dedmanshootn > spring cones 05/15/08 this is one of the culprits firing up my allergies. though that wasn't why i was unable to go out the other day i very much appreciate the kind words and encouragement from y'all. this tree is right by my favorite library branch and it was so pretty in the evening light i just had to shoot it
dedmanshootn > posing spotted towhee 06/11/08 this lovely gent just insisted on having his picture taken. i was across the street looking for an angle on the armory building and he flew right up by me and started his 'chip'. he led me across the street and then flew up and posed in a lovely planter of flowers. i had my 18-55mm lens on tho so didn't shoot as it was too far but did find some things of interest right by me to shoot. i heard him start a steady 'chip' and looked up he was only about 8 feet away. i took a couple and, as he seemed to be enjoying it rather than nervous, decided to switch on my 85-200mm. he waited patiently while i did this and posed prettily for a couple more. since he didn't fly away or even appear nervous i reset and bracketed as the lens isn't made for my camera and can only be used manually and the light was tricky. he waited til i gotten two or three bracketed shots then flew off. lucky for me he was such a ham as this was the very last shot and the best by far of the lot. its almost as if he knew i'd gotten it right finally so he could go on his way. a very entertaining seven or eight minutes, as you can no doubt tell by my long-windedness

dedmanshootn > bnsf engines pulling freight 06/03/08 the main railroad between the ports of seattle, wa, usa and vancouver, bc, canada runs through bellingham. my apartment is about 3-4 blocks from it so i hear them when they go through, a sound i love. some days we get two or three and other days we get over a dozen. the rails run right along the water for quite a long time and its a very pretty trip tho only one passenger train a day runs between the two cities any more and there's talk of phasing it out. my mum used to take me on the train to visit her parents when i was preschool and we lived in seattle (they lived in vancouver). i really like to travel by train and will miss it when it gets phased out, as i've no doubt it will
dedmanshootn > grass green 05/29/08 another shot where i was playing with settings trying to figure this digital stuff out for those of you who were relieved that i used the iris instead of the laundry you can see the shots i've shot in the laundry (not just yesterday) and decide for yourself if laundry rooms aren't interesting http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/5046709_9ue4F#274874550_mDvkH

dedmanshootn > bogie, a legend in his own mind - "the noble dog, faithful and true, man's best friend. here i am keeping watch (and looking darn fine if i do say so myself) and am i appreciated? do i get any treats? is anyone taking my picture? ... oh...yeah...um...ok...so i got it pretty good. a fine fellow like me deserves it!" 06/27/08 this was actually shot at the same time as yesterday's dp but i liked it so well and was so down with allergies i decided to 'cheat'. i'll probably be able to post something but won't be commenting much if at all this weekend. i'm going down to shoot at the greenwood car show saturday, if you're in the greater seattle area its an event well worth making time and effort to take in - see info at the link below, and visiting my sis, b-i-l and DOD and his wife (and hopefully some extended fam and friends). hope everyone has a great weekend and some wonderful things to photograph. http://www.greenwoodcarshow.com/
