I really love taking photographs, and find myself with a camera in my hand all day long. I especially love macro, and hers a good example of why. I see these pendants all the time, I'm constantly making them and working with them. To me, they are all something that I fawn over a little bit, for the few moments that it is mine, and then wrap and ship out. When I take a photo of it like this, I can get all excited about it again, by seeing it in a different light.

Springtime brings all the birds to my gutters, where insects must be hiding. This bird was throwing all of the fall leaves onto the ground. I had to watch only his shadow so I wouldn't disturb him.

Springtime!

Heres a few photos of my post spring showers and beautiful outdoorsy things Ive been enjoying.

The little things...guessing game!

WHAT IS THIS?

I've always loved details. I started (a loong time ago) posting photos of up-close and detailed things. If you want to see the old ones, click here and here.

In any case, I've also always loved those games where you have to guess what the close-up photo is. I hope to do this more often because its good to get your brain moving.


WHAT IS THIS?
hint: its something I use every single day in the studio.

I will post the asnwer soon!
