Photowalking, Bountiful... AGAIN!

The one problem with being a busy mom/employee/daughter/wife/friend/photography student, is that I don't have an hour to drive somewhere to walk around. I take walks when I can, armed with my camera, but it seems I only walk in two places: Sunset, and Bountiful. But the one thing I am learning is that things seem to have been unchanged, but if you look closely, they have changed a lot! Like these tomato plants below; they are just small now, but in a few weeks, will have buds, and in a few months will be heavy with fruit. You just have to change how you see it.

Still, I itch for new photowalks. :D We're headed to 25th street sometime this month for such a goal.

Enjoy!

Don't these weeds look so tall? Like the trail goes to places unknown? They were only knee high, I love the angle. Such mystery.

Themed Post: May - Tulips!

Thanks to Weber State for taking the time to care for such beautiful flowers. I had a blast; there were so many too! :D

Themed Post: May -- Blossoms

I'm up late posting tonight, but I needed something positive, something to bring my negative train-of-thought to a screeching halt. I especially love the second red one, it reminds me of my wedding dress. *sigh*



Enjoy!

Themed Photos

I have been going through stages lately of what I want to photograph, and with a new camera, I feel less hindered by film and not wanting to hit that shutter button. Now I just snap, snap, snap all the time. After all, ONE of my memory cards hold 415 pictures (and my camera holds two at a time)!! So whenI see something worth taking a picture of (aka anything within range) I am not hesitant to shoot it from 4 or 5 different angles.

So! I have decided to make a theme for each month. I think it will go well, seeing as how many flowers have been in bloom. So obviously, May will be: Flowers! This is a good theme, I think, because after all, April Showers Bring May Flowers. It didn't rain a lot in April (snowed, though!)... but if it had I would consider "rain" as a theme for April.

My goal with the Theme Project is to look at the obvious with a different eye. The first few might be obvious, but they will improve!

***If you have any suggestions for themes or what you'd like to see, let me know, and I'll incorporate it. I am a little lost after this month for themes, but I'm thinking of some: Metal, Fire, Cars, Reflections, Wood, Water, Senior Portraits/Graduation (this one might be good for June), Etc. Let me know your suggestions!***

Macro: Flowers

There are two reasons I got a telephoto lens with my package: One, portraits. Two: Macro Macro Macro. I love close-up pictures but with a point and shoot its difficult to obtain quality.

I love my new lens! Woot!

Flora and Fauna

I love walks. You never know what you are going to find. Enjoy a taste of my too short although long walk.
