Wow, I haven't been here for awhile.  Sorry about that.  I have been busy with other things.  Will be posting new pics soon.

Photo of the Day

 

Look at all those beautiful colors!  Who could not like Autumn? 

 

 

Amber Glow

Red and yellow painted leaves
hang idly within the trees
They break and sail along the breeze
As fires of Autumn's time

They dance and surf upon the ground
Overlap each other with ruffling sound
A setting I am glad I found
As fires of Autumn's time

Like fires of the Autumn season
they leap and dance without a reason
A factor of Autumns many seasons
As fires of Autumn's time'

The grey clouds break, the sun appears
The dancing leaves appear to sere
These flames its kept for many years
As fires of Autumn's time

Photographing People

This image was found at:  http://photographyconcentrate.com/make-your-photos-magical/

 

 

So, I am studying to become a photographer but I am impatient with my lessons from school so, I have been scouring the internet for "how-tos".  I am particularly looking for articles on how to photograph people.  Here is a link I would like to share with you about this subject.

I have only read part of it so far.  Hopefully,  we can all get some good tips from tis article.

Job Applicaton

So, I totally hate having to work somewhere that I don't enjoy the job so, I decided, why not apply for a job doing something I love.  So, I just applied at the Picture Me Portrait Studio located in our local Walmart.  I really need the experience if I want to be a freelance photographer.  Hopefully, they will call me.

Photo Of The Day

 

This is one of my favorite photos.  I took this in Sherrill, NY. 

 

Sherrill is a city in Oneida County, New York, United States. With a population of 3,071 (2010 census), it is the least populous city in the state. Sherill is located at the western end of the Town of Vernon on Route 5. Sherrill is referred to as The Silver City because it was once home to Oneida Ltd.
