Thread: Flashback Friday 7/13/12

Since I'm on a roll posting I figure I'll start the new Friday share thread rolling! If anyone posts one while I'm typing this, we can just erase mine.

I haven't shared here in over a month but I'll try to limit mine and let you know the rest are at Flickr & Facebook like always!

1. Chipping Sparrow in WV:


2. Harris's Checkerspot butterfly, on a cold, windy, dark June day in WV:


3. Goatsbeard wildflower:


4. Eva splash:


5. Four O'Clock flower:




6. a kind of magical view of a honeybee (I have this cropped closer also at Flickr & FB):


7. the 3D bunny cake I made for Eva's birthday:


8. and one of my all-time favorite honeybee shots, taken this week:


More at Flickr & FB!

Those are awesome shots, Amy! Love the Eva splash and her cake too, and that last honeybee shot is awesome. Love the fourth one from the bottom too; great crisp clarity on the stamen and such vibrant colour.

I shared some of our trip ones already and haven't taken much else this week. I may come back later and see what else I have, though!

Got a couple more that I finished processing from our trip, and a couple of flower ones I really liked from recently as well:

Thank you, Tracy!! Oooh I love that link fence flower shot, and that first shot, the whole storm, how totally awesome!!

Tracy- I too love the storm one and the fence one. The fence one totally grabs my eye!
Amy- LOVE the honeybee shot!
These are just ones I have taken recently. Nothing is totally current! I have been too lazy to drag out my speedlight, so they are all grainy snap shots, but honestly, I love them. They are us. Anyways, I also realize I keep changing my watermark! LOL! I wanted my owl back, so I found a new one since my old ones were on my old computer! LOL- just realized they are all B&W!

My kids asleep on the couch this morning:

Sadie, those are great "everyday" shots to really capture your family!

Thanks! I was thinking of entering that one into a photo contest, because it's something a little different and it's a really big contest, so I figured it might stand out from "typical" landscape or nature shots. I just really like it... so glad to know it grabs other people too!

I love #3, Amy. The DOF is amazing.

Tracy, I think that #1 is amazing!

That one of Ruthie in the tub made me LOL

I don't have much from my DSLR this week. I guess I just wasn't in the mood to carry it around, so most of my shots are from my phone/Instagram.

And a couple of Carson from today. DH has been in AR all week, and brought the boys back "real" Sheriff badges. I watched Carson's wheels just turn in his head, then he ran and grabbed his cowboy stuff. I, of course, saw a photo op
