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!

We are almost at the end of the decent weather for the months to come. While it is still mild most of the time, we have had one snowfa...
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.

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.
