Day 278/365 - mini mini mini mini wheats (strawberry flavour).....

Went to visit my friend Pam and outside her house were these large hay bale rolls. I never knew quite how large they were until I walked up to these. They are a good 5ft high and 5 to 8ft long. Wow. What a better shot of the day for me!!

I played with the exposure settings ont he camera and got this shot in a quickly darkening sky.

..mini mini mini mini wheats (they’re our new flavour).....

Day 277/365 - I take your order please? I highly recommend the combo #5!.....

This was an odd sight to see in front of me, I wasn't quite sure what I was following . Is it some weird molecular sculpture, some giant beach balls, no. It's actually some rather large tanks I assume propane tanks for homes or businesses, but from this angle it gave a neat shot...

Point and Click threw the windshield.

...Combo 1,2, ah 3,4,5......

Day 276/365 - Welcome to my world....

Ok, I had said I wanted to put another self portrait shot in this month so here it is. I was just goofing around with the camera trying different things with my reflections and ended up with this off the side of a outdoor spotlight bulb.

Nothing special , like I said just a goof off 365 shot today, my first.. ha ha...

....won't you come on in....

Day 275/365 - The great hero Kikkoman! Soy sauce makes the difference ......

At Asia Grille last week I set up this shot with my chopsticks and soy sauce bottle, I tried a few closeups of the food and other things but I thought this one fit the best.

A simple shot in low lighting, after learning a lot about lighting AFTER taking this picture I would have tried a few different approaches on this, but I like the shot, simple yet effective...

....Pour it, taste it, be amazed! ....

Day 274/365 - Don't blame us if we ever doubt you You know we couldn't live without you....

Snapped a few picture while we were out at BoxSeats having a bite to eat and went with this one, Unfortunately the Yankees are beating us. I notice how the bright TV stands out sooo much in the dark picture laden walls , it's called BoxSeats for a reason though....

Nothing special, a little noise in the picture on Auto ISO but you get the idea...

.....Red Sox, you are the only only only....

Day 273/365 - All the leaves are brown, the leaves are brown...

The leaves have started falling and fall is finally here, I like the changing colors happening everywhere.... This were a pile of leaves I moved around in the parking lot next to my car , I tried a few different shots and thought this one the best...

It has noticable blur in front and back, I'm learning about bokeh now and I can see some in here... I think the eye is attracted to the center of the picture more than anywhere else..

...and the sky is gray...

Day 272/365 - Oh yes, wait a minute Mister Postman.....

I took a picture of something I walk by everyday, imagine that. I was trying to get less frustrated with my lack of creativity and just take some simple pictures of things I normally pass on over, of course from different angles, perhaps I'll do another shot from a different angle tomorrow, who knows....

nice texture, nice clarity, you can still read everything ....

...if there's a letter in your bag for me.......

Day 271/365 - I'll stop the world and melt with you....

Ahh nothing like a big tall glass of grape juice to cool my mouth down after the buffalo wings we made this night. We made 3 different levels of hotness and the hottest ones were a bit spicy, whew.... Michelle never has a problem but her lips were tingling too after those... mmm mmm good....

Closeup of the drink, wasn't sure how it would come out but I liked the outcome...

...you've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time....

Day 270/365 - The eensy, weensy, spider.....

Gross, there are so many different nasty spiders around here, I can't wait until the first frost to get rid of these things. Some of them are downright huge. This one hung on a web outside our sliding door it looked as if he was stuck on his own web. I don't know what kind of spider this is, but it doesn't look good to me...

Neat shot with the blurred background reflected off the glass.

...went up the water spout.....

Day 269/365 - Here's lookin' at you kid....

I didn't have many shots from this day I realized but there always seems to be one of the baby in there somehow, ha ha.... Here he is just playin in the crib for a moment after his bath. He's lookin' at his daddy with the camera , as usual... As if to say, come on Dad, enough already...

Used flash, but nice bright colors on this.
