Photo a Day

Back in January I made a New Year’s resolution to try to keep up with the photo-a-day on pBase… I didn’t make it too far… Figured I’d start trying again in hopes I can keep it up while Mike has to travel next year…

This is one of the last leaves on our weeping cherry tree out front. I love the colors these leaves turn.

Interesting observation from saving this in Photoshop CS4 – the Save for Web is supposed to give you options as to how much metadata you want left on the image – no mater what I chose, it stripped it all so apparently there is a bug there somewhere.

This little guy has been hanging out at my desk all morning… He really is little despite how intimidating he might look in the macro shot… he’s lucky he wasn’t hanging out around my mom’s computer – he’d be squashed and flush…

While he was great entertainment, I decided he had to go outside when he decided to try spelunking down into my tea…

I love my little Canon SD800IS

Today after mass we went to get Jon a haircut before school starts Wednesday and then stopped at a local farm for some veggies and ice cream cones.

Afterwards I walked a bit around the farm and found this Thistle and Bumblebee.. All I had with me was my little PS Canon SD800IS but loved how the shot came out 🙂

Here is this week’s starting image…

And here is my image…

I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to do with this one until we went to the zoo on Wednesday. Then I decided to try to incorporate some animal images I’ve shot into the image… All of the animal images are photographs I’ve taken myself either at Disney’s Animal Kingdom or the National Zoo in DC.

The sky was created using an old photoshop plugin called KPT Sky Effects.
