Photo of the Day 0005
One of my Mom’s purple tulips before it bloomed. I do love photographing tulips, but I don’t have any in my yard. I try not to put flowers in my yard that don’t bloom for very long. Sorry tulip!

Photo of the Day 0004
A pair of my Mom’s tulips. For the first time in several years, I actually didn’t make it down to Pella to take any tulip pictures. I blame the lousy winter that never quits.

Fun with everybody’s favorite golden and my new wide angle lens. It is hard to believe that such an innocent face could ever do anything wrong!

More “early” bloomers from my yard. I don’t actually know what these flowers are though.
Photo of the Day 0001
First flower to bloom in my yard this year. Because like 1 person missed me, I am returning to blogging, but not at the level of ambition I may have shown in the past. I’m going to throw up 1 picture a day. No particular theme, just a photo a… Read More »Photo of the Day 0001

RIP Alpha 35
The Alpha 35 is officially dead. It could be resurrected but the cost is, as they say, prohibitive. It will now sit on a shelf with the rest of the retired cameras. The picture above is the last picture the Alpha 35 ever took. It is the last picture from… Read More »RIP Alpha 35
First Picture with the Alpha 65
I recently broke down and purchased a new camera as my 1st string camera is in the shop for some repairs on its card slot. The original company I sent it to couldn’t fix it and had to send it on to the manufacturer. I became paranoid that the camera… Read More »First Picture with the Alpha 65

Sabbatical
A picture I’ve been meaning to post for some time. I just thought I should make a formal announcement that I am going to take a sabbatical from blogging formally.

Becke Family Portraits
A few months back I met up with the Becke family and did some portrait work for them. Here are a few of my favorites from that photo shoot: I should reiterate that the pictures I like aren’t always the pictures that the clients like. C’est la vie!

Spirit Week
One of the most popular weeks at the Computer Mine is Customer Service Week. There are lots of theme days and people get to dress up in costumes. The week climaxes with the crowning of a Customer Service Week King and Queen. It reminds me of Spirit Week at dear… Read More »Spirit Week
