One of my students wrote a Blues song for his quarterly project and Dirk play the guitar while the student played the base guitar and sang. It was quite entertaining. More project photos on Musings.

The image I have been working on in PS, nothing shot, but three old images combined to make one new one!

February 27

I have been working online in PS mostly, so the only pictures I have taken are those from my chair. This is Ginger again only allowing me to type with one hand.

February 26

I see her when she needs help with homework or a home cooked meal :)

February 25

I just took this picture tonight. I should have gone for a walk it was a pretty day, but I was busier than usually today.

February 23

I took a picture of this sad bunch of grapes because I hadn't taken a picture all day.

February 22

Silly 3 second shot taken for a challenge on DPS.

February 21

It was actually taken very, late on the 20th but processed on the 21st :)

So, this is proof that my husband has a warped sense of humor. We went to see Sweeny Todd yesterday. When I asked him what he wanted for dinner tonight he said "the worst meat pies in London." Well, he didn't get that, but he got my best meat, which is pretty darn good if you ask me. It contains no fingers or toes.

February 18

Such a pretty cold day, but I only snapped a couple of shots.

The Results Are In.....

Nathan's team did two dances and both got invited to the "World Competition" in Orlando, FL. Over 400 dances competed, 15 were chosen to move forward to the next level and of those 15 --5 receive cash assistance with their entry fees, Nathan's Jazz recieved a 'paid bid' and Pom 'a non-paid bid'.

Febuary 15

Off to Nationals! If you are interested, you are supposed to be able to watch the entire competition live at www.jamfest.com. Nathan competes for Dance Unlimited with the Senior All Stars. I am not sure how much internet access I will have, if any...so I might not 'see' anyone until Monday sometime. Have a great weekend!

Odd that today's photos are not mine, but both squirrels :)

This first image is one from a game on DPS "What would you do?" I spent lots of time working and erasing, working and erasing it today! So, the photo is not mine, but the final image is my creation.

This image is one taken with my camera, under my supervision, but not by me. It was taken by my student Asia. I was teaching her how to shoot in total manual mode under tough light conditions. I think she did a great job!

More flurries.

February 12

Juniper and Ginger couldn't figure out what was going on outside.

This is what happens to trees when they have 1/2 inch of ice coating them.

The chickens had to be put in the goat house last night, but they didn't leave it all day.


These are Angel's crunchy footsteps. We ended up with 6 inches of snow with 1/2 inch of ice over it.

February 11

Some possible shots for the winter assignment.

Lots more pictures on leftovers, it seems that I couldn't stop shooting today.

February 10

The only picture I took today.

February 9

While Nathan was at practice.....
I sat by the swollen river....
and watched the slow barges pass by......

Maybe that is why I bought Huck Finn for the next group novel today :)

February 8

Today was all about texture.

February 6

I know this is a lot of pictures, but the light was really inspiring and I took over 100 pictures on my lunch time walk. I may even post more on leftovers later.

Shrove Tuesday

Athena saw my eyes and wanted one of her own! It gave me time to practice more PS.

My dinner tonight!
My friend showing how wonderly decadent Shrove Tuesday is!
This one is for the Alphabet Word contest on DPS, I had to post it because Dirk was yelling at me for driving and shooting at the same time again, but I had to get a U- they are too rare :)

Hoping I get this posted before power goes out!
