Welcome to my blog!

Welcome to my blog!

I love photography so this blog will showcase my pictures. You will see (hopefully) some nice pictures, some bad pictures and some experimental pictures (that would be the pictures I take when I dare push the settings button on my camera beyond Auto).

Clueless


This is one of my favorite statues. However, I have no idea what it means. It's three female figures standing in a pile of Wellington boots. If anybody have an explanation or suggestion, please share.

Mirror, mirror


A pond with still water mirroring the rocks. Next I'll try to get a picture of the rock both in the water and on land. And then you can guess which rock is the original and which is the mirrored one.

Furballs


Oh boy, taking pictures of new little ducklings is not easy. They're constantly on the move to find something to eat so fluffy ducklings turn into blurry ducklings when photographed. I don't think any of the piccies I took are quite in focus. But they're cute anyway so here's a bonus piccie for you. If you wait for perfect, you will find yourself emptyhanded (or in this case pictureless).

A perfect rose


How about a perfect rose? And it's pink so my theme continues. Actually, in real life I think it's red but it looks pink in the photograph. Mental note to self; next summer, check real life color of above rose.

Friday tree


I was standing under the huge branches of this chestnut tree taking the picture from inside out trying to capture the sun shining on the golden leaves. It shows the colors of the leaves in a whole different way than taking the pic standing outside of the tree. Fall looks much more beautiful from this angle.

Day after Halloween


It was Halloween yesterday and the scariest picture I have is of a spiderweb without a spider. Not much me thinks. I've found that it's not easy taking pictures of spiderwebs, not if it is a big web. This was woven between the lowest branch in a chestnut tree and a street sign, therefore a bigger size than usual. With the right angle you can get the camera to actually focus on the thin threads and voila, you have a picture. I took this one early one morning last summer, the spider was probably still in bed sleeping.
