Picture This

Beth Ann and Camera

Taking pictures is one of my loves and being with our kids is another. Sitting on the patio, with birds, owls, and the kid’s company was PERFECT!  Birds in Nature, and they seems to come in pairs, usually one on each side of the feeder. I even managed to get the seeds the birds were eating ! So Cool! If I do say so…myself, p.s. not a lot of editing, not an editing person, would love to have a person to do all that.

Weekly Wednesday PHOTO

Using a digital camera is the best, I click away digital photo’s every place we go. This past week we were at the South Florida Museum. 
I took a couple of pictures of the car thinking nothing about it. When I downloaded it.   Can you see me ? I did it in EVERY photo I took of this car???

Weekly Wednesday Photo a Quilt

I take a lot a quilt photo’s, the quilts I make all completed, one’s that are in the sewing process and even the idea sheets I draw. Lots of quilt photo’s. So, the other day, I decide to look at a quilt different. I know, not the normal idea you awake up too? But, I do ??  Seeing a quilt from a new angle. 
This is, “All Stitched”

Make it March for My Photo’s

My little camera died ! No pain, no drama, BUT it DIED ! Husband just handed over his, it also is a Canon, point and shot, but it’s a REALLY good one. I’m in a learning curve again and love the adventure of new. So these are some of my photos from January, we took a couple of days and drove down to Sanibel Island. It of course was the coldest week we have had in years. But, we had a great time. Photo’s by Beth Ann Doing  See my quilt Shop

Take Time Thursday – Past Week in Photo’s

My Past Weeks Photo’s by Beth Ann. I have been wanting to do this for a bit and with things a bit calmer, I am going to try. What it really does is get me OUT and taking pictures.
We live in a fantasy area here in Sarasota, Florida, so many things to see and do. We always make it to the Ringling before most holiday’s. I call it a “vacation day”. I took 417 pictures on this day. I found I was a bit involved with the lighting??? I try very hard to just take pictures, not over think anything like portions of thirds, colors, just shoot what my eyes see at the time. photo by Beth Ann Strub

I have always loved old thing and this is one of my favorite houses to visit. I  hope that some day they will open it up to special tours and let me take my camera behind the red ropes….BUT until that time, I just keep taking pictures.

These Pictures Didn’t Make the Cut

I love taking pictures. I have taken classes, shot thousands of pictures, joined a group and just jumped in with two feet. I tried a couple competitions, but my skin wasn’t too thick. I took a year off and today I sent in digital prints, these photo’s here were close but didn’t make the cut…..I have no idea why, I think it’s at the moment kind of thing, but I really like these too.

Happy Father’s Day

To all the Father’s, I hope you have a wonderful Day.  I know Husband here is HAVING a GREAT time. 

Can you see the Horse here in a wave?  From our trip to the ocean the other day. I only have to be asked once to go sit in the sand and just watch nature. The wind and wave made for some great spray. I just waited and this was one of MANY shots.

Today is my Birthday !

And I’m getting OLD. Yes….OLD.

Yes, 59 in the NEW 39. Yeah, you keep believing that. It’s not, it’s 59.

Old bones, gray hair and these brown spots had seem to have a life of their own. It’s all about preservation at this time. Keep the body moving or things will start growing….Where it should NOT be growing.  Where getting out of a chair can take on a whole process itself….REALLY. BUT, I’m laughing my way through it.. Or trying too, what’s a Lady to do ?  
GET OLD…Wise and HAPPIER. And I Laugh, out loud.  I know I shouldn’t sometimes, BUT,  I’m OLD. So I do !  HA ! 
So today as most days it’s ALL ABOUT ME.   Go over and purchase a quilt pattern for yourself and me !
So, it’s my Birthday and here are two of my Flower Photo’s. I LOVE them. These are “after’s” and then before’s. Just a bit of computer work on them. Nothing is really as it seems ! Not even 59 Years Old today…I AM 59??? Holy Shit…
