February 28, 2010


Today Jane and I were at Riverfront Park in town here for archery practice. The park was a prisoner of war camp and there are a lot of old riverstone buildings from that time. I took some pics of buildings and of the kids practicing. Beautiful day today. I'll post a pic when I get them printed.

I've made it so far!

Well, I have managed to take a photo every day so far this year. I know it is only two months but it has now become a habit. That was my goal. Some days the shots are more snapshots than art but it will improve! I am happy with my progress.

By the end of the year I am planning on establishing a small home business making stationary and postcards with my images on them. I will probably sell on etsy and in any small store I can get to take them on consignment! Any ideas on a name for my business!! I really am starting to like what I am coming up with. I have ordered some fiber photo paper. I decided on glossy as the pearl finish that I am now using doesn't scan worth a darn and I sort of like the look of glossy.

Well, thanks to everyone who has taken a look. I promise not to let my blog get this far behind again. I also really appreciate any criticisms or comments on my photos.

Well, I got all caught up with my printing! I still have 6 more photos to scan then I'll get them on. Note to self. Do not get 2 weeks behind in printing or in posts!!!

I've discovered it's very hard to get a good picture of a very pregnant rabbit who wants you to go away! This is Jane's Broken Havana rabbit. She was due on the 21'st but still no babies!

February 19, 2010

Jane and I took a walk around town taking pictures today. Of course we had to do the I'm taking a picture of you taking a picture of me! Fun afternoon!

February 18, 2010

Jane all did up in her new show clothes that she got during our shopping trip yesterday!

Snowing heavy and I'm getting into my car to drive to Billings! I know how to have fun! I like how the snow turned out in this one.

February 16, 2010

The actual print is really extremely black at the bottom of this photo. This paper always scans with spots. I was proud of myself for actually not getting any dust spots on all that black!

Yet another garage photo.

Old rail cars in the snow.

Well, I'm able to print but...

My computer isn't letting me scan. It just shuts itself off when I try. Stupid computer!!! Now you know another reason why I don't like doing my art on a computer!!! I will get one of the computers in this house to allow scans this next week and will update the last week! I have made it so far. A photo every day!

I got off work this morning and all the trees were covered with frost. I wish that I could have captured it better.

Jane painting her room!

January 26, 2010


I was busy cleaning this day and ran out and took a shot down the block at 11:30 PM! The tracks in the snow sort of looked neat. I wish I would have grabbed a tripod and took a longer exposure. I may have to revisit the shot.

January 25, 2010


More snow and ice! This is our back door.

January 24, 2010


A wall in the garage.
