About Me

My photo
I am usually typing on a computer most of the day, but today I am trying my hand at a new project: My 2011 365-Day Photo Journey. I gained a love for photography when I was required to take a fine arts class for college--I chose photography. The course required a lot of work--Professor Loehr saw to that--but it opened my eyes to a new world. It's been many years since I took that class and I don't know how much I actually remember, but following Laura Delagal's 365 Photo Journey and watching my niece's love for taking pictures has peeked my interested in photography again. Although I don't have a professional camera, I did receive a really nice Sony digital (point-and-shoot) camera from my sweetie for Christmas this year. Going through some difficult times in my life, I thought that undertaking my own 365-day photo journey might be a way to relieve a little stress and have some fun with my new toy. Through this journey I will capture some of life's joy and its pain, but I will also be able to refocus the lens of my life on the many wonderful things that God has created. Well, here goes. Wish me luck!

Day 101 - 4-11-2011



Magnolia Tree

I love Magnolia blossoms.  In fact, when I took my photography class, that was my final photo that I framed and matted-a photo of a magnolia.  Of course, I was actually looking into the magnolia.  This magnolia was a little too high in the tree for me to get a real good pic of it.  And since there were only two blossoms on the tree, well, I didn't have too many options.  Still, it was just too lovely to pass up.  Don't you think so?

P.S.  This was SOOC.  Still having computer problems, so I do not have any way of editing any of my photos when I am not able to set up the shot the way I would like.  They are what they are!

  1. I love magnolia blossoms as well! Unfortunately, they are mostly too high up to get a great picture. The same with the tulip tree blossoms.
