A Few More With The SP-350

Here are a few more captures from the Olympus SP-350. This is somewhat of an eclectic mix. Since I am planning on using this camera a jack-of-all-trades for the foreseeable future I think this good. So diversity in subject matter as well as composition is the goal in trying to get the most out of my SP-350. Till the next time, Enjoy My Friends!

Not a great shot but it just pops for me.

I just love the different expression of the figures in this one. The front two are made out of used golf balls.

i took this last fall before giving up on the SP-350...but it is not a bad capture, no? — I took this last fall before initially giving up on the SP-350…but it is not a bad capture, no?

The Olympus SP-350: Here We Go Again!

I have a used Olympus SP-350 that I have a love/hate relationship with. I am trying (again) to get the most out of this sweet yet frustrating little camera. Here are the latest from my SP-350. Enjoy my friends!

A Few Poppies and Something Else

There is a wonderful patch of wildflowers not far from my work. The land is owned by the city but a local doctor seeded it with the flowers several years ago. He pulls up the weeds and watches over it with great care. I stopped by to take pictures of the poppies there, since the state mowed the ones by the Interstate, and found this pink one among the mix.

The “something else” is the white and blue flower pictured below but I have had zero luck in identifying it. If someone knows what it is please leave a comment. Until then enjoy!

Using The Zoom

I am using my Powershot SX10is more as of late. I bought it use to replace my beloved Powershot S3is. I have neglected the SX10is because compared to the S3 it is just o.k. So here are a few of nature, on a very windy day, using the long end of the zoom on the SX10is. These were taken without a tripod or mono-pod so I am pleased they came out as well they did. Did I mention it is a very windy day?

Thankful Thursday

Pondering Things and Taking Pictures

Thank you, the American soldier, for all you do and have done. And thank you to those who gave it all in service of their country.

Take Care Because They’re Every Where

This is my PSA for the year: This Memorial Day Weekend, and going forward, please watch out for motorcycles. Motorcyclists are Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Brothers and Sisters. In other words they are Family. Please beware of their presence and give them the room they need.

Here are a few close-ups if you must see them close up but otherwise Take Care Because They’re Every Where!
