Trinket Box

Here's some photos of a trinket box I've had since I was a little girl. The ballerina sits on top as a cover, I should've taken a photo of what it looks like closed but sadly I didn't. Maybe some other time. Anyway I'm pretty happy with the way these came out. Also on deviantart here

It's snowing out again today, seems like I'm gonna have a white birthday this year. At least it's pretty.

Thanks for looking, have a good one!

Snowydees

It's snowing out today, yuck, Managed to get a few nice shots of some hungry little birds though, so that's a plus.

You can find at least the first photo on my deviantart account as well here

Thanks for looking! ^.^

A nuthatch also common in my area but harder to photograph as they're not as friendly as chickadees and easier to spook.

Autumn Tea

I was enjoying a nice warm cup of tea from the Keurig and decided this just might be pretty enough to photograph. The cookies weren't added until after I decided to take some photos, but they made a tasty addition that I had no problem eating. Anyway its Tetley black tea called "indulge", and those maple cookies are one of my families personal favorites. I've already posted two of these shots over on deviantart so feel free to view them there as well, linked down below. 

Taken using a Nikon D60 using a standard lens, edited in photoshop and photoscape.

Craft Time: Lightbulb Ornaments

 ~Here's a fun and simple craft I started for Christmas. It's really inexpensive and works great as a unique gift for Christmas exchanges. All you need is an old (I used new light bulbs because they were only from the dollar store and I had no burnt out ones on hand) and acrylic paint. Once I'm done their faces I will add tiny hats, mittens, or scarves as an added touch.
Merry Christmas and Happy Crafting!

 As you can see I haven't finished mine yet, the only one with a finished face is Rudolph.

 Frosty's face has been drawn on with a felt tip marker so I can plan out what I'm going to paint. I also use marker for the eyelashes and lids as it's a lot easier then trying to get a precise brush stroke.

I haven't added anything to hang them from the tree yet but wire or string would work.

Rose Shoot

Been Awhile

I love university but it makes it so hard to have time for photography. So here's some shots I haven't gotten around to uploading until now.
