Something about using a viewfinder instead of the LCD screen makes me feel so much more like a photographer. I&rsquo;ve been reading my way through the manual (and forgetting most of it) and taking pictures of Abby, Rob and my plants all week. I&rsquo;ll still be using my little orange point-and-shoot when I'm out and about. It ...

Some weeks I'll download every evening; others I wait a few days. When I emptied my camera last night there were pictures going all the way back to the 21st.</p><br/><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.inapeanutshell.com/images/offthecamera_1.jpg" alt="" /></p><br/><p>There were some photographs of a group of ptarmigan I saw on my way to meet Rob after work.

I should have been posting as we went along but just never got around to it. The course is through Willette Designs and is completely over the internet. It's designed for everyone who looks at their photos but never sees themselves and is all about getting you into your pictures (if you noticed me upload a zillion self portraits to Flickr a little while ago that what that was about).</p><br/><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="htt...

We thought it might be a bit cool and overcast, and sometimes it was, but it was perfect - not too hot, not too bright and with a bit of a breeze. The trail was easy to follow and just challenging enough to work up a good appetite for the hot dogs and s&#39;more...

I found the picture in my &quot;blog this&quot; folder today and can&#39;t remember why I put it there. Must have been a knitting woes story. I&#39;d tossed my knitting bag onto the couch and then sat on it as far as I can tell: I was was working the heel of my sock...

I&#39;m not given to grand thoughts or deep introspection but I think it is important to have some quiet, introspective time today, to remember those who have fought and died for for our freedoms and beliefs, and to think of those who are taking up that calling now. <br /><br />These photos are from a walk I took for an afternoon bre...

Zeke, walking away from the water dish, was just a little more interesting this time.

These are some tulips we picked out at the grocery store on Saturday. I love the way they&#39;ve opened up.

I&#39;ve been finding myself more and more interested in taking pictures - framing, lighting, etc. - and thought a challenge like this would help me think this way on a regular basis.

I spent Monday trying to think up a witty blog entry but failed completely and thought I&#39;d just show you a bunch of pictures like last time. As a started to pick and choose I discovered that I had way more pictures than I could reasonably force you to load in a blog entry so I&#39;m just going to show off my nifty gallery features and put up a bunch of pictu...

The sun was out and the light in our kitchen was lovely. I felt so important and professional using my tripod. The yarn was very well behaved. I would just plunk down a skein and the camera would focus and the sun would shine. It was so easy. I got 49 pictures of yarn from my stash (do ...
