Photo me THRILLED by Beth Ann

After our vacation with the family in South Dakota, Husband and I took a few days in Denver. We visited the Denver Botanical Gardens.  

These gardens were over the moon ! and I took LOTS of pictures.  Just a few here My Canon Camera

The lilies were in full bloom, this will probably become a book cover.

Weekly Wednesday Photo my Blue Heart Flowers

All my talk lately about photo saving, filing and doing, is really about a new computer I received from Husband LAST Christmas (2017) and I JUST opened up the box and I am trying to use it.    It’s also….. all about my learning the photo program, Photoshop. AND I figured with a laptop, throwing it OUT the window would be easier. But the results…I have to say with pain, “I like.”

As always, I can’t leave it there….I’m doing the research to be able to have Blue Heart printed in a HUGE wall size.

Weekly Wednesday PHOTO

We are just back from two weeks on a plane, a car and lots of walking, aka hiking.  Husband and I took 3268 pictures, yes that’s the number.  Of course, lots of flowers.   Here is some of mine right from the camera, only added the water mark.  Saying that, I did take 17 photo’s in about a 5 minutes.    I heard a photo instructor in my mind saying, “Stop editing in camera.” But…I do, I’m not a photo shop lover….Rather spend time taking photo’s than fixing them.

Weekly Wednesday PHOTO

Using a digital camera is the best, I click away digital photo’s every place we go. This past week we were at the South Florida Museum. 
I took a couple of pictures of the car thinking nothing about it. When I downloaded it.   Can you see me ? I did it in EVERY photo I took of this car???

Weekly Wednesday Photo

I have to say, “I love flowers” and daisies just seem to welcome everyone.  I have been working on a series that I think will become a note card collection. I’ve been working on using light in different ways.   I’ve named this set, Daisy Day.

Weekly Wednesday Photo a Quilt

I take a lot a quilt photo’s, the quilts I make all completed, one’s that are in the sewing process and even the idea sheets I draw. Lots of quilt photo’s. So, the other day, I decide to look at a quilt different. I know, not the normal idea you awake up too? But, I do ??  Seeing a quilt from a new angle. 
This is, “All Stitched”

Make it March for My Photo’s

My little camera died ! No pain, no drama, BUT it DIED ! Husband just handed over his, it also is a Canon, point and shot, but it’s a REALLY good one. I’m in a learning curve again and love the adventure of new. So these are some of my photos from January, we took a couple of days and drove down to Sanibel Island. It of course was the coldest week we have had in years. But, we had a great time. Photo’s by Beth Ann Doing  See my quilt Shop

Take Time Thursday

I picked up  grocery store flowers and just shot pictures, daisy photo’s, nothing better.   I have been reading, “Perfectly Yourself” by Matthew Kelly. He says, about the phrase, Practice makes perfect, “Practice makes progress.”  OK, mind blowing for me. Notebooks of ideas of quilts, watercolors, paintings to do and over thinking each idea and everything I do….Must be perfect, must to complete, must…must…be perfect.  No, I need to just be me. I think maybe with more knowledge of photography, I have set myself up. Today, I let my own process be, I can just some how see it.

Take Time Thursday – Photo’s by Beth Ann

I didn’t get out this week to shoot any new pictures….these are my attempt at a photo competition???? and I mean I TRY ! !  This first one I LOVE, but I placed it in the documentary category, and it’s not a documentary photo??? After 3 emails and 2 phone calls, I knew…..it was not going to get even looked at. My Fault…. I titled it “A bit of Her Life” maybe they knew it was my life?

I have been playing with black and white. I love adding a bit of color too. That’s why the top one was NOT a documentary photo, but creative??
