Christmas Moon

A new camera, and a break in the clouds for a shot at the moon! 

This was basically pointing, zooming and shooting. Wow!

Imagine what will happen once I read the instructions on how to do things. 

Oh, I am one happy dancing girl about now! 

Merry, merry! 

Final Weekend

The final version of my mustard field mixed media painting, (WIP originally shown here) now offered at the Holiday Festival of the Arts.

I've sold several pieces and a lot of the ornaments so far, and last weekend sold one of my larger paintings. Woot! This weekend is the last of the show, and I hope to sell out... although I'll be happy with whatever sells.  :)

HuMp DaY Haiku - Blurry Moon

Blurry full moon shot.

Wishing for a camera that

gives a clearer view.

It's official. I want a new camera. I really do. A fancier point and shoot that will give me a clear picture of the moon, or of the hawk perching in the hawthorn tree, or the blue heron at the pond. And a crisp close up of the garden's treasures. And I want the camera to do most of the work for me. Not too much to ask, is it? :) 
Time to start saving my pennies.  

I started doing Hump Day Haiku with Carla Sonheim's Silly classes...  and decided as a challenge for myself, I'd continue.  In this process, I have found that creating a haiku to go with my photos feeds my soul. 

Would you like to share a haiku you have written?
