So, its been a week since my last post. I was planning on blogging on Wednesday but I had to house sit until late last night.

So while I was house sitting, I took the opportunity to do some much needed photo-editing. I had a bunch of TTV shots that I needed to crop, etc. As I was going through the images, I realized that I am beginning to improve.

For those who don't know, my computer was broken for a good 3 weeks, and in that time I had multiple photo outings. So, by the time I got my computer back all my memory cards were full. As I looked through the hundreds of images I had, I realized that, with each photo outing, the number of good, usable shots increased. All of this leads to the overwhelming amount of photo-editing I had/have to do. That is really exciting and encouraging. I had been feeling a bit discouraged as of late with the way my images had been turning out.

While I was off work with my hip injury, I had the chance to have a photo day with my Best friend Mandy. There is this barn that I pass every day on my commute to and from work, its dilapidated and there is tall grass and old barbed wire fences etc., I had wanted to stop and photograph there every time I saw it but didn't have the guts to do the trespassing by myself. So, when Mandy and I went on our photo adventure together we went there. Here are two of the decent TTV's I got there:




While on our photo adventure we also went to sugarloaf mountain and took some different shots around the base of the mountain. I got a lot of interesting shots here, and because the roads were pretty deserted I was able to get some cool ones of the road. So below are a few of my favorite shots from that location.

We had SO much fun on this photo adventure (besides Mandy's getting hurt). I wish I had another day like this, where I'm off work and I can roam around with my best friend and take pictures of anything and everything I see.

My next post will have images from another adventure with Mandy.
Hint about the location in the next post: It use to be an amusement park, but is now a cultural center.

These TTV shots came out great! I'm jealous of your mad skills! Can't wait to see your next post.

P.S. I'd love some advice on fixing up my photos. I just don't get the clarity you do. I'm not sure they'll be salvagable.
