My photo today was taken in Asbury Park, NJ. I liked the perspective of Tillie in the background and this statue of Patriarch Athenagoras (Man of Love 1886-1972) in the foreground.
I was inspired by reading a friend's blog about how in the new year everyday she wanted to read more, pray, take a photo etc. The "take a photo" struck me and I thought that's a great idea and since I love photography it's a great way to keep me motivated and capture something new! So I started this on 1/5/11 & I reached a year on 1/4/12 & although I don't post everday all the time I still post when something catches my eye & I want to share it!

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 20 - Whatever you want
When I was donating blood today you have to fill our a questionnaire about if you have ever been out of the country in the past three years and the nurse asked me where I was. I was telling her about my cruise to the Bahamas and going horse back riding on the beach. On a cold day like today I wish I was there!

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 14 - Focusing on Eyes
I love green eyes, especially Sebastian's eyes and in this photo I love how they have little bit of the reflection of the TV or another light reflecting off of them.

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 13 - Photo Edit you Like
A lot of times I use photo shop to tweak some of the photos I use when I have an exhibit coming up. Sometimes its just a simple edit like levels or curves to even out the tone. Other times I like to use other photo edits such as:
Clone tool/ patch tool
I took this pic in Martha's Vineyard & liked just the four boats & used the clone tool and patch tool to get rid of the back boat and some of the extra rope.
Vibrancy Tool
I took this pic on a hike in Speculator, NY and wanted brighten it up a bit because the original was hazy and muted.

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 12 - Same Shot Different Light
This is the same shot as yesterday but in sepia tone. I actually like the tone and texture of the trees in this shot versus the black and white. Makes me want to take more sepia toned photos.

Black & white photography is something I usually don't do very often, but I do have a few in my collection that I like including this photo.

30 Day Photo Challenge - Days 9 & 10
The reason why there wasn't a post yesterday was: A: I wasn't feel well yesterday, B: I was busy watching Golden Globes, and C: I honestly forgot! So here are the past two days:
Day 9 - Something from a distance
This pictures was taken looking in the distance of a path at Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ
Day 10 - Whatever you want
Today is another day where I get to post what I want so today is a photo that I took of a peacock feather and then did a photoshop effect to it by solarizing it and then making it pixelated.

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 7 - Silhouette
I had taken this picture a few years ago at one of my old jobs. I remember walking into the office one day & as I approached my desk & looked on the floor I noticed how the way the papers were stacked on my desk created this face in the shadows on the floor & the garbage can created the neck of the face.

30 Photo Challenge - Day 3- Favorite Place to Be
One of my favorite places to be is Disney World especially Epcot World Showcase where they have the different countries each with their own restaurant featuring that country's food. This is a photo of Epcot Morocco (that is based on 3 cities) where the real Morocco paid for it to be built so it would be done right!
