Country Sunset

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 14:58:05 -0700

Hello, Everyone! I picked up my computer today. They really couldn't find anything wrong with it, but I had them back up all my pictures, so now if it does crash, at least I won't lose those. I had 215 shots to transfer from my camera. Don't ...

Another country hummingbird

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 16:35:50 -0700

This is the only good hummingbird photo that I was able to take yesterday. He looks like he is looking at me. I didn't realize that they have white in their tail feathers. May try again this evening. I'm going to try to get my water shots lo...

Last day in the city

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 10:48:35 -0700

Here are a few shots of some of the flowers in my daughter's yard. I can't wait to see these blown up to see the detail. I didn't take them because they were beautiful; I took them because they all had something unusual about them. I know, I...

I went to a wedding reception on Friday night. The photographs I chose for this week's photo quest were taken that night. As my "assignment", I picked these 8 photographs that I would use as a promotional brochure to show how the space can be u...

Busy day in the country

Baby came with me this evening when I went out to take pictures for this week's Photo Quest. This picture didn't make the cut for the contest, but I had to share it anyway. Didn't do any quilting today. Had a very nice visit with two of our s...

Shots for Photo Quest #15

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Sun, 11 May 2008 20:24:50 -0700

The weather had been so cool and rainy that it was late this afternoon before I went outside. This was taken about 7:30 pm, about 30 minutes before the sun set. It is a little sycamore tree that is just now leafing out. It was taken with a Can...

Being creative in the country

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Fri, 09 May 2008 20:34:29 -0700

I was taking pictures this evening for this week's Photo Quest. This one doesn't meet the qualifications exactly, but I liked it anyway. It is somewhat distorted by the resizing. It was taken in front of a window with no flash. I didn't do...

Photographs for photo quest #14

I took a lot of shots yesterday, both at home and at the party. I'm going to submit four, so you may have to kick one out! I wanted to explore some different angles for the pictures that I use to list my Country By Design items on Etsy. Thi...

Taking pictures in the country

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Thu, 01 May 2008 11:49:16 -0700

I'm trying to work on my compositions for my photographs for my Country By Design items on Etsy. The lighting wasn't very good. I may have to try moving the antique wash stand to a different wall. I do like the dark red background. The of...

What spring means to me - Photo Quest #13

nobody@vox.com(Country By Design) — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 17:48:32 -0700

Here's my description of spring in the hills of Missouri. I'm not sure if I like this picture of the red bud tree best, or the one I took yesterday. I had to go out earlier today because it was getting hazy. The sun angle was different toda...
