Five Steps to Becoming a Bokeh Whore

There is no way for me to hide my love for bokeh, or the unfocused area of a photo. It was one of the contributing factors when I first started looking at purchasing a DSLR. It might seem like a silly thing to consider when buying such an expensive piece [...]

Peaches

Because I'm bored. Because I have no inspiration, and because it's 84° with 60+ percent humidity here is another fruit post.
Now, blueberries might look delicious and you can photograph them in many ways, peaches just taste (and have better colors) than them. I will actually bake stuff with peaches in [...]

Blueberries

I don't even like blueberries but I always seem to use them because my mom usually buys them more than strawberries. I refuse to bake something with them because I had a horrible experience with them two weeks ago, so the smoothie I made with them will have to do.
It [...]

A Photographer's MUST Download

In December when I first started to use my D90, I rarely edited the photos much before throwing them on flickr. I didn't really realize that it's almost impossible to get a PERFECT shot sooc. A couple weeks ago I stumbled onto Pioneer Woman's Action Sets.
They're absolutely wonderful. I would [...]

I Really Need To Finish This

Yup, that's the same scarf in this picture... with the same number of rows knitted. I can't believe I haven't made any progress on this and it's been over a month. It's just been sitting there. Doing nothing.
I was hoping to have it finished before Christmas break [...]

I Can't Get Over It

This always happens to me. I take this one picture I'm "meh" about, but then I edit it and OMG. I just can't stop looking at it. I continuously open flickr and look at it. The larger it gets the better it is. This time it's just a cup of [...]

Simply Delicious Chocolate Wafers

I'm not someone who really enjoys chocolaty things; especially when it comes to cookies. Most chocolate cookies are either way too sweet or are just bitter and disgusting. I've never had a chocolate wafer before, and since I needed to make them for my holiday dessert later this week, I [...]

Golden Hour

It was Brent who first turned me onto this thing called "Golden Hour". It's the time of day when the sun is no longer an intense white, instead it's a nice orange. It allows photos to be taking in the sunlight without the harsh exposure of normal sunlight. It happens [...]
