Mini Assignment #4 Sihouette

Morning sun on the horses, love that silhouette!

Sand and Sun

We just returned from a week at the beach in San Diego. I had so much fun taking pictures, I am trying things I never would have in the past. We were hiking on the rocks when I looked up and saw this picture. My daughter didn't like it but I think it captures the gritty sand as well as the fascination we all have watching the waves come in. I am still a bit crazy with the camera, I took almost 500 pictures! Still trying to get over the beginners excitement I guess.

Poser

Believe it or not pelicans live in Utah. We actually have pelicans and lots of seagulls in our mountain lakes. I don't know for sure but I am guessing they migrate or maybe winter at the Great Salt Lake. Anyway on our recent trip to California I took a shot of this pelican posing for me on the pier. I have never seen one that is so colorful. The "Utah" pelicans are all white with orange beaks. That is one of the great joys of traveling, seeing the different plants and animals.

Simplicity

One or is it Two?

Action

We just hung out this bird feeder and it became instantly popular.

Light

Faucets

A bit of a twist on the theme and my first time trying to catch a drop of water in action. Not as easy as it looks!

Glow

Mountains and sunsets, two of my favorite subjects!

Green!

I think it is finally happening, SPRING! There was a hint of green poking out from the snow, can't wait for more.
