Rose Coloured

Rose Coloured

I didn’t post any photos in November, because I actually didn’t take any. I opened my gallery to pick one and realized that I hadn’t even picked up my camera in over a month.

December was starting to go the same way until the holiday break when I got a chance to take a few shots, but still not very many. Wasn’t feeling particularly creative I guess.

This photo is actually just me playing with the macro function on my point and shoot. The roses were a birthday present from my family.

Perhaps in the new year I’ll be more inspired to photograph things and maybe even blog.

Under A Waxing Gibbous Moon…

Waxing Gibbous Moon

The above photo was taken with a new telephoto lens I’m borrowing to test out. It is fairly obvious from the rather blurry photo that it was not on a tripod at the time I took this. I still need to play with it a little to figure out what I would actually take photos of with it, but it could be fun. Photography wise I really didn’t get out shooting much this month. It is the end of October already? I’m quickly losing the year. November starts tomorrow and I am wishing it was still a week away (at least). Work wise I am hoping November will be nice and busy and I will spend very little time being sent home due to lack of work, but personally I am dreading another November where I am participating in NaNoWriMo. Which quite possibly might mean more photography and blogging at my other site due to procrastination. Or you know hell could freeze over and I could find myself entirely motivated and unable to tear myself away from the novel writing process, only time will tell.

West Coast Waves

B&W Tofino I went to the West Coast of the Island for only the second time in my life. Indigo Eve and I went camping. We had a great time and both tried to capture the spirit of our trip. I ended up taking a lot of photos, but still come back to this one. I love the different layers it has, I made it black and white because the small amount of colour it had just seemed to detract.
If you want to see some my other shots you can check out the Flickr set here. By the end of September between Tofino and taking photos at the finish line of MOMAR, I managed to take around 900 photos. It felt like the month flew by with all that shutter clicking. Hopefully this is the start of me actually using my camera more often.

Um, I was bored…

Nautical Days Fireworks 2009No really, I got bored, realized I hadn’t posted a photo yet for August.

This is what happens, I make odd videos. I apologize.

 

Hovering

Hovering  

This is kind of how I feel I spent most of July. In constant motion, hovering around.

I took over 700 photos in July, 95% of which were of S&S’s wedding. Of course I now have that many photos to sort through for them. I’m hoping I can trim that down to about 100 – 200.
