Day 51 - it's not m-i-c-k-e-y......

So there is this game I play on Facebook called MouseHunt. The object of the game is to catch as many mice as you can using different traps and bases. The more gold you get the more mice you can catch and the more gold you can earn, it's a never ending cycle. Now What I thought was funny was the fact that to catch the mouse you have to sound a hunter's horn. Well this little mouse was something lying around the house and low and behold he's playing his own horn! I saw him and said, look how fitting, I have my own Mousehunt mascot!!

I took the shot using the sunlight to create the cool shadow of the mouse. It does look like they typical Mickey Mouse head in the background. I like the lighting of the shot , again using only the sunlight peeking through the curtains. Yes I used that yesterday as well, this is in the same room as the prior picture, but I think it works so well in certain circumstances. I also like the material contrast of the metal mouse and the stone bricks behind him.....

...m-o-u-s-e....

MouseHunt!!!

Day 22 - up, up and away......

Not an interesting day at all. I was busy with work and had a chance to get out for a break to pick up some gloves at REI after I ruined my other pair which were rather new. So I looked around inside for a few shots, took a few shots outside but nothing really struck my fancy. Call it an uninspired day. I expect some of those along the way, it's gonna be at least a year of pictures or more we shall see!!!

This is taken right outside the front doors, I like architecture and I especially like modern architecture with clean lines and industrial styles, so this shot looking up towards the sky interested me. I like the unique angle of the shot, as well as the stark contrast the metal sheeting and bolts make against the natural wood beams. A lot of the sky was washed out due to not using the correct light settings and/or flash. An external flash may have helped here.
