planes float in the air, right?
holga, no flash. i played with the highlights and color a tad with iphoto.
note: i was disappointed not to get a window seat on any of the 4 flights of our recent trip, so i politely asked the person in the window seat if i could snap a quick photo.

canon g10
macro setting
ambient light
set up: white cup, green tea bag, hammered spoon, white textured placemat underneath

Shot just a smidge above the cup on a mini tripod. Started without the spoon and realized the shot needed some contrast. Added in the spoon, and time elapsing helped water color. Sharpened in photoshop and tried the shadow/highlight filter which lightened up the tea to a nice yummy caramel color. Now looking at it, would be nice to have a highlight on the teabag for separation, looking flat. next time, on it.

i hate to be cliche but this zinnia lived for 2 months after i cut it from our front beds and i figured this would be a proper burial. there’s no shortage of empty jack daniels bottles at our house! other shots here.

top camera- d40 w/ macro filter
bottom camera- voigtlander brillant (extra dim viewfinder on that one!)

no retouching but would love for someone to tell me what to do about that hot spot?

Chloe and Olive play together a lot. This is at the end of Olive’s birthday party at a local park, and they’re both red-faced and tired from running around for a couple of hours, climbing on the jungle gym, going down slides and having fun on the swings. This is post-cake, too, so the sugar rush is long gone.

‘Time to go, Chloe! Olive, give Chloe a hug goodbye.’
