First Shot

First Shot

I had a nice little 6.9 mile walk today. Of course I should have walked more just to get it to 7, but oh well. Too late now (and I do have another mile of walking to do soon.)

This is a slightly different First Shot for today, perhaps to become part of my “Personalitrees” series. I see faces. Do you? One large. One small. Take a step back. See what you find! There might even be more. I made two other photos of this, and one of them might be better, but this is the FIRST so I dare not put a different one up as a first shot. After all, I cannot tell a lie!

Okay … that was a lie. I most certainly can tell a lie. I just prefer not to. 🙂

Yosemite

Just a Couple of Yosemite Shots

As Dan and I were enjoying a nice brunch following my four oboe students of the morning we were talking about Yosemite and the ways we each frequently see things with our cameras: sometimes it’s in a similar fashion, but more often than not it’s differently. Much of the time I’m crouched on the ground, or using the macro very close up to something while he’s capturing some stupendous and unbelievable “all of it” shot. (He amazes me!) The conversation caused me to look back on Yosemite photos I have that I’ve simply not had time to work on, and I came upon these two which I like.

Now I want to start looking more at last year’s Yosemite work, but I’m trying to be a good girl, sticking to an orderly manner of sorting month-by-month. We’ll see if I manage to stick to this!
