Dual Reflections

I took this just after I finished shooting a little cemetery that I happened upon. Pop over to that link, if you have time, and see if you know the answer to my question about the coins.

I got a new hat!

More Christmas Bokeh.

All Wrapped Up

Cloudscome tagged me for a Christmas wrapping meme. I confessed to her that I was not much of a wrapper. So, I snapped a shot of the presents under the tree (yes, Equus put one up!) that were given to us.

I will wrap our presents, probably tonight, but they won't look this pretty.

Another Perfectly Grey Day

I suppose I should settle in for more than a few of these days. It's amazing all the structure and shape I see now that the leaves and color have left us.

Neighbor's House, Through Our Window

Another Christmas Extra: Poinsettias

I took these Saturday, at my favorite local gardens. I was going to wait, and eventually get all my shots from that day up on The Amped Eye, but I realize these are nice for the week before Christmas.

(And also, now Sharon will know what the heck I am talking about from a comment I left on her blog.:) )

Breakfast of Champions

First picture with Canon, second with trusty Nikon which kills on macro shots (IMO)!

Another Christmas Extra: My Neighbor's Lights

An Aesthetic Gloom

I woke this morning to fog and water droplets everywhere. I took so many shots of the berries on these trees that it will take me a while to sift, sort, and process them all. I also shot very wet tall grasses, red maple, azalea, and pines. It was so wonderful to be completely absorbed in the details of life that way, and first thing in the morning. Methinks there can never be too many water droplets for me, at least not yet.

I'll post all the other shots on The Amped Eye, as I get through them.

A Beautiful Invasion

The entire series is on The Amped Eye.

A Christmas Extra: Zoom

We don't normally have a Christmas tree, and definitely not since entering the world of retail, but we do have a couple of very small, artificial trees that my girl likes to set up sometimes, because she likes things like that.

I came home last night and found she had set one up in her room. It gave me a chance to take some pretty light shots, and to play with zooming out on a slow shutter speed. Fun.
