Crepe Myrtle with Occupant

Crepe Myrtle with Guest

We went to Fort Worth to visit relatives. I decided to get some shots of this crepe myrtle’s flowers, being the sort that I am. I rather wish I had noticed the occupant before wandering off.

Edit: available at the Be Mused Art Cafe Press Store.

Katie Phone Home

Friday, June 27th, 2008

I’ll admit it, I’m inordinately proud of this one, though it was luck:

KT Phone Home

Stats: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi, Shutter Speed: 1/60, Aperture: 4.0, ISO Speed: 800, Focal Length: 25.0 mm

Ok, luck and a bit of post-processing. The original is a bit under-exposed, as Chris, Katie, and I were wandering through a heavily wooded area near sunset. So, I’ll admit it: I brightened it and may have turned up the contrast a bit.

However, that (apart from the translation from .cr2 to .jpg) is about all that happened to that image. Melia is horribly amused / annoyed that she has a cell phone in her hands in the middle of this magical scene. If it helps any, she’s taking pictures with it.
