Running as Fast as I Can
What to do about the catch-up on the 365 project! I am about 50 shots behind and every day that I dither about the numbering puts me farther down. For now, I am hurling up bits of stuff that I did not have time to get to before Christmas. I also have a project going to clean old family photos that I picked up when we went to visit JG's mother over the holiday. Rejigging battered prints is a long, slow job, however and I know I will be slow posting those. So, for now, the pickup bits and, if my damn internet connection will just pick up some speed, throwing a whole pile onto Picassa. Then, when I see where I'm at, maybe ask for permission to jump.
118/365 Copper windchimes. Again, trying to capture the light and mood.
119/365 An icy twig where I played with the colour values. A lot!
120/365 Dainty pawprints on the marsh.
121/365 The Christmas Pointsettia. Not enough depth of field.
122/365 Our land is pure Canadian shield, with lots of outcroppings. I particularly like this one that gets afternoon light.
123/365. Christmas Tree bird with the new camera. My living room is painted a sort of 'cloud' gray. Very useful for this kind of shot.
And, last but not least,
124/365, So nice to come back inside and warm the fingers and toes. I do not have a clue why Blogger stretched this shot vertically. Rats!

I am looking out at a grey afternoon with low cloud and fine, fine snow showering down. More of a November feel to it than pre–Christmas De...
the twig shot is really cool, as well as the bird in the tree. oh, i long to sit by a fire and read a book! in the new house I plan to have lots of fires!
ReplyDeleteOooo, I like those footprints on the marsh a lot. Remember, you don't have to catch up. You just need to jump in.
ReplyDeletekeep it up--you'll make it. I love the bird shot and the twig shot too--as well as the pawprints in the snow. Blogger has messed with a lot of my pictures too.
ReplyDeletei like the poinsettia! and the twig. :)
ReplyDeleteI like them all but the cosy fire looks inviting! I'd like to sit in front of that. I like the little bird on the Christmas tree and the twig is very dramatic against that background.

Nuts in May
I checked the original of the fireplace. Weird.
ReplyDeleteWhen you said "clean old family photos" did you mean that literally or were you referring to digital restoration?
I like the poinsettia--the red is so wonderful--and the Christmas bird against the gray wall. The gold of the bird and the green tree needles really pop.
