Random Photos

I haven't taken any photos for a while and these photos were from the batch I've taken on my husband's birthday a little over 2 weeks ago. We were sitting waiting for our food at the winery and while waiting I took a few photos of the candle and our drinks! LOL! The restaurant was so dim that I really couldn't take any other photos without turning my flash on which I didn't want to do.

I'm not exactly happy with these photos but decided to post them any way. I'm not going to give the specs either. I'm just posting the photos for fun but I did take the photos on AP without flash.

I'll see if I can find a good subject for my photos this week.

I like this shot because you can see my husband in the background. I don't like how the candle look. . too bright and not very focused but I like the photo set up with the 2 drinks and my husband silhouetted in the background. I like the composition not necessarily the photo. What do you think.

I was thinking of changing service. . .like Typepad but I don't want to pay for the service. I like that Typepad allows larger photos without having to modify the size. With blogger, you have a set size and when you modify it by dragging the size, the photo gets distorted which I don't like. I guess I'll stick to blogger until I get better with taking photos.

Low Light Night Shot

Can you tell I'm in love with these photos? LOL! There's no editing with these photos and I think they came out better than I expected. We went over to the winery last night to celebrate my husband's birthday. While there, I decided to take photos of the entrance to the restaurant.

I took several shots but the sequence of these photos is showing the same object from a distance and closer shots with each photo. Don't the photos look like paintings? I love them!

Dog in Play

You're probably wondering what the significance of these photos are? I had told my husband that I felt that people looking at my photos probably wonder why I post them on my blog and he told me that people may understand them better if I told the story behind the photos. It may explain the significance as to why I posted them in the first place.

Why these two photos? Well, as a person learning photography, sometimes you see something in a photo that makes you say "wow, cool". Well, I felt this way when I looked at these photos. We were at the mall, a few weeks ago and we saw a few puppies at the pet store inside a glass display.

There were 3 dogs; two were playing and biting one another and the other just standing there watching them. What I like about the photos is that I was able to capture both the crazy movement of the two playing dogs and the stillness of the one lone dog. Typically, the photo of the still dog would be blurry but with these photos, my camera was able to focus really nicely of the still objects and still capture the movement of the dogs rolling around biting one another!

Now do you see why I like these photos? Believe or not but these were taken on "auto mode".

Poor pup, he looks like he is wondering what has got into the other two dogs. I think that labrador is one of those "thinking" types. . .LOL!!

I have a few more photos to upload so be sure to return some time today!!
