I love taking photos of the fresh flowers that I frequently put in my home. Here’s a new one:

How would you alter this photo to make it better?

This is an old photo that I took of someone’s legs/feet at a bar where I was attending an event. This is the first photo that I’ve posted here that I edited in any way. That’s because I’m just starting to play around with editing for the first time. The original photo was too dark to see anything so I altered the brightness and contrast and then played around with the levels in Resizr. Not very advanced, I know, but it’s a start. I’m taking a photoshop class next week so I can learn more.

This is a photo that I took the last time that I was back home. The dog on the left is one of my two dogs that stayed behind with my parents when I moved from Arizona. The other is my brother’s dog that ended up living with them when he moved. As you can see, they’ve taken over the house.

I always get green eyes from the dogs (like this) when I take pictures of them. Is there any way to avoid that? I know I can fix it with a photo editor but I’m wondering if I can stop it from happening all together.

The sign in front of this hair salon just struck me as funny:

Today’s photo set is a series of photos that I’ve been working on for awhile. It’s me feigning fear whenever I see a DANGER sign. These signs are typically something I see when I go out hiking. Would love your thoughts on this series.

This photo was taken last month at a place where I went hiking. Those two little structures are the bathrooms that are located at the head of the hiking trail. They’re different from what you usually see aren’t they?

I put flowers all over my house but the most common place that you’ll find them is in my kitchen. I stick them in old wine bottles and put them on the windowsill so I can see them while cooking or washing dishes. I love these big orange sunflowers!

This is just a simple photo of a piece of fencing that I noticed when I was out somewhere. Still, there’s something I love about the curlicue of it. What do you think?

Just thought I’d share a picture of my bathroom. I happen to love my bathroom. Here you can see that i’ve got a flirty shower curtain and a pretty purple toilet seat cover with matching bath mat. I also have burlesque pictures on the wall, a beautiful grey/white soap dispenser and the Flower Girl vase that you’ve seen pictured in other photos here before.

Today’s picture was actually taken by my sister using my camera. We went to check out the ruins of the Sutro Baths. I’ve photographed them before but my sister had an interesting twist on them. Whereas I primarily focused on the ruins, she focused on the ocean beyond the ruins and got only a bit of the ruins in the picture. I like it. Do you?
