...And Another Location

I just got permission to hang a bunch of prints up at Cinnamonster. I'll post my progress soon.

A Gallery!

On Tuesday I will be hanging up some of my florals (matted and framed) in a great little florist shop near my home.

I'm very excited about it, I'll keep you posted.

Hanging My Kids

I am anxious to hang my kids on the wall! As soon as I get these prints back from WHCC, then I will hang them up in this nifty frame that I have.

Maternity

I thought I'd experiment with some Maternity photos. So, I grabbed my sister in-law and my brother and snapped a few shots.

I actually learned quite a few things while experimenting with this niche of photography. For example wait until the woman is REALLY pregnant... don't shoot too early. Her belly wasn't nearly big enough.

I'm also learning about making the client feel very comfortable so that they are relaxed. Jokes and patience are mandatory, I think

Here's a few shots from my experiment.

Flickr Now Does Videos

Yesterday Flickr unveiled a new tier to their online sharing community -- VIDEO.

This morning the functionality to actually upload those videos magically appeared

There's some limitations -- no longer than 90 seconds or 150mb and only PRO members can upload...probably to keep the files quick and easy... they seem to include all the features that a photo has (groups, sets, comments, embedding, sizes, etc).

I'm not sure what I think... the content could be more overwhelming than it already is and I don't do much video related ... or will I?

I am curious to see how this affects Flickr community -- will it become divided into videographers and photographers? Will it be like the skiers and snowboarders going down the same run?

New Flower Photos

Bright Colors are everywhere in California right now!

I'm totally on a bright color "kick" right now... even wanting to exaggerate some colors!

Here's some examples of what I've been up too. These flowers are in my own back yard.

Of course these images are for purchase either Here or Here
