Magic

The magic of photography
Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I sometimes marvel at the wonder that is photography in my life. Did I find it…or did it find me? I look in my camera bag and pull out a lens and play and experiment and mess around with light. To me, photography is magic…

What is magic in your life?

It’s a Secret!

by Kacey on 5/25/2011

Shh! Don’t tell SuperGuy. :secret: It will be our little secret…

I might possibly have gotten a new lens. Yes, I know, I know. I swore off buying new lenses…

I might possibly gotten a Lensbaby Composer Pro lens. It’s a kind of tilt shift lens.lensbaby flowers

The siren call of this lens called to me. {it is not my fault!}  It’s just a really fun lens to play with!

I guess it comes as no surprise that my first subject with this lens was a beer bottle (Conveniently consumed emptied beforehand. I stop at nothing to get the best photos!)

Now I really, really mean it. No. More. Lenses. Really. :hide:

First Indigo Buntings of the Season

by Kacey on 5/16/2011

My beloved indigo buntings have returned.

Isn’t he cute sitting out there in the rain? I saw the first one and screamed, jumped up to get my camera…and, of course, scared it away. I was patient after that. Stalked the window.

I was rewarded. More indigo bunting posing. Then it turned dark and dreary for the rest of the weekend. I’m hoping for sun today to get some more shots before they move on.

I do not know why these cute little birds thrill me so much when they come to the midwest for their few weeks in the spring. But they do. I’d love to get a shot of a feeder full of them again. I must be patient… (Oh, quit laughing, you who know me so well… I am SO a patient person…really…)
