March 16, 2011 (Nippon no tame ni inoru 日本のために祈る) Prayers for Japan and all the people touched by this tragedy. A lot of my figures are Japanese figures and I wanted to do a shot with all of them, but nothing was appealing to me except this one. 75:365 @sharkbayte

  • March 17, 2011-Happy St. Patrick's Day! This is the closet I came to finding a leprechaun. So here is a leprechaun wannabe wishing you the best St. Patrick's Day ever! 76:365 @sharkbayte<br /> <br /> Thank you for all the kind comments on my Prayers for Japan picture yesterday. My thoughts and prayers are with those effected and to those still waiting to hear from family and loved ones. I have heard from my friends and they are okay. I hope everyone here that has family and loved ones receives good news and soon. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

  • March 15, 2011-Reaching up. I saw these tiny buds on a tree along the road and thought I would grab a quick shot. I don't know what type tree this is but the buds are pretty and I liked the colors. 74:365
  • March 14, 2011- Red showed up today with the star pack, they are some of the friends, Treeson and Ren have befriended. 73:365
  • March 13, 2011-Last night's moon was called the first quarter moon. It was eight days old and already fifty percent full. (Day 72 #365Project @sharkbayte)
  • March 12, 2011- Treeson is a kind creature raised by the trees in the forest. He was stabbed in the chest with a tree branch by the logger who was trying to cut down the tree that raised him. After being wounded, he met Ren, his only human friend. Neither Treeson nor Ren are very popular with the local kids, but they keep each other company and try to save the trees in the city from being cut down by humans that want to put up more buildings. – Artist Bubi Au Yeung at Crazylabel.<br /> <br /> This is my new collection and hopefully new adventures with the other characters I have. (Day 71 #365Project @sharkbayte)
  • March 11, 2011-After the storms cleared out the sky started to brighten a bit, I grabbed my camera and went outside to capture what I could. This area filled with trees was the only part with the colors. (Day 70 #365Project @sharkbayte)
  • March 10, 2011-Nova's eyes are so beautiful. She was napping outside waiting for her owner to come back from the store. She woke up when I got a bit closer to her and I didn't want her to take off so I stayed put and tried to get a decent head shot. I cropped and tweaked the contrast a bit. Other than that this is all her colors. (Day 69 #365Project @sharkbayte)
  • March 9, 2011- I wanted to try something different with my moon shots. I was playing around with settings and to write up something for all that asked how I do this. This is very simple. I handhold but I bet if you use a tripod it would be better. I don’t have any special trick, I only played with the camera to get my shots, in the beginning last year I took a few hundred shots every time I tried this, until I got it right and found the settings I use now. I sometimes still play with the settings at different phases of the moon. I still don’t have it down to a science yet, but at least I am not taking several hundred shots each time. I take up to a dozen (big difference) and that is because I don’t trust what I see on my LCD screen, and I start to play around. I basically follow these settings: <br /> <br /> full moon: ISO: 400 1/500 sec @f/16 <br /> half moon: ISO: 400 1/500 sec @f/11 <br /> Crescent moon: ISO: 400 1/125 sec @f/8 <br /> <br /> These are just guide lines I use. I do stray away from these from time to time. Such as today’s picture. I wrote the settings on the picture. I would have thought that the bottom moon would have shown more details in the craters but it looks like the top moon picture seems to have a tad more details. So after I get the settings right on the camera I aim and shoot. That’s it! Then I crop the photos to the size I want, very little tweaking if any. Hope this helped some. <br /> <br /> (Day 68 #365Project @sharkbayte)
  • March 8, 2011- Just a quick shot of some new flowers my neighbor planted. (Day 67 #365project @sharkbayte)
  • March 7, 2011- He's an angel...when he is sleeping. I cropped close to his paw because he fell asleep in between a box of tissues and some other articles on the other side of him. If I moved or tried to move the items out of the way he would have woken and lost the shot. I have no clue how he can tell when I am taking his picture while he is sleeping. He just wakes up, so this was a treat for me to capture him sleeping and with a semi decent clear shot. (Day 66 #365Project @sharkbayte)<br /> <br /> thanks for all the wonderful comments on my sparrow shot. My neighbor has about 4 feeders and that is where I go to get most of my bird shots.
  • March 6, 2011-Chipping Sparrow, a few different bird species started to show up this week. This is one of them I haven't seen before. (Day 65 #365Project @sharkbayte)

    Love your creativity!!!! PS Clearly by your stunning photos, your wheelchair does not limit your vision - it increases it!!! I do my best to honor that my 'illnesses' are my best friends, allowing me to see the world in a more sensitive light, and allowing me the time to honor and care for my 'whole' being, in mind, body and spirit. They give me the gift of being able to share those visions with others with the use of my camera, and appreciate all the wonderful things I can do in spite of pain or fatigue. So, Kudos to us!!! : ) : ) : ) Looking forward to seeing more!
