Another Walk

The last two weeks have been terribly busy. Engineers are not supposed to write essays about Founding Fathers... I have had no time for photos. After school today I decided I needed a little break. I popped the headphones in my ears, tuned the iPod to Grouch and Eligh, and walked out the door with my camera over my shoulder.  

I can't believe I did it again.  A few weeks ago I swore NEVER to desaturate all the colors but one.  Lookie here! As the once bald Brittany Spears would say, "Oops! I did it again"...  Would been kinda cool if I was actually Canadian. 
If I was to do this one again, I would have shifted right a little so the horses legs were not hitting and the Bluff in the background was in the middle of the clearing.Sack of bird feed.
I'm not sure exactly what is going on here.  Someone had dug out around an old stump and put small amounts of dirt in each planter. Weird. 


Turtles getting their feast on. (no, this was not on my walk)

So this set might not be the most fun.  It was nice to get out with the camera.  To be honest I really don't like using the 50mm as a walk around lens.  I love it for people, but not much else.  DOF is fun though!  I most definitely over-processed these. I really need to work on that.  I'm gaining respect daily for those photographers that can come up with great shots that aren't processed much.  

Other news:  I got rechargeables for my flash.  Cool.  I might be shooting a parade on Saturday morning.  Unless I party hard Friday.  I have a calc quiz tomorrow.  I'm going to the library to study right now.

peace.
