…The Joys of Life

Happy Saturday, everyone!  I’ve been editing and adding to watermarks to some of the photos that I’ve been asked to take for several friends and families over the last few years, and I wanted to share some of my favorites with you from a number of categories.  Yep…I am into photography, too.  Grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and browse through the joys of life! :)

So what do you think?  Should I even dare pick up my camera to do this again, or should I leave it in the closet where it’s been in hibernation?  Unlike most photographers of today, I LOVE using my still camera instead of a digital camera…don’t ask me why…I’m just goofy that way! ;)  If I ever came across a digital that I was curious about I’m afraid that I wouldn’t even have the nerve to pick it up…I have my still camera’s settings and apertures memorized.  Who knows…I might end up swept into the digital age one day! LOL!

That’s it for me today…thanks for stopping by!  I’m heading to my creative corner to do some coloring, but I’ll see you back here tomorrow with a little something {or two}.  Until then…

I think they are awesome photos and you definitely have a photographers eye! I know what you mean about SLR's! I miss my non-digital camera and being able to look through a viewfinder at my subject. Get that camera out Ms Mercy and use it, I say!!
Have a great weekend!

Does your creativity know no bounds? What beautiful pictures! I think a sign of a true photographer is that they can use a still camera. Bravo!

I think your photographs are really nice. I carry my camera with me and take pictures wherever I go. There's nothing like having memories in print. Keep up the good work.
