Sharing photos

Unread post by **webmaster** » 23 Jun 2007, 15:10

I love photography and I've just got a new digital camera so I'm taking photos all over the place.
I thought I'd share a few recent ones and hope others might want to do the same.

I'd love to see pics of where people live, the area etc but whatever you wanted to share would be fine.

Here are a few I took out of the window (!) a few days ago:

And this is a dog I tried to get to smile for the camera but he was more
concerned about when his mistress was coming back out of the shop:

WOOF!!!

And this is the coffee bar two doors away from where I live:

It's a nice cafe and they have musicians playing regularly.

Look forward to seeing some of your personal pics!

This is Tommy...we rescued him back in November. Can you believe someone would part with him. He's a great guy and quite a character.

He's a lovely little dog! Is he a good football player?

And you've got a lovely garden by the looks of it.
I had to move last year but before that I loved the garden where I lived and used to sit out there in the summer reading.
It was such good 'therapy'! Luckily the view from my flat is good as you can see.

Your photos are great, you two. I really want to visit England someday soon.

This is a great idea, Bryan. I love photography, too, but really need to devote some serious time to it, which I haven't done yet. But here are some pics of my beloved tiels, Indy and Gris. Indy is named for Indiana Jones, because he's such an intrepid explorer and climber. I have fewer pics of Gris because he doesn't like the camera as much (or he isn't as big a ham) as Indy, but he's such a sweetheart.

Here is Gris, with his big beautiful round eyes...

Here is Indy singing along, possibly with Doris...

Indy, attacking the evil enemy disguised as a toy...

"What, Daddy? I'm not doin' nuthin'..."

And napping after a full day of adventure...

I'm also a camera nut. I don't have a digital camera - I use the old fashioned 35 mm.
This isn't where I live - but - it's the place we love to go. It's the Northshore of Lake Superior in Minnesota. It is the most beautiful place I've been -- except for Hawaii !! If you've never seen it - you should try it out sometime.

These are north of Duluth on the northshore.

These are in Duluth

It's a beautiful place !!

WOW, Toni, I had no idea the area around Duluth was so beautiful! Thanks for sharing those gorgeous photos. Another place to add to my itinerary!

John - It truely is a beautiful place. The lake is so large it feels like the ocean - it has a northeast coast feel.
Those are beautiful photos Tanja - thanks !

This is Grand Portage Minnesota - near the Canadian border.

Grand Marais MN lighthouse

Grand Marais bay

Minnesota - known as the land of 10,000 lakes -- It snowed on our trip last Oct. - this is one of the lakes.

And this is one of my favorite photos - sparkling MN lake

Thanks for letting me share those !
Toni

What beautiful photographs you have all posted - thanks for sharing

.
I have tried to post some but have not been able to figure out how yet.

Unread post by **webmaster** » 24 Jun 2007, 16:21

Yes, great photos.

Sheila, see the "How To" section or ask someone for help.

Could we see some of the pics taken in Carmel this year?
Doesn't have to be of people if you don't want. Just the area,
Doris' hotel, etc. And please make a new topic for them. Thanks

Sheila · Unread post by **Sheila** » 25 Jun 2007, 02:17

Thanks Bryan, I'll read it again and have another go. Yes I would like to see the Carmel photographs too.
Must have been a wonderful experience for the people who made it this year. Here's hoping that I can make it next year!!

Thank you everyone! Those are marvelous and beautiful photos! Photography is my hobbie, although I don't do it justice. I'm still learning.

Annie and John, absolutely love your pets. Wonderful clear photos! John the expressions on your sweet Tiels were priceless.

Bryan...loved your photos. Your new digital camera takes excellent pictures...What Dig. camera do you use?

Tanja and Toni....I'm coming with you next time you visit those gorgeous places

This is my little buddy Peetzie. He follows me everywhere, and has an extensive vocabulary. I have had him since he was 3 months old, and he is now 9 years old~He is such a joy to me and the family.

Pam, your budgie, Peetzie, is adorable. I love his coloring. Birds are such amazing creatures.

Tanja, those pictures are gorgeous. I've always wanted to visit Germany. I am seriously going to have to plan a European trip within the next year or two.

And Annie, I meant to tell you how lovely your garden looks in your photo...

*Annie* · Unread post by ***Annie*** » 27 Jun 2007, 04:29

These photos are all great...they just show what a beautiful world we live in.

...garden is OK if you don't look too close but Tommy is the star!

Here is my baby's first snow, he had a ball! His name is Bruno and he just turned a year old.

I adore these wonderful photos, what a great idea. Especially the animal ones, they are all beautiful. Bryan, that little dog looks so sad. Annie, your guy looks as if he could be Biggest Day's half brother, and that is some compliment! I thought Biggest [even though Doris described him sometimes as strange] was the most beautiful looking boy, beautiful like his mommy!

suzie · Unread post by **suzie** » 27 Jun 2007, 18:04

Annie, Jas1 is so right your tommy looks very much like biggest day.
Ive got doris and biggest picture right here on my dresser,and tommy looks very much like biggest.What a sweet (and might I say lucky doggie)he is.
