Northern Yellow Shafted Flicker
18 Sunday Apr 2010
Friday morning a colourful visitor came to dine on my front lawn. He is a Northern Yellow Shafted Flicker. I had to shoot this through my dirty screened in front window, so please excuse the fuzzyness. I really need to do some window cleaning. I switched to video mode just in time to catch him fly away. Needless to say he made my day.

Or, I spy with my little eye something that is ORANGE! This weeks Sunday still challenge turned out to be a lot of fun. My Homeee, sis-in-law and I set out looking for all things orange to shoot. Hope you enjoy our day, we certainly did.
My Homeee wanted to make sure we knew what our target was, so she dressed in Orange to remind us.
Our first sighting was newsworthy.
Our second sighting would take us places.

My Homeee and I could not believe our eyes when we spotted this vintage A & W. This is actually their 2nd building which in itself was built some 60 years ago. The original A & W was located down the street in Elizabeth Park. A & W has had a location in Trenton since 1937, WHO knew they were around that long?!

Sun you say? Well if you live in Windsor you know that if you don’t like the weather stick around and it will change, and changes were on the horizon. When I discovered the weather was turning for the worse, I went out in search of a sunset. It was an extremely dull day, but I managed to catch this shot at around 6PM on Tuesday.

Still Life with Grapes, and My Mothers Lace, originally uploaded by photographerpainterprintmaker.
Grapes! Grapes were on sale at the local Price Chopper. When my hubby brought them home I thought, now’s there’s an answer to this weeks challenge. I dusted off my trusty Nikon, and dug into the linen cupboard. The sun was bright and my spirits high. That is until I tried to turn on my camera and found that I once again forgot to shut it off and drained the battery. I didn’t panic. I had a few hours of daylight left in this wondrous day.
I popped the battery into the fast charger and set a timer. Maybe an hour would give it time to charge? Well, it took two, and the sun was fast moving and my plans were close to being lost.
Five o’clock, the golden hour of sunlight arrives and thankfully the battery is charged. With a bit of jury rigging I was able to set up this still life, in the warm natural light of a February sun.

I’ve been pretty busy of late, and have not been able to stop and breathe. I really liked this challenge, and am looking forward to what emotions this photo elicits. Happy to be a part of this great challenge.
This photo was taken at the Youmacon2009 convention held in Dearborn, Mi. My nephew posted on facebook that he wanted to go, and I jumped at the opportunity to take him. I knew it would be a great photo op, and a fun day with him. I was not disappointed.
Sunday Stills, the next challenge: Moods and Emotions
This will take a bit of explaining. This challenge is for you to get a shot that enables a response in the person who views your pic not one that is your personal emotion. For example if I see a pic of a tranqual stream or a sunrise I feel mellow, If I see a pic of doggie smiles or a horse doing his rolling in dirt thing It makes me smile, you get the idea. So lets see just how much talent we have out there and have some fun with this one, I’m already writing ideas in my notebook for pics and can’t wait to get started.
