Weekly Photo Challenge (Fleeting Moment)

/ Janna Hill / 3 Comments

This has got to be this worst photograph I have ever taken (at least sober anyway) yet when I saw it Fleeting Moment is exactly what I conjured. I was attempting to snap a shot of a pair of hawks that hang out at the edge of the woods. I hurried and spun the camera and well… you get the picture. I looked through fifty other photos in trying to prepare this post and kept coming back to this cull. I think it is because it says more to me than any crystal clear image could. I titled it Time.

Weekly Photo Challenge (Create)

/ Janna Hill / 3 Comments

My creation was a happenstance epiphany of sorts.It occurred while making dinner just this night…

Summer Salads

Tuna salad ingredients and red skin potatoes cut for frying.
La Tuna Salad Complete
And for dessert My version of Fruit Salad

Sorry, I ate the fried potatoes before I could snap the picture. All of this creating made me hungry.

A Picture is Worth a Dozen Words

So four pictures would be worth how much?

Answer: four dozen eggs or forty eight matchsticks depending on what time of day it was. You can tell I majored in mathematical quantum physics, can’t you.

What is the point [and click] of this post? To tell you I found the battery charger to my little pocket sized camera and prove a point share what I learned.

Exhibit # 2
Exhibit #3
Exhibit #4

I love the lil pocket camera but… `nuff said 🙂

I borrowed this verse from a friend over at Authors Den because it seemed to fit my ‘photographic story’
IDLE THOUGHTS
LIFE’S TREASURES
 
Nothing is more beautiful
than the rising sun….
unless you count
sunsets….
and
the hours
between the two.

Beetles – June bug/Jean bug

This isn’t our common June bug. I found it on a pair of denim britches and so decided it is a Jean bug! Lame humor but it is a pretty neat looking beetle, huh?!

Just one more bug…

/ Janna Hill / Leave a comment

I am not an aspiring entomologist it’s just that bugs keep getting in front of my camera. I’m not a real photographer either but it does help quiet my mind when I take a break from writing. I saw this Cicada clinging to a Crepe Myrtle on my last walk at dusk and just had to share it. Now I’m going to get busy writing and leave the bugs alone but I reserve the right  to renege on the latter.
