Engagement Photos Gone Wrong

It's Fun Friday, and as much as I hate making fun of people, because it's rude, it is a form of bullying and it is just downright wrong...I do get a kick out of the natural funnies in life that people offer me.

I was Stumbling, like I often do, and I found this in the family stumbles.

A site of Engagement Photos gone BAD.

Not crude or lude and not too bad...well, at least not too many of them...

I decided to share them with you for two reasons:

1) So that you will get a little chuckle today (because I did)
2) So you will learn what not to do (or let a photographer do) during a photography session

By the way, it is ironic that I came upon this site...

I am counting down the days of my own engagement and I have twice in the past two years had my photo taken with my fiancee and I wonder whether or not they look bad...lol...and whether I should show them in an announcement...or save them for my grandkids...

You tell me...

Just pick one of these you like, right click, save picture as: whatever title you want and go to your control panel and choose it for your desktop background or screensaver!

I enjoy capturing nature in sunsets.
Each season, each day, and every time, it will reveal different sets of colors and patterns.
Here are two of my favorites I'd like to share with you:) They are views from my balcony.
Just think, this time next month!!       WARM!       I hope....

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words...

My passion for photography runs deep.

I received my first camera when I was 8 yrs old. 

and not long after, I went on my

first photography expedition. I still have the pictures of

that trip where I snapped shots of landscapes, water and various

other things. My desire is to use my passion for photography

 with my blog is not only to add good design element,

but to share with you what I see when I am behind the camera,

in the hopes of inspiring you visually as well as verbally.

I am a lover of art, all art...

Welcome to my art Gallery.

By the way, that is a picture of my son, at 4, with my Cannon Rebel SLR camera.

It is a film camera and I still own it. I'm only a few months into digital and it took me

a long time to convert. I will always love my film camera.

All of my children have been behind the lens of my Rebel, and they all take great photographs!

No child is ever too young to use a camera... It shows us their perspective of how they see the world

while introducing them to another art form.

A good fine art photograph is one that makes the viewer so aware of the emotional content,

that the viewer is unaware of the print.
