fall fair, take two {250/365}

posted by on · 12 Comments

There's a reason I'm posting a shot from yesterday.

Y'see, today was back to school day, and since daughter started school way back in JK, every year I take the traditional back to school, leaving in the morning, shot. Every single year.
And today was no exception.

The only exception is that she just may murdilate me in my sleep should I post those photos here.

So ... here's a pony :)

Wouldn't he have made a great shot for the timeworn prompt at the Sunday Creative?

hmmmm ... wonder if it's too late to switch. heh.

Fall Fair {249/365}

posted by on · 4 Comments

I've been looking forward to my town's Fall Fair for a few weeks now.  And right up until this weekend, we'd been having record breaking high temperatures for this time of year.

Of course, come the last long weekend of the summer, temperatures dropped and the clouds rolled in.

I'm blaming Earl.

I finally managed to get there and snag a shot or two, in between the raindrops ...

It's not the bright, fluffy clouded image I was after, but it's working for me (except for that weird cloud in the middle that looks like a smudge - I can't decide if it bothers me or not. heh)

Edited in lightroom and photoshop, and with two textures from Miss PareeErica.

Happy Labour Day to my fellow Canadians.

and a Happy Labor Day to my (misspelling) friends in the States :)

summer fun {206/365}

posted by on · 8 Comments

Last night, I walked over to the little midway that's set up next to the Ribfest going on here in town.  I had my mind set on ideas for the Sunday Creative prompt "traditions" and summer midways are nothing but traditional.  They're a staple.

As usual, my brain went pffffttttt in thinking that I had until today to get my post up.

Nope.  Last night.

Whatever.

That's me ... day late and a dollar short :p

Anyways ...

I took these daytime ones today

and this one is my shot for today

candied apples 206/365

These are from last night, playing around with long exposure without a tripod
(again ... brain ... none)

from day 206

but they didn't turn out too bad.

And then look at this fun shot that showed up!

take me to your leader

Repeat after me .... 'take me to your leader' (use zombie voice).

Cracks me up :)

(larger, on black, here if you're on the new flickr)

So yeah ... Sunday Creative - last week's edition :)

I should probably start doing these a little earlier in the week. Right?

Maybe.
