It's Tuesday already again :) What were your best shots last week. Hit me with 'em. (This is an early start, but I am up early tomorrow and need my beauty sleep. PLus I am cross-eyed from trying to photograph T shirts. Sounds simple enough - only 12. Well, sure is hard, using all I learned in Denver Plus to get "true color" on these things. Am halfway done and nothing edited.

These shots were taken at the living museum we visited the end of June. I was looking for "simple" this time and looking to use natural light to highlight things of interest.

And they were all in this room

Out in the garden

And I was pretty happy with my fireworks

Nice start Pat. Thought I would stop by and drop one off. OK maybe two.

By the way I am still breathing and I will be for a long time to come.

Nan, In Denver you asked how much burning and dodging I do. In the first image there are 11 separate areas that have been burned in or dodged. The second image has 4 areas.

I can tell you've been "tied up". Like the light on the rope.

Well, after some difficulty getting home...we were routed through San Francisco...boarding right at the time of the Asiana crash..it happened 11 minutes before we started boarding...cancelled the flight, of course, spent the night in a hotel not knowing where our luggage would end up as it was already on the plane ....anyway...finally got back home to the cool Alaska weather...60's...had a lot of adventures visiting family and of course, Annette too! Glad to be back home and back online!

Fireworks of course..over the mississippi
