Tired







I have just spent 4 hours scraping and sanding. I was up last night until 3:30 am. I don't like it when my brain can't shut down and let...me...sleeeeep. However, my therapy of choice is still the house project, that should do just fine. I am tired, though. I feel like I shouldn't stop working, because the weather is good and it's not dark yet. I sound like my ex-husband when I say that...he would work in the fields until dark and I was always alone. Ah, well, at least there's no one waiting for ME to come in from the out of doors...

Dog park scans April 7th









































































































































I am really loving my dog park photos right now. I still haven't been up as often as I'd like, but when I do go the light is pretty good for the camera. (Since I can't change my shutter and aperture, I rely solely on film speed to help make the correct exposure.) I discovered something new the other day...as the dogs were jumping repeatedly for a stick, I shot from underneath them. This was an interesting experiment, I am going to try that again. Typically, my perspectives are from birds eye view (directly overhead) or down low, a dogs perspective. But shooting UP...now, that's something like the dogs perspective with a twist. Why didn't I think of this before??
