Day 6: Let There Be Land Animals and Man.

So I know I am late entering this, and even if I can't qualify, I'm going to post anyway. :)

This is my little sister Laurel holding one of my 7 week old bunnies this past summer.

And this is a picture of Skippy, Laurel's rabbit, when he was 7 weeks old. The one she is holding in the above picture is Skippy's sister.

This week is Day 7: Let There Be Rest
I don't know what picture I will use but hopefully I will get a good one up before next Tuesday!



I hope you all had a Merry Christmas, and have a Happy New Years! :)

Day 5: Let There Be the Sea Creatures and Birds

Once again it is time for...



For some reason, I always post the very last day you are allowed too. Maybe because I am afraid I will take a better picture, and then have already entered...I don't know. :)

This first one I was just playing around with. I like how the wings are against the rest of the circle. :)

 This is an archive picture, taken in September at the lake near us.

This is also an archive, taken at the pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial.

I was taking some pictures of birds outside our kitchen window today, but none turned out very good.

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! :)

Day 4: Let There Be The Sun, Moon, and Stars

A picture of the moon? When I hear that, I envision a beach, in the middle of the night, with palm trees silhouetted against the moonlight, and waves on the sand, with a perfectly round moon in the center of the sky.

Well, believe me, I went to the beach, there were no palm trees, and my pictures are grainy, blurry blobs of light, if you look hard you can distinguish the waves from the sand. =D

But, I decided to practice night photography in my own backyard.
The moon was out yesterday around 4:15pm...I ran outside to take some pictures, and there was one star below the moon. I have no idea which one it was though. :) Then later (around 9pm) on our way home from 4-H I saw the moon, and that same star, the sky was much darker then, though! And I saw the little dipper. But when I got home I was to lazy to go upstairs, get my camera, go back downstairs, go out side, and try to take a picture because my battery was half dead, and I knew I wasn't going to get anywhere near a good picture.

With that out of the way...I need to get those pictures on the computer, and see what they look like. :) One better be good, so I can put it on here, if they are all bad, I'll just have to find one from my trip to the beach, and use it. 

Okay, so I changed the colors on one picture a ton, and it looks kinda cool to me. =) It doesn't really even look like the original, which had a really blue sky, instead it looks as if it was taken in the dead of night. haha :)

A fellow blogger commented on nzkiwi girl's blog, (she is doing this challenge) and said to take a good picture of the moon, to put your ISO really low, among other things. Now I want to do that! haha maybe I will try it tonight if I can see the moon. For now, here's just one picture.

See that little dot of light below the moon? That is the star. :)

*Edit

Okay, I took some more pictures, and I was looking to see if I could find what that star is. Supposedly if it's not twinkling its Jupiter. While it would be cool to see a planet so close, I am kinda skeptical. :)

Here's another picture of the moon, I just adjusted the contrast/shadows/highlights. Then I put it in a 'before/after' frame. In case you're wondering, the thing in the lower left hand corner of the left picture is a tree branch (you can't really see it that much). :)

Tagged!

I've been tagged by Makay at So Far So Great. Head over to check out her answers! I am going to do this tag on my regular blog.
I have been thinking, four blogs is a lot to keep up with, and I really want to combine them all into one blog. But I want them to be separate, too. I know that's confusing but I'll try to tell you all what I want.
I want a blog, where I have all my posts, but I also want four other pages on there, one for photography, one for cooking, one for my life, and one for crafts.  So if I posted about cooking, it would go on the original page, and on the page about cooking.
Ha. I probably lost you all after I said I'm doing this tag at my regular blog. If I didn't loose you, do you know how I can do that??? Any advice would be appreciated!!!
Now for a picture...

 My sister made these Chocolate Mint Dreams the other day for a Christmas party she has today. :)

Snow! :)

Last weekend we got the first official snow of the year, it has all stayed! We got maybe 3-4 inches. This picture is of a snowball my brother threw at our kitchen window when he was 'shoveling'. :) Despite the cold coloring, I really like how the background in this picture turned out.

This weeks Capturing Creation theme is Day 3: Let There Be The Waters.
