Dayna at the Grotto

I highly doubt anyone reads this blog that doesn't also see me on Facebook - but just to continue what I started I thought it appropriate to post this set of my 3 favorites Dayna and I took this previous week.

If any of you have been to the Portland Grotto, you know just being in the presence of some of these statues instantly transforms your state of mind to a far more peaceful state. Dayna did an absolutley wonderful job capturing what we where both feeling at the time.

Enjoy.

Sunsets

Hey everyone!

Thanks for leaving such great comments so far. I really appreciate it! As promised, here are a few of my favorite sunsets and sunrises. I tried to show the best variety I could between shots to give a fresh look when these are all put together. All of these are completely untouched, or touched up very little. After all, when it comes to photographing God's handy work, the only flaws are in the camera itself! If you feel so inclined, please feel free to use these or any of my other postings as computer screen backgrounds. It's really only commercial use that I'm apposed to since I have this little fantasy of some of these actually being sold at some point.

I'm letting ya'll pick next weeks theme: People and kids (not my strong suit, but I try), Some of my best Photoshoped random works (some are pretty crazy), or Landscapes of Oregon and Washington (including building landscapes and a lightning strike).

Enjoy!

The Beginning, and a close up look at Flowers

So I've decided to have a photography blog for 2 reasons: this will serve as encouragement to get out and take more photos, and I'm genuinely curious if there is an interest for my style and perspective. I want to canvas more of my work, but if its crap I'd rather swallow hard now and try my hand at something else before I lose any more of my hair. I will try and post once a week on Fridays, but this is a trial run.

Please Comment. Thats why I'm doing this and feel free to say exactly what you think as I have a pretty thick skin. However - don't bother checking my spelling cause we would be here all night.

With out further ado - Here are a few photos I took while Dayna was recouping from her surgery. Bonus points if you can identify the type of flowers.

PLEASE ASK FOR PERMISSION BEFORE USING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

(or whatever I'm suppose to say these days)

Till next Friday!
