photos from last May & les archives - still haven't figured out my camera uploading business (sigh)
Bells, whistles & happiness.
I haven't stopped taking pictures, thankfully my new camera's memory card holds about 1400 images & bonjour to that !! I did something the other day hit a button, turned a dial, something ? by accident & now my most recent images taken are of a square format. Which is OK I used to have a Mamiya 2.25 camera years ago - the negatives 2.25 x 2.25 and at that time I really loved a square format. This new camera of mine the Canon PowerShot G12 has loads of bells & whistles and from what I can tell they're all great b's & w's. I just haven't had the time (or inclination truthfully) to study my manual. I also haven't had time this week to go to Lynda.com* & take myself a tutorial re: Adobe Bridge, iphoto & uploading images (thank you to Moose for the helpful email) ... it's on my list for this week though.
I had the most glorious day yesterday. Farmers Market, buying bedding plants & tiny new perrenials, hanging laundry on the line & then spent all afternoon hauling dirt & mulch, planting my new little plants & moving things around to new just created beds while the prince planted our wee vegetable garden. I don't think I've ever had a happier day ... ever. We barbequed last night & sat outside in the back with the dogs and the birds and then watched the movie Milk (I for the second time). Such a great movie about a great man ! From the movie's excellent soundtrack - tell me you can stop yourself from dancin' to this one. Ah disco.
* omg CS6 ?!? I'm still using CS3 - more sighing ;-) oh my but wait this Creative Cloud monthly plan sounds fantastic

The happiness that seeps down deep into our ever-striving bones is usually full of sunshine, rest, and simple things.
ReplyDeleteI love the way happiness catches us unawares at times, a stretch while partaking of a sip of fine beverage in good company,face to the warm sun.
Lovely images you've captured Susan.
Digging in the dirt, hanging laundry and planting stuff -- my idea of a wonderful day too ! Then getting ready for bed with that wonderful good-tired, feeling.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a marvellous day.
My favourite shot is the window sill photo of the two vases.
Just in case you want to change the aspect ratio....
