Photography

Today was a busy day that mostly revolved around painting the downstairs bathroom, and seeing as I didn't much feel like photographing paint drying, I didn't actually take any photos until almost 8 PM. These are the ones that I liked best:


I found these growing outside our fence. The photo is a fairly straightforward set up, but it did give me a chance to practice using the zoom on the digital camera. I feel fairly competent with my SLR where I can adjust the zoom exactly as I like it, but I end up doing mostly point and shoot stuff with our digital camera.


Case in point of my zoom challenges being this attempt at a vaguely artsy shot of a pebble on our patio table. I think I'll try again tomorrow and see if I can focus on the pebble rather than the table.


I think this shot of the bullrushes behind our house is probably my favourite of the day. It came out fairly clear, and I think the sludginess of the pond life makes a pretty decent backdrop.

That's it for today! I'll try to get a few less traditional shots throughout the week, although I'm kind of thinking I might go and see the bishop's horses tomorrow. I'd love to hear what you think :)
