30 day challenge day 10

Day 10- a picture of the person you do/did the most fucked up things with.
  
 I had to use the 'Wayback' machine to find this picture.
By far, these two are the people I've done the most fucked up things with.
We just tend to have a great time as a trio or when it is just any two of us.
  
I miss them both!

30 day challenge day 9

Day 9- a picture of the person who has gotten you through the most.
 
My parents are the people who got me through the most.  For 57 years they were always there if I ever needed help.  It is odd that they 'don't have my back' any more.  Most the time I feel like I'm out here in the world and if something happens or I need help, I'm on my own.
I've posted a version of this picture before. This one is different.  I left the dust on the glass because they are gone and their memory ever so slowly fades.  If you look closely you  can make out my reflection (something I normally wouldn't tolerate in a shot),.  I'm there for a reason, my very existence is a reflection of the two of them.

30 day challenge days 6 - 8

Posted on 6:25 PM by jr cline | 2 comments

  
Day 6- a picture of your family
 
 This is Einstein. He is a four year old Red Loried Amazon.
Einstein is friendly, whistles, and says several words.
    
 This is Bilbo the parrotlet.   
Bilbo is less than a year old.
He joined our flock last September.
 
Day 7- your most treasured item.
 
 In the process of simplifying my life in preparation for moving into an RV
I've given a lot of thought to what items are 'keepers'.
It isn't as easy as it seems to part with items you've kept
(and maybe cherished) for years.
One item I know will travel with me is my camera(s) and camera gear.
  
 Day 8- a picture that makes you laugh
  
   This was a fairly easy picture to take.
After over a year since my parent's deaths,
I find it hysterical that my siblings still have things in the house
and that the house isn't for sale.

I picked up a Pentax Optio W90 this week.
 

  Here are four of my first exploratory pictures.
  
Taken before dawn using available light and the camera's night setting.
  
A tiny piece of curly vine attached to.  
the  pumpkin in the previous picture.
Taken in daylight using the camera's macro setting.
  
  The center of a begonia blossom. 
Taken in daylight using the camera's macro setting.
 
The temperature on a six inch tall outside thermometer.
Taken this afternoon using the camera's auto setting.
  
So far I really like this point and shoot.  
It won't replace my big camera, but it will be a lot of fun.
