April 13, 2013 Cathedral Mountain - Sedona, Arizona

Such a beautiful place...I took this photo of Oak Creek with the Cathedral Mountain in the distance a couple weeks ago. I'm sure the buds on the trees are all open by now. The water level was low, so at times all of this rock is under water.

Out the Window... 4/5/2013

I've neglected my blog, so I'm making a promise to post at least one photo each week. Here is this week's photo...

This is a photo I took through the kitchen window in Arizona. He is a small bobcat who just killed a gopher snake. Unfortunately, the gopher snakes are good snakes and eat rodents, etc.

Street Feet Theme

In the Photographer's Guild this month the challenge theme was "Street Feet". Here are my entries:

Super hero Captain "A" (aka my grandson Aaron) creeps around the corner, looking for the bad guys. We are all safer today...

 My grandson, Drew.....a little Photoshop experiment with layers and masks.

And for my entry for the "Photo of the Month" contest...

"HUMANS"

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge.....Friendship

I entered the "I Heart Faces Photo Challenge". The theme was Friendship..... these little guys are my awesome 4 year old twin grandsons....they truly are "best" friends.

September Photo Theme - Action

The theme for the month of September was Action.  Blurred action, frozen action and panning action. Here are some of my photos.

Photography Heading in a Different Direction

I can't believe I haven't posted in a month. I'm taking a break from the Scavenger Hunt to spend more time on improving my photography skills. (There are only so many hours in a day).  I have joined a local Photographer's Guild and I'm trying to learn as much as I can. This is a photo I took after taking an Architectural Photography workshop.  We learned about the importance of choosing your topic, identifying your reason for shooting it, choosing the right time to photograph it, composition, lighting, having the camera level and creating a theme or story to communicate to the viewer... and how to use "lens correction" in Photoshop.

I wanted to combine what I learned in the workshop with the Guild's monthly photo challenge....the theme was "drought".
