Gah! I was up until 3:00a this morning transferring files and installing software on my new PC. Not sure I am too crazy about Windows 7, time will tell. Anyway, I was in the mood for a little color, some light and a whole lot of bokeh, so here you go! Flower under fire!

Another dried flower image, I love the muted tones in this one. The name of the shot for today’s post is appropriate for more than one reason: I bought a new computer this afternoon! My current PC is more than 4 years old and has about a half GB of RAM which is not nearly [...]

I enjoy shooting everyday things around the house and bringing them to life with my macro lens. With just a little imagination, ordinary objects can be made to look extraordinary.

Took this macro shot at the beginning of last month and processed it today. Not sure what kind of flower this is, but it captured my attention. Our weather has been beautiful the last couple of days so I’ve been out with the camera. 2nd day of November, and I have over 200 shots to [...]
After the battle.

First of November and the meadows are looking more brownish. These dead daisies looked to me as though they had been through a war, tattered and ravaged on the battlefield.
