My Grandmother

I was doing a bit of cleaning this morning and ran across an old CD with this photo of my grandma on it. When I was in college I took a photoshop class and we had to do a restoration of an old picture. I chose the one above. Would you believe it used to have water spots and creases through it?

Anyway, it was a lot of fun restoring the photo. She was so beautiful when she was young! I wish I had been able to get to know her better. I think I would appreciate her a lot more now, as an adult. If I could go back to when she was 50yrs old or so, and have dinner with her, I bet I’d learn a lot about her life. I know it wasn’t an easy one.

Chuck Taylor All Stars

About a month and a half before my niece was born, I asked the father-to-be to help me out with a photoshoot! I thought the contrast between the masculine future father and the tiny pink shoes would be a lot of fun. They turned out pretty good, don’t you think? *grin*

 

 

I know my last post was photos too, but this place won’t turn entirely into a photoblog, I promise. It’s just that I’ve really been wanting to share these and I had to wait until after my sister-in-law got her baby shower gift, since it included framed prints of the first three shots and they were a surprise! The baby shower was tonight, so I finally get to show these off! Whoohoo! (Unfortunately, the shots of the baby I took tonight were all blurry due to low light. I should be taking some more on Thursday during the day though!)

Beware!

A couple of shots from a photo walk with a friend…

Afterward, we went to Aster Cafe, where we were among the first people to experience the restaurant’s reopening! It was really fun, especially since it was so spur-of-the-moment. It’s not everyday you accidentally stumble into a business’s trial run!

We were in the right place at the right time, I guess. And yes, the blue cheese plate w/honey, pear slices, and walnuts was scrumptious!!

The Table & Chairs Project…


(photo by rawheadrex)

I was looking around on Flickr this evening and ran across this really great little project! This sort of thing gets my mind moving. There are so many ways you can shoot different subjects! The photos in the pool so far are clever and creative. Of course, my favorite might be the one with the Lego in it… *grin* This sort of project makes me want to dream up something and give it a go. I don’t let my creative mind out nearly enough!

Go check it out: The Table & Chairs Project…

You won’t regret taking a peek!
