Project 365....day 24

So today was another busy work day for me...while I was working, my fam. was out sleigh riding! When they got home after all that fun and hot cocoa at Gramma Mavis' house, there was time for a little beautification! ♥ I got home just in time to capture my little beauty queen. ♥

Project 365....day 23

Today I had to work all morning/early afternoon, so as SOON as I was done, I was out like a bat out of hell toward the town of Hope to get my pictures taken. I didn't have as much light as I'd have liked, but I will take what I can get on days like today. Here are today's pictures; some scenic shots of the Sacandaga River. ♥ I live in the most beautiful place in the country!

Project 365....day 22

Today I set out in search of a waterfall that is located about 30 minutes (give or take) from me, way out in the town of Hope. I was able to find the water fall, and it was BEAUTIFUL (and Icy!) I also lucked out in a few different areas....so without further ado, here are today's 365's....a selected few from the beautiful outdoors!

On my way north, I couldn't pass up the chance to stop and shoot this farm. This is where I get pumpkins with my little human every fall.

Then it was on to the main attraction....off to Hamilton County in search of a waterfall!

Once I was done there, my plans were to head home....the deer, however, had different plans for me! As I was coming over the hill, all I could see were white tails! I stopped for a (long) minute, and took another 2 or so rolls of film, and got to see a beautiful Momma and her 3 babies feed, and run, and play and enjoy this beautiful, warm winter day! <3

This first shot is one of the beautiful little fawns. ♥




2 of the babies.

Project 365....day 21

Today I had a shoot to help out my cousin who coaches the bowling team at one of the local high schools around here. Being a wonderful cousin, and always excited to help out where I can, I went on down to shoot their senior day stuff for the high school year book! While I was there, I couldn't resist messing around with my own camera some (because as a surprise, I got to use the school's camera!) Most of what I shot today involves other people's kids, so I'm not using any of those....instead, I give you (what I call) Retro-bowling shots. Enjoy!

Balls!




Pins!




Lanes!


Trying my hand at portraits....

An old friend and I got together yesterday for a "horror" style photo shoot. It didn't work out exactly like that (winter tends to get in the way of the really good dark, creepy looking alleys around here) but I'm really pleased with the way this shoot turned out, and wanted to share a few selected highlights here.

Project 365....day 20

So I've made it 20 days in.....today the shots I've got for you are all random and local from inside the city. I had a really fun photo shoot with my friend Mark, and these were a few of the randoms I shot today.

A stone wall and some grapevines.



More grapevines against the snow.



Some kind of pricker-bush....not entirely sure what this plant is.

Project 365....day 19

Today's 365's come to you from around and about my house once again! Today was a damp day full of snow and cold, icky winter rain...as a result, we did very little today; some puzzles....some coloring.....some boiling water because of the water main break in town today... (Doh!) Anyway....here are today's pics; a mix of all my subjects today! Enjoy!♥

This morning when I woke up and took the dog out it was snowing; big fat flakes that looked like the ends of Q-tips or cotton balls or something...I could not resist running back in for my camera when I spied this little leaf...




~*~*~




Then, it was back indoors for some time with our books...




And after we had lunch, and Amelia took off on the bus, the little girl I watch in the afternoon came. She was sleepy today. ♥





While Rylee napped, Thomas gave me the "cheese-wiz!" face!
