Taking a stroll through NoHo with my camera to get lunch today, saw this old door infront of one of the houses.

I took this picture in my NEW backyard. We have enough limes for a years worth of Corona’s.

This is one of the first pictures I took of Bizzie Princess in our new house. We just moved out of our overcrowded condo into a larger house with a big yard for the kids to play in. This is BP in the afternoon after we spent the day trying to pack up the condo. I think the craziness was getting to her.

Week 3: 52 Week Self-Portrait Challenge

Self-Portraits are the biggest challenge for me. I don’t think I’m “photogenic” at all. Anyway I tooke this shot using my 50mm on manual focus. I was on an emergency exit stairwell in a parking garage. Since I didn’t have a tripod I used the stairs to rest the camera on.

Day 1 – 50mm for 50 days

S. Elie — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 08:18:05 +0000

I decided to play with some photos this evening to keep me from losing my mind. For some reason all of the attributes/options on my store are displaying the same small/medium and large/x-large as the ONLY option. Instead of driving myself crazy trying to figure out what went wrong I decided to work on some pictures.

WHAT I DID:
I took this picture in very low light using my 50mm lens and camera’s flash. Getting my son to keep still is next to impossible.

EDITING:
I recently purchased an action set from MCPActions.com and decided to play around with some of them. I should have recorded which one I used, but of course I did not.

WHY:
I love this picture because my son is always flashing some crazy face expressions, my goal is to try and capture as many as I can before he grows out of them.

There is a flickr group that is launching today challenging photog’s to capture images using their 50mm for 50 days. I decided to participate so I can get more comfortable using my prime lens. I’m used to zooming so it’s been an adjustment.
