One Color: As Shot

 This one was taken through a periscope in a submarine at the OMSI in Portland. 

This was an early morning color a few days ago....lots of blue/grey tones.

One Color: BW

These were originally taken in color, and turned into black and white with a yellow filter in photoshop.

In September, I looked for a way to shoot our view of the forest fires across the mountains. Finally, the image fits the assignment!

Using a prime lens was tricky as I'm sure you all discovered.  I used my 50mm and tried to get pix of my daughter's dog chasing balls at the dogpark.  My main goal was to not crop the photos in editing.  Eeek - I am the cropping queen.  I was very happy to discover that I can move so much better now after months of working out and physical therapy.  The hardest part was getting all of the dog (tail, ears, etc.) in the frame.  But those pics you will see in class.  this one is when I was thinking I might use a wide angle lens.  Had to share as she is my 'baby' even though she looks a little green.  See you in class.

One Lens - Take 3

 Again, the trusty 50mm at work...extremely impressed with what this little lens has been accomplishing!

These were taken at the Edmonds Ferry Terminal tonight just as the sun set behind the clouds 

Just behind these clouds! (yes, still 50mm) 

One Lens - Take 2

Here again is the Canon 50mm 1.8 lens (No zoom) 

And Landy cooperating! (And BW for our BW Guru Carolyn)
