Lattes, beautification, pink hair

Posted on 7:03 PM by jr cline | 0 comments

Life is amazing when you're open.
I started out today working on migrating data (like most days).  I didn't have any plans other than doing that until bedtime.
The phone rang.
Life had other plans.

Christy called and we met for lattes at the new coffee shop in town.
318 Coffee and Bands has great coffee.
 
Amid the conversation, there was a lot of picture taking going on.

After visiting a consignment shop, we stopped in the beauty parlor for some beautification.  Christy, not me.  There is no hope for me.
 
Last stop was the doggie boutique.  
How about that pink hair?

 All these were taken with an iPhone 4 and the SLFT-IP4 filter.
 
 A mask in the sun room.
  
I used the macro lens and Tooncamera app for the bird head.
This is a small sculpture in my office.

I've been working from home a lot recently. 
I took this sitting at the table where I work.

     Christy, Jesse, and I went out for lunch
and the two of them played on the inside playground.
Check out this fun video about that adventure that Christy made.
Taken with the Hipstamatic app.
   
The next day, the three of us went to Horsestomp and played along the creek bank.
Christy posted a video of that adventure too.

So far so good.  I'm going to try this another week.

SLFT-IP4

Posted on 4:58 PM by jr cline | 0 comments

  I've been having a lot of fun with the SLFT-IP4 filters lately
  
especially the 3 kaleidoscope filters.
These two pictures are Jess's 'car' parked in the garage.
He has almost out grown it.
     
        

 
These two pictures are of a lamp and an oscillating fan (the fan isn't on).
  
 
 The picture above was taken with one of the 3 kaleidoscope filters through a prism.
  It is a street in the town near where I stay.
  
I have several masks hanging in the sun room and a kaleidoscope filter created this look.
 
   I've also been playing with the macro filter.  The picture above is of my fingers.

    I realize some of you will find this gross.
A tiny lizard died and dried out in the garage.
Poor little thing. :(
    

1PM in my life

Posted on 6:08 PM by jr cline | 0 comments

I started a new photo a day project.  The idea is to take a picture every day at 1pm where ever I happen to be at the time.  Now I won't try to tell you that I took all these pictures right at 1pm but it wasn't too much after 1.

 I've taken and posted a lot of pictures of this little fellow.  He keeps me company when I'm sitting on the front porch.  I suspect he will be keeping me company in the RV.
     
 I discovered a logistical problem with this project.  It is better to pull over to take a picture.  Driving and picture taking just isn't the 'A' plan.
  
 The big fuzzy road home in the car seat.  We didn't want him to get injured in a accident.
 
 I was actually in my office a few times this week even on the days I was off.
 
 I guess you have picked up on my fascination with black and white photos of magazine racks.  I was waiting to check out when I took this picture.  Maybe I should switch back to the candy rack.
  
 The drinking fountain down the hall from my office.
 
I do eat.  This is what I cooked for lunch today.  I'm not sure what to call it.  It is pizza fixings on a flour tortilla.  It was tasty so I'll probably make it again.

I'm going to try another week of these to see how it goes.
