Photo Successes

I’m pleased that my photos are getting some attention.  Today the local newspaper (The Poinciana Pioneer) featured three of my wildlife photos.  One was a photo of a deer, another was of an alligator, and the third was a sandhill crane and its chick.

Last week, the Webshots site featured one of my rose photos in a collection of rose pictures for Valentine’s Day.    There were 200 downloads of it from Webshots last week.  Anyway, it’s gratifying to see my pictures on display.

Photo Scavenger Hunt

Our camera club at Solivita has an annual scavenger hunt.   We all get the same list and try to take photos to match the assigned topics.  It gets us to looking at subjects outside our comfort range.  I’ll share thumbnail pictures of what I choose to submit for this scavenger hunt.  Here are the topics: water, leaves, repeating patterns, glass or mirror,  looking up, insects,  golf course landscape, machinery, rocks, signs, and sports in Solivita.

 I still need to find an insect to photograph.  All the signs I’ve seen are pretty boring.  I can’t figure out how to get an interesting photo of signs or rocks.
Update on this activity:  I received very favorable comments on the leaves, repeating patterns (tire tracks), golf course landscape (foggy day), machinery, and signs (stop sign) photos.
