This one proves I actually left the house today!

This one is to show I am working on this week's DPS assignment 'eyes', but I am not there yet!
Coco is on serious pain meds now. He is happier, but loopy!

Working on my photoshop skills for a game on DPS
Storm that knocked out power!
Another game on DPS

I just realized that I haven't left the house, really haven't left two rooms of my house since I came home from the dance exhibition on Sunday night!

I have so much more to learn about action shooting. These were shot at ISO 3200 (hence all the 'noise'), most were 70mm, and I tried to keep the F/stop between 5.6 and 8. I am thinking I need to open it up to 4.5 and bring the ISO down to 1600 or even 800. Hopefully, the stage lighting will be better than gym lighting (I haven't said lately how much I HATE gym lighting :) )

It is a good thing this is my blog and I make the rules! I don't want to post one picture today, I feel like putting up a few. I think I have finally settled on this one for my assignment entry this week. I Took it a few days ago, but I processed it today.
I like this one, but don't think it is minimal enough.
These are the two I actually took today, but again I don't think this first one is minimal enough.
This one is minimal, but so many people have done amazing candle shots that I don't think mine would add anything to the thread.

I am not super happy with this shot, but it is part of the series that I was taking for the current assignment at DPS (minimalism). I think I need to keep working.

On Wednesday we got back to studying. It was a strangely 'normal' day.
Today, we did a lot of cooking. For recipes and more food pictures check out Musings.

January 20, 21, 22......(they all ran together anyway)

This shot is a good cross section of the almost 200 people who attended my mom's memorial service.
This is Kayleigh and Erwin discovering they were wearing matching hats.....Kayleigh had stolen the hat fom her dad ;)
This is the one cake I kept for the family. I spent the day baking cookies, cakes, and cupcakes for the nurses at Hospice and the Hospital. This is the first time I tried a checkerboard cake. It was spice and coconut with creamcheese and Amaretta icing.
Somethings don't suffer from language barriers.
Back to school, a game and a 'normal' life.
