Oldies but Goodies


Last week I told you that my hard drive is full...as in busting at the seams full. 
A lot of you suggested that I get an external hard drive, which I did! Thanks for all the suggestions. 
I was hoping to have it by now, but a few days ago I received an email telling me my item was on backorder!! Ack! 

I guess I'll also be getting a lesson in patience...

While I'm waiting for my new 'toy' to get here, I've been going through my old photos. There were some that I had completely forgotten about! Isn't it funny what sticks in your mind and what doesn't?

I've also been working on my Etsy shop
I've listed a bunch of new prints, finally made a banner, and freshened up my avatar. 

This is one of those forgotten shots from early this year. 
I really like the colors and abundance of bokeh, so I decided to list it in my shop.
I titled it Effervescence of Winter - quite fitting, I think!

Effervescence-of-Winter---8


The theme this week for Sheri's photo challenge is sight.
Although it may be a long-stretch, I'm using this photo because without my contacts or glasses, this is about the quality of my sight! My vision is terrible. And although seeing everything in bokeh is kind of pretty, it's not very practical. :)

This shot was also taken toward the beginning of the year. 
My son has oodles of Hot Wheels and they're all so colorful!!

This is yet another new listing in the shop: Car Show in Miniature.

And here's one more from the beginning of this year.
My husband had gone to a food show for work and came home with a bouquet of gerbera daisies...just in time for our anniversary!

The title for this shot isn't near as clever as the above two: Daisy in Sepia.

  5. Oh I like those shots - especially that bokeh - I am so in love with those - to think that when I first started out in digital photography I binned those shots lol.

    I thought of an etsy shop once - do you have to go to the post office to post prints off to people? that's what put me off as I can't get to post offices very easily. I was thinking more of using the red bubble site.

  9. These are great!!! Which lens did you use for the daisy?

    Once your external hard drive gets in, it will be wonderful!!! It's a great investment.

    Hugs!
