Incurable dreamer. Unintentionally absurd. Given to random moments of stream of consciousness thinking-out-loud, which confuses people around and seems to bother small animals. Passably intelligent about the useless stuff. Damnably idiotic when it comes to the simple stuff. In other words, painfully ordinary. But now and then, a flash of the extraordinary comes through. Or maybe that's just the neighbor playing with mirrors again.-

I noticed the same thing last week when I was shooting the inside of my piano! Yuk! Who knew you had to dust there?
That’s why there is Photoshop.
Yep, I would have the same problem with my plants.
You sure have me interested in macro photography. If it’s dust that one takes a picture of… wow… I’ll never run out of things to photograph in my house, that’s for sure.
I’m on a mission to learn about things like your Raynox DCR-250 macro converter lens to see if there’s something like that for DSLR’s…
Need your advice on something: Bryan F Peterson has a two day workshop that I’m interested in (it’s not macro..it’s architecture and landscape). Have you ever done something like that? and if so, would you recommend it?…
Thanks again… sure do enjoy all your photos… (p.s.. you certainly don’t need a Nikon… you give Canon a real good reputation with your vivid pictures….)
one more note… just re-read my post (which I should have done before I hit the submit button..)
I meant “have you ever attended a workshop” or I guess on 2nd tho’t…”have YOU ever taught a workshop”…. Now that is something I would sign up for without needing your advice to do so…ha..ha..
I’m with Patriot Girl – let me know when and where, and I’ll be there for that workshop:)
Awww … you guys are too kind. The only workshop I’m probably qualified enough to offer is one on procrastination. Now that, I’ve mastered.
PG, I’ve never gone on a workshop like that before. I say if it interests you, go for it! I do have a suggestion, though. Have you ever checked out Peterson’s photography books? Especially “Understanding Exposure” (I think there might be a sequel to that too) and “Understanding Shutter Speed.” Your local library might even have them on hand. If you have time, it might be a good idea to just look those over before attending the workshop. Then you’ll have more ideas about what to ask, etc.
Hi, Karen! Thanks for visiting!
Thanks so much IvoryHut.. I’ll take your advice.
As far as the Procrastination Workshop goes, I already have a PhD (i.e. Procrastination of the Highest Degree), so maybe we could teach it together!
Thanks again.
