had some fun with shadow pictures… it reminded me of the great photography class I took with a colleague many years ago… we had so much fun…
the vase looks pretty cool in these photos…
enjoying the afternoon sunshine…

I’ve been taking an online iPhone photography course…
it has been excellent so far and I have enjoyed practising a few of the things I’ve learned… and I even got some pretty good pictures of the fish today…
happily, I’ve also realized that I already know many of the tricks of the trade…

took this picture of the trees out the back before I left the house…
reminded me of a colleague who we lost to cancer a few years ago… she and I had taken a photography course together and the picture was similar to one that I took at that time as part of our homework…
later in the day I was working on a computer and came across her name…
seemed rather serendipitous…
she had a wonderful artistic streak and a great eye… we worked well together and she taught me a lot… one of my favourite things was how she showed me to add a URL into a Facebook post and then delete the URL once the link had opened up so that the post looked cleaner… a little thing but it makes a huge difference…
a very special woman…

one of my projects this Christmas was a gift for my colleagues…
after considering what to make for them, chose mouse pads with some of my photography… the pictures were from our visit to Atlanta in June…
once the photos were chosen, and the pads produced, I had to pick which one went to which person… sometimes I have the individuals choose, but decided this time to pick for each one…
set out the pictures and then used little notes to be sure I had just the right one for each member of the team…
once the decisions were made, I prepared a card and wrapped each one up…
at the end of the day on Monday I put them into their mail slots…
it is such fun to choose, prepare and give gifts… so blessed to have the time and resources to do this…
