    Cheetah Beauties

    I’m not going to lie when I say I was a bit intimidated taking this photo.  After all, I was pretty sure they could out run me to the fence any day but I still had to get a closer look.  These kitties are a true beauty of nature and well I just had to take their peekshur… with their permission of course. =) It always helps to be polite.

    Macro Photography Fun Tips

    Often times the details of a tiny bug or object are ignored or hardly ever seen, so how can we peek into their tiny world and finally see what it’s really like? A macro lens or macro mode on your camera gives you the ability to take close-ups of small objects such as flowers and insect. Here are a few tips to help you have the most fun with macro photography. Watch out for the Blurring! -...

    Bluebonnet Season

    One of my favorites times of the year here in Texas for me has to be the Bluebonnet season beginning mid March and ending the end of April.  These beautiful wild flowers grow everywhere and anywhere they feel like letting us know with their bright blue color that Spring if finally here!  You know they’re here when you see people squatting all over the place just to take a quick peekshur with these beauties… myself in...

    Cardinal Beauty

    This little guy had been avoiding me for so long but always knew one day I would get his peekshur and this was the day.  Out of nowhere it decided to come down and take a closer look at me and this is the perfect reason why having my camera handy is always a good idea.  I wish I’ve had the perfect setting on my camera ready for this little guy but this photo to me is absolutely beautiful any way I could ...

    A Survivor

    This little creature has some story.  We found him completely alone and with a hurt wing. We don’t know if he was attacked or if he fell on it but he cannot fly anymore. While this is heartbreaking to me, he is a survivor and I know he will find his way home.  He is one of the most beautiful creatures I’ve ever met… Good Luck Buddy! =)

    The “New” Kodak Share Button

    I was somewhat excited at the thought of being able to share photos I just took with my digital camera when I heard of the new Kodak Share button… ok, I was very excited!  The commercial of the daddy sharing the newborn photo made it seems as if they went right out of the camera, somehow connected to a wireless tower somewhere like a cell phone does or Wifi and the photo would magically appear in my facebook ...

    Who's The Good Kitty?

    I don’t lie when I say almost every animal I photograph steals my heart and to say this now with this little guy is an understatement.  While he didn’t like me one bit, as if the constant hissing at me wasn’t a sign enough, I fell in love the minute I saw him.  Second thing I do after taking their peekshur is to name them and this little guy’s name is Junior. So Junior, just so you know your hissing didn’t scare me… ...

    5 Tips For Better Photography

    While there are many great tips for better photography, I try to keep at least these five in mind every time I take a photo. Adjusting just one will give you a whole new perspective. Mostly you should remember to have fun, take many photos, try every option and always take your camera with you! 1. GET CLOSE.  Getting closer helps to determine not only who or what your main subject is but also helps avoid having ...

I was somewhat excited at the thought of being able to share photos I just took with my digital camera when I heard of the new Kodak Share button… ok, I was very excited!  The commercial of the daddy sharing the newborn photo made it seems as if they went right out of the camera, somehow connected to a wireless tower somewhere like a cell phone does or Wifi and the photo would magically appear in my facebook page! I was thrilled! But nope.

My dreams of sharing my photos right out of my digital camera were quickly shattered when I More >

1. GET CLOSE.  Getting closer helps to determine not only who or what your main subject is but also helps avoid having distracting items around your subject giving it a better composition.  Look at the photo edges of the picture, choose your subject and adjust by More >

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cuter or taller creature.  I’m a big wildlife lover and this girl was definitely asking for me to take her peekshur.  As you can see from the low angel I’m a shorty compared to her, but I’m still happy I always get to remember her with this peekshur. =)
