These are some pics of work buddies this winter. I love you all and I miss you. I love it here though. I had my first day of class today, I wasn't even there an hour but he wanted to send us home and told us to do some reading for class tomorrow. I dont think that will happen often so I will appreciate it!

This Lingcod is almost 4 feet long!

That star fish is bigger than my brother!

Look Kristy, a kite!

Just to help you get an idea of how big things are, these logs and half as wide as Josh is long! Most are about 3-4 feet in diameter!

This is Josh, he is much better looking when he isn't wearing his goggels!

I wanted the viewer to be drawn to the pig's snout, so I placed it to the side but then I loose the pig. Is that ok?
I hated to cut out any of this picture, but once I saw how nice it looked by placing the focal flowers on the top, right corner, I was happy.

There was not a lot of editing I could do with this picture, but the circle is top and side. I think it works well and it keeps your eyes moving.

Though the tree takes up most of the picture, eyes are drawn to the side bridge where the plowers are.

I tried to place the duck in a pleasing place, but it may just be too small.

The flower I am trying to draw attention to here is the one on the left, top/central

This is in Turtle town. I did not get any good shots of the turtle, but it swam right under me!

I entered this pic of my mom in the fair last year and I got 3rd place. I was about 3 feet under water and she was sitting on the platform of the boat.

This is in Monikini

These are some of the pictures that I entered in the fair this year. Both were taken in the Honolulu area.

Homework

2009-04-04T19:02:00.000-07:00

This is my first blog to my classmates! I guess I need to answer the questions on the homework that Renne gave us.

Why do you take photos?
I want to capture memories, moments and beautiful images.

What do you take photos of?
Family and friends mostly
Shooting scenery, I love to get sun sets, landscape and underwater photos. Some times flowers capture me too.

Why that subject?
Well, not just one subject, but family and Friends is to capture the moment. I love to scrapbook so that gives me new stuff to scrapbook.
Underwater is because I want to show others what I get to see. That is a new goal for me, but I want to tackle it.

Come on, what is the real reason.
I think that is it, I want to impress people with what I can photograph.

Do you have a theme to your work? Yes, people I know and places I have been.

What kind of photos do you want to take?
In the moment. I wish I could get better candid shots, but whenever I do not have people pose, they are not looking at the camera and the picture is just awful cause they are looking down or something. I would love to get better at candid shots.

How will you achieve that goal?
I guess by learning to be active. If I can't get the shot from that angle, go to another one. I think I have a lot to learn.

Will you share your photos?
Yes

My first blog!

This is my first blog. I have never done this before, but I need somewhere to share what I am learning with my classmates and I also need somewhere to post my pictures. We will see how I do with my first blogging experience!
Cheers,
Kristy
