There is no sunlight in Central Indiana today….cold with snow flurries. Once again I look to my portfolio for today’s assignment to emphasize the sun as the light source. This is one of my favorites for side lighting…
Memory of spring

Natural world: Lines and curves
12 NovTake three photos from Great Britain to San Diego, CA and in between:
From the grounds of Hampton Court
Spring in Indiana
Mission Beach
The last part of the assignment suggested breaking the rule of thirds….that is why I chose the Mission Beach image: half surf and half sand.
Landmark
11 NovNaturally the subject of “landmark” on Veteran’s Day brings thoughts of national memorials on the mall in Washington D.C. Rather than feature those memorials, I chose a couple of iconic statements that are embodied in those memorials.
“I have a dream” from the place the words were spoken at the Lincoln Memorial.
Freedom is not free.
Connect: Veterans
10 NovToday’s photo assignment is “connect”. I chose “connection” images with authority, friendship and music.
Major General and Charles Frazee
WWII USMC Vets Charles Frazee and Paul Hayes
USMC Birthday Ball Indianapolis 2012 Let’s dance!

The first time I put my photography up for sale was four years ago in a Silent Auction fund-raiser for Aspiration Awards for young women pursuing degrees in technology, math and science. Now we are getting ready for a fourth auction and again my contribution are ten 8″ X 10″ matted prints.
Most of my images for 2010 were taken at McCormick Place in Chicago. Since the 2011 auction was held at a holiday networking event, I choose mostly floral images. 2012 my choice images are from London and Hawaii.
Originally, I used Kodakgallery.com followed by MPix.com. The paper was not as heavy, but the same metallic glossy finish. The prints are very good quality. This year I used shutterfly.com for expediency. The metallic glossy finish was not an option. However, I am pleased with the results. To keep my costs down, I procured mats from GoldenStateArt.com. Excellent source. They even include a sealable plastic wrap/envelope for each mat.

Everything sold in the last three auctions. ENCORE!
