-04-05T21:04:45.847-07:00Easter: Flowers<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyOImibNkzTtScmBX2J3vpJlT_SckD-EtOqruBuzKPGVRXpnNmkQlbmacQBImS3aU_plGcXaRt9S0f7ZvB2P-27goKnQ5yLNtrFgKzvwIBs-qOxKJ09UW7AW_shCAaIJwcMf5lYxLh8CBO/s1600/DSC_0499.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456870353939274674" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyOImibNkzTtScmBX2J3vpJlT_SckD-EtOqruBuzKPGVRXpnNmkQlbmacQBImS3aU_plGcXaRt9S0f7ZvB2P-27goKnQ5yLNtrFgKzvwIBs-qOxKJ09UW7AW_shCAaIJwcMf5lYxLh8CBO/s400/DSC_0499.JPG" /></a> It's been awhile.
