oh wow lise what kind of camera do you have?

Lise · Feb 01 07 10:30

It's not a fancy one, SD. A wee little Nikkon Coolpix. I just like taking close-ups of stuff.

Sportsdude · Feb 01 07 10:32

oh wow I'm impressed.

I also played around with a few experimental objects.

You take some nice photos as well, SD.

Good job Lise !

Sportsdude · Feb 01 07 10:43

Thanks Lise, I try, a professional told me I have the 'eye' or whatever that means. Wish I could expirement more but I just don't have time or places aren't that interesting around here.

Lise · Feb 01 07 05:46

Ah, thanks PC. I have to get back into more photo taking opportunities when I'm not holding onto the kids next time.

Here's more from Van Dusen garden.

The lilly pads close up would have been a great shot.

SD....you don't need to take pictures of beautiful things to take beautiful photographs. When you have 'the eye', you can find beauty in the mundane.

True words. I would love to take black and white photos of people's faces but I could never get the courage to approach them.

Yeah when the weather gets better and I finish my work I'll take the dog to Queeny Park and I'll take pictures of the ducks in the pond and other dogs running around.

P.C. · Feb 01 07 10:02

This is one of the most hauntingly beautiful photographs, and yet it is certainly not a photo of anything beautiful.

Sportsdude · Feb 01 07 10:05

I dunno P.C. there's a billion Vietnam pics I can think of right now....
the children running after being napalmed
And of course the soldier being executed
