Orchids and Portraits

I photographed these orchids the same day I photographed the mums in the previous post. I was having a blast with the lighting! I have decided my room has the best light in our house. It has the least reflection off (orange and red!) roofs next door, and provides the whitest light. I also had fun photographing my sister in the same room a few days ago... and got some nice results!

 

It is so fun to discover great places to take photos....I've always had a hard time with indoor lighting, and it was great to find a place with good light! 

Reflectors + Painted Pots

I had fun playing with reflectors recently, and have a few photos to share...

These little pots are so unique that I just had to grab my camera!

An Adorable Little Boy with an Orange Bandanna

Isn't he one of the most adorable little kids? I saw him playing around during the Bible Dedication and just had to take a few photos of him. :)

How do you like his orange bandanna? It was part of the traditional tribal costume for the men there :)

Heading off into a busy weekend....

happy 11/11/11 to all of you :)

Sundown Clouds

The clouds at sunset were beautiful last night :)
A few of the photos I took...

5:30 Sunrise

I got up at 5:30 just to take these sunrise photos for my dear blog readers.

No, not really ;) I was up for other reasons. But I saw the clouds and the sun rising outside, and I knew I had to go take photos!

(all photos are SOOC...I was proud of myself for resisting the temptation of editing ;) )

Rising above the tree tops...

Do you see those black lines running through the bottom of the photo? Electrical wires. I'm about ready to go cut them down. Except..... I wouldn't have electricity if I did that. *sigh*

The sun rises so quickly!

I love the clouds in all of these photos :)

Cirrus clouds?

Oh, what a beautiful morning!

Lantana & Bougainvillea

 That last name is a mouthful.

Don't ask me how I pronounce it.

Just a few flower photos to show you today...

I know I over-edited the two photos above. Part of me likes it, part of me doesn't.... What do you think of them? :S I'd love to know...
