A Red Letter Day!

First,
let me just say that I cannot 
believe that I have had 
300 posts to this blog....
OMG!
where did I find the time....
maybe all that laundry...
maybe the dust bunnies...
maybe the letters not written..
anyway,
I just glanced at my dashboard and
noticed that the 3-0-0 had
shown up.
wow...


Second,
I am please to say that 
my lovely TWO-color
Brother typewriter,


(that's black ink  AND  RED ink!)
has been included in a 
FUN
Etsy treasury today
called 
assembled by

TrendyFabric 
carries 
some unique, colorful fabric
that you should check out....
right after you see the treasury...

I see details...

It's a strange thing....
once you have viewed the world through
a camera's viewfinder, 
and have become
 "addicted to the click",
you see things differently.

much differently.....

It seems that 
once you realize the infinite 
possibilities of 
capture....

well...
it 
changes 
you.






I spent the morning 
shooting 
stuff
for my Etsy
shop.
I had been concentrating on 
light,
shadows,
set-ups,
etc...

and then,
hot,
exhausted,
head hurting,
and
a little pissy...
I plopped myself
down on the nearest 
sofa, leaned back 
and
 then
 looked at the 
things piled on the coffee
table.

"wonder how that would look?"
"wonder what the light is doing this far from the window?"
Set's see...
I can do this...
and this...
and 
well,
maybe
 this too..

Minutes pass,
many 
minutes.......

You would think I had nothing else to do,
nope..
I have laundry,
dishes,
cleaning,
you know the routine,
but still 
the camera,
she calls....
