Week 40 in a rush!!

I want to catch you up a bit VERY QUICKLY!! 

I went to visit the fish the other day and man, have they grown!!! 
Their bodies are now about the size of a flat english pea!

And...they doing wonderfully at posing now that they aren't so frightened or hungry.

























 I took this picture the other day in my shower stall.

















I had seen a blog post about using a seamless bathtub as a backdrop for ebay selling and it gave me the idea that I could do the same for simple plain backdrop shots! 

Of course I must work on getting the color right!! 

This was how I transformed it.

















This one was taken in the bathtub...ahhhh hahaha!! 





















  This one was taken on my front porch.  The jury is still out on if it is dangerous or not.  It doesn't really matter though since it lies dead in the yard.





















This is my new screensaver. I took it in a series of shots on Monday as a part of the SOOC to wow challenge of "leaves".  It is week 40 over there.  I think I may go ahead and link up this crazy post, so I won't be too far behind on that.




 Whew...only 3 minutes gone and I am done except for loading those pictures which you have now already seen!!


Oops wait, I didn't include my SOOC shot! 
Hold on, it is here somewhere.
























Ahhh yes there we go!
 It is a crispy leaf tangled in an old spider web. Looks like it is floating in an odd way, right?
 I have to rush, 4 piles of laundry await me!
If you are like me right now, you are thinking why did she choose that old dead leaf instead of the nice green ones?  That my friends will remain a mystery to us all.
Oh my!!
Oh BTW...I may play around with a new layout and design here.
One that gives me more space for the larger photographs I am having trouble getting to fit in this format.  Just, well...don't be upset if you come back and things are all changed up! 
I am making no promises, just pondering outloud!

rain

















It rained today.
For the first time in MONTHS we got rain for hours.
So, while this image is not crisp and perfect, the heavy drops of water are what I wanted you to notice today.
Thank you God for the rain.

And finally, playing around with Picassa and its premium features a bit.
Maybe a bit too much, don't ya think!!
















I am really not sure that I got the WOW accomplished for any of them at all.  Blech and ho hum!














Oh, but I have a feeling someone was sure to.  I am going to head over to the edit day results and see for myself!!  You can too by going here!!  That Ashley Sisk does an awesome job each week keeping us hopping!!  Thanks Ashley!

I went to the dentist today.
It was almost 3 hours of ridiculous, too close to my brain torture.

I won't be touching my camera, but did work for a few minutes today on designing some business cards!! 

Moving forward in some way is good right? 

I am going to open my photo storage, close my eyes and give you the image that is randomly chosen. 

And here it is...
Ahhhh haha, it is one from my trip to an underground cavern from 2 or 3 years ago.


Off to bed for some recoup!
