itssewmystyle-- I like that this shot is slightly angled and the combination of the city and the mountains is neat. Great perspective shot!

New York State of Mind


This is my favorite picture from my trip to New York a few years ago. I'm a small town country girl and wouldn't fit in too well in a big city like New York. I'd love to go back someday and explore the city more, we just did the typical touristy visit. This picture you can just hear the noise and see the organized choas of Times Square and I love the colors and the taxi turning was a perfect shot. :)

Photo Challenge: Your Town

@itssewmystyle and @pioneerwoman were my inspiration to start my own photo challenges. For now it's just for fun and bragging rights.

Photography is something that anyone with a camera can do and what better way to get you motivated to do something than a challenge. This will help me to get out and break in the camera as well. I love photography and seeing other people's work only inspires you to get out there and start taking pictures.


How it works.
-Look for the photo challenge post with this rounds challenge.
-Grab your camera and find your shot
-Join the Flickr group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/northof10thphotochallenge
-Get your pictures in before the deadline
-Upload your photo to our Flickr group [you can post 1 photo per day]
-Browse and comment on your favorite photo
-I'll pick my favorite when the challenge is over

Your challenge for this time around is Your Town.
Take pictures around you where you live. Your downtown, a historic place, your favorite hangout, anything you can imagine. Since I just got the photo blog up and running we will give this challenge until September 22. Spread the word, tell your friends. Photography is fun and will get you out of the house. I can't wait to see what you can come up with!

Welcome!

Howdy all!

Today I got a special delivery. I went ahead and splurged (with some help) on the digital SLR camera that I have been wanting. I'm sure that you all will be dying to see my pictures (at least I hope) So I created this lovely blog to post some of my pictures for you all to enjoy. No promises or guarantees on the quantity or initial quality of the pictures. I hope to take some more photography classes for fun and to learn some new things. Again welcome and when you get some pictures please post comments! :)
