Found this little guy on Islamorada in the keys. He was barely the size of one segment of my finger but not very scared and awfully rambunctious. The Florida keys are pretty....
A Rose By No Other

I’m in Florida. And I did something really embarrassing. One 8 x 10 print of any of my photos to the first person who guesses what that thing is (who didn’t come on the trip with...

Face

I dunno. I can never get a blurred out face not to look strange in the background. Oh well, the flower was pretty. I’ll probably post on-the-fly from my phone while I’m enjoying the holiday but more than likely it’ll be erratic. Happy Thanksgiving,...

Kay and her husband were such fun to shoot. :) I still have a bunch of xmas pics to process so they can be sent out as cards. And I have another shoot as soon as I come back from thanksgiving. I’m sure I’ll have a million shots to look through from the trip too. It’s been a...

I love mirrors in couples shots. :) Kay is celebrating her first wedding anniversary! And the mirror at Café Intemezzo is a place to have a little otherworldly fun....
Review: P’Chee...

I need to start restaurant reviewing again. I am sooo lazy. I’ve gone to so many new restaurants I wanted to review but haven’t. Well lets start with P’Cheen. So my friends and I found ourselves in the Virginia Highlands last Friday. I had an itch to try something new after being at...
Enhancements
posted by Sunira
I’m still learning how to play with some of the effects that make a photo look HDR. I find it’s a lot easier to just simulate a stronger HDR image with just 3 exposures instead of trying to take 5 or 7 and putting them together. This one below was done with just a single exposure. This...
Rain

This is an older photo from a year or two ago. I’m never outside when it’s bright enough for photos, because of work and some other stuff but I still like flipping through some of my older rain photographs. Maybe I should bring my camera and take a walk during lunch. We have a great trail...

Okay, I’m cheating by posting backwards but I did have a post for yesterday… I just forgot to publish. :) The moss and leaves are pretty fun to sit...
Between the Lines

When the seasons turn these little guys have to start coming out into the sun to heat their little bodies. They have stunning emerald green skin which they can change at will to the dark and dusty brown you see below. His eyes give away his true color though. They’re also not very scared...
Vintageish Lone Bird...

Sometimes I get the itch to make a wallpaper when mine gets old and I can’t decide on anything out on the internets. I was feeling a little hipster so … I pulled out one of my old photos and found some beautiful vintage textures, added a little color, a little blur, and a little...

You get a double feature with this post. I couldn’t help but notice how the leaves looked like fires dancing on the ashes in the evening...

“If I read a book [and] it makes my whole body so cold no fire ever can warm me, I know that is poetry. If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry. These are the only way I know it. Is there any other way?” This visceral, concrete, and...

My favourite part of fall is the huge array of vibrant color all around. Spring is honestly no match for the intensity of fall, when it comes to color. Plants especially die with the same blast of colours with which they are...

Soft Fall
posted by Sunira
I couldn’t wait to post this one because I love it so much. I took a long walk with my brother yesterday and came across some trees glowing in the setting sun. There’s just something about the dying leaves that makes them look like they’re full of life at the dusk of their existence....
Fall

I took time to walk around outside and take in the fall weather. It’s cold outside but it’s also beautiful. I’ll be featuring shots this week from the wonderful outdoors. Today you get leaves! :) This maple is just starting to turn. The orange is creeping slowly onto the leaves and...
Missy

Already featured on facebook, this little kitty is my amazing little poser. :) I feel like I need to go take photos for fun again, and get creative once more. I’m falling into producing “good” photos, something anyone with a bit of time and a good camera can do. I want to produce great...

Sweet

My dad and brother were in the area yesterday and convinced me to meet them at HMart. I hadn’t been in there in ages and did a little fruit shopping. They have these super sweet little grapes that are amazing. So naturally I bought a box. Mmmm...

A Cleaning Discovery
posted by Sunira
When I lived at home, I used to hate the menial tasks of cleaning. While the logical part of me understood that I could do just a little cleaning everyday and always have my living spaces clean, the totally-not-interested part of me liked to wait until the room looked like a tornado and then...

Don’t tell me you haven’t heard this song yet. Can you believe Willow Smith is only 10? This girl has some serious attitude for being so young. I wouldn’t expect much less from the product of Will and Jada Smith, though. And she IS the product of Will that’s for sure....

One of the fun things in my daily google reader queue is a series of comics from an artist with a sense of humor I can appreciate. Often taking cues from well known historical situations or book plots, he puts silly little twists at the end of his comics. I’ve pasted one of my...

From Photography to ...

Sometimes you want a photo to go on your wall as a piece of art. Most of our photography, is just snapshot quality, or has way too many colors in it to be a carefully curated piece that fits into your rooms’ color scheme. So that’s where Photoshop comes in. You can go from this fairly...
