I don't know the story behind this letter "J"... but it is carved/stamped into the electric pole in my yard.

I think I have my last reflection shot... I went uptown at about sunset and shot into the storefront windows to capture both the street behind and the tables inside. I love the marriage of the two worlds in this shot and how they fade into each other. I also liked this one. The reflection in the sunglasses distorts a little, but I don't love it. Because it was taken through a window, it isn't as clear as I think it could be.

Today was a great learning experience for me. I took my first ever set of head shots. These were a rush order so the family was not concerned with my lack of experience shooting head shots.
I studied up on what is desirable for them and I hope I was able to capture what they needed. I would do them again, I wish all my photo shoots were as quick and easy as this one was.

I had a family photo shoot today. It was a 60th anniversary party and the Grandma had me do family portraits of all her kids, grand kids, and great-grand kids. A good idea to capture the everyone while they are there. Today's shot is of the parents getting their little guy ready for the camera... spit bath anyone? Love and Family

A photographer friend of mine takes stunning macro shots. I can't compete with her work, but the other day she took some beautiful photos of weeds. I thought I'd try my hand at it. There is no weed more hated around here than the Thistle... here it is in all it's glory. We will be chopping it down tomorrow. Love and pokey things

I have a photo from today... but I don't have permission from the model's parents to post so I will wait for that before I share it with you.

These pictures won't have much meaning if you aren't from around here, but the scene stopped me cold this morning when I drove by. Where this brush pile sits there used to be the county home for the elderly. It hasn't been used for better than 25 years now and it certainly was falling apart. But It was shocking to no longer see it on our rural landscape. It was a real lesson for me. Every time I drove by here I would think about how the dilapidated building had so much character and I really needed to photograph it. Now, I will never get the chance. Don't wait my friends, take that photo before the opportunity is gone.

This month's photo assignment is reflections... I shot a couple tonight just as a starting point. I like the idea of these compositions, but I would have liked to have the reflections a little crisper. I think maybe that would happen with cleaner water? I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for reflective surfaces.
