...and there was light...

Day 267/365 - One little monkey jumping on the bed....

I was trying some new techniques with my camera, specifically lighting and objecting in a dark room. I have used this figure before but with the different textures I thought it was a good subject, so here he is again. Plus he was close at hand.

I don't like the fact that it is very grainy in the dark areas, in the small picture you don't notice it, but blown up you see a lot of artifacts.... I'll keep at it..

...he fell off and bumped his head...

Day 266/365 - Boys and girls of every age Wouldn't you like to see something strange?.....

We had some homemade pizza tonight from Michelle's friends' that came over, I had a few shots of the unfinished pizza dough however, they were a bit fuzzy. This is the front cover of Family Circle , I thought the pumpkins looked cool all lined up and I managed to get just them in the picture from the cover.

I had to move the magazine around a bit and play with the lighting to get this the way I wanted.

...Come with us and you will see
This, our town of Halloween....

Day 265/365 - 99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer....

Well I can't believe there are only 99 days until Christmas Eve and I'm still going through with this crazy project. It has been very rewarding at times and downright frustrating as well. I sometimes have these great ideas in my head and other days draw blanks. You get the picture, and you SEE the pictures....

I set this up on a shelf in the closet. I couldn't quite get it in the focus I wanted at the frame I wanted. That's a vinyl 6 foot Heineken picture by the way...

...You take one down and pass it around.. only 99 more pictures to go...

Day 264/365 - Ze moon! Ze June! Ze spoon! C'est l'amour!! C'est toujours!....

I happened to glance out the back window and saw this little guy prancing through the yard! Of course I had to try and get a few pictures of him so I followed him around the house until I got a few good shots. I was far enough away and didn't scare him so I was in no danger of getting sprayed. If I did it was all in the name of photography..

I took a ton of shots trying to get one where he would stay still, the outdoor sky wasn't helping my shot and the flash was of no use at this distance.

Day 263/365 - He's Winnie the Pooh Winnie the Pooh.....

I was out of ideas today and I was trying something with this nightlight in Brendon's room. I actually somewhat like this picture although the lack of something interesting to shoot today is a bit frustrating. I'm closing in on my goal, albeit still a ways to go, everyday gets closer and harder to come up with something...

"frustrated"

Day 262/365 - With that honky tonk badonkadonk.....

Woah nelly.. I stopped at the nursery on the way back from Sturbridge and met this little fella stickin' his snot over the fence. His brother had already got over or under the fence somehow and he wanted out to. Here he tries to eat the camera....

I like this shot because it's quite comical...

...Got it goin' on
Like Donkey Kong....

Day 261/365 - Oh but aint that america for you and me Aint that america were someting to see baby Aint that america, home of the free.....

Here are the buildings at the front of the park at Storyland. I liked the bright colors with the sun coming over the tops and the big ominous clods in the background. It was a nice warm day in the 70s. This was taken fright before we were about to leave. The park wasn't busy at all, hence the clear shot with no people.

Nice clear, bright, colorful...

...Little pink houses for you and me....

Day 260/365 - Everyday it's a-gettin' closer.....

Here's a shot of CJ and Michelle on the rollercoaster at Santa's Village. I stood on the sidelines with Brendon while they went around a few times. You can see CJ is having a good time with his hands in the air.

A bit blurry but that's what it's all about , it shows the ride in motion that way....


...goin' faster than a rollercoaster....
