Would you believe I took this shot off of a reflection of a lake?

No?

Well, good, because it's not.

The moon was blinding and I wanted a shot of it. It was clear so I took the tripod out to the back yard.

I've done moon shots before so I tried moving off the deck. It wasn't until I got to the computer that I saw the branch. I actually thought it looked kind of neat and that if you flipped your brain, it kind of looked like it was trying to TOUCH THE MOON.

Oh, yes. Profound.

I wanted the moon halo too, and it's sort of there. I closed down the aperture and slowed down the shutter for some movement, but I couldn't get both clouds/halo and clear moon at the same time.

Look! It's nature!

I took a quick jaunt into the Coal Creek Trail by the Tiger Mountain trailhead. My mom and I walked it last summer when we first got Bella and I had a few minutes to kill between errands this morning. I shot it with my kit lens, the 18-55, because it is wider when zoomed out. I think I'm going to try using that a little more, instead of always going with the 50mm.

I got out of the house today with the family but didn't bring my camera. I brought Marci's Canon PowerShot SX110IS and took a few shots, but nothing really stood out.

I thought I might have another run-in with Johnny Law today as I was in public snapping away. First off was at Macy's, in the waiting area outside the girl's dressing room. Perhaps not the wisest place to shoot, but there was a cool color combination just inside the doorway. I liked the colors, but the composition, not so much. Take a look.

Anyway, the picture I took was from my back yard. I took Bella out for her morning business and saw the mist and sun behind the trees. I ran inside and grabbed the camera and snapped away. Some were in color and then I took some in B&W with a sepia filter (in camera). I thought this one turned out best and, well, there you go.
