Day 22....






Actually, I never made it to day 27 take one of the 365 Project!! So, this should be just Day 27.

I was taking a picture of my vintage Japanese black lacquer music box and I noticed how the light was hitting this lady statue. So I became obsessed with the reflection (50 shots later). I did one in black and white and one in color. Not sure I honestly like either. I'm tired so these will have to do!

Vintage


Theresa and I were talking last night about antiques. I remembered that I have a lot of old things from Aunt Helen. So, while there was a break in the rain I went rummaging through my totes in the garage and found a lot of neat stuff. I will be taking pictures of all this stuff in the next couple days. It works out great since the weather is so bad.

I found my Grandpa's 1935ish Ansco Goodwin Box camera. So amazing that they actually used these cameras!! I don't even know where to start as far as loading the film let alone finding the shutter release! LOL Thank goodness the manual is still in the orginal box!! I looked on E-bay and found a few of these cameras. It's cool to see that mine is in better condition than the ones going for $35.00!

I took this in RAW, processed and converted it into black and white, changing the White Balance to Tungsten. Used the Vignetting effect in the editing. I'm pretty happy with this picture!!

Make up day...Day 12 and 13



Playing around with everything!!! The first one was taken in monochrome, the second one I changed in Elements. I think the first one looks softer and a lot better looking all around. I took these last Thursday, so I am behind. Jovita is growing fast!! Every single time I get to watch her I take as many photos as I can!!
