shot last year with a Mustek......

Anonymous said...: I like the statues. All fine examples of the stone carver's art that has all but disappeared. I can't begin to even guess what something like this would cost on a tombstone these days. But the price of a house at least. I don't recognize the man's name either. But then I don't get around much.

Thanks for your frequent vists to my blog. I don't get around much anymore. I try but seems like I get sidetracked all the time. I did get the Bear's Mill story done and the new photos sent off the the back fence magazine yesterday.

I also got emails from France today about my books being advertised there. Some lady wanted permission to translate some pages to assist in the advertising, I am guessing.

Also had to fill out some forms for the IRS because I am being paid for this last story.

Hope yo uare all OK. We are OK but this weather is horrible on my breathing.

Love to you all.

WHY the name PHOTOGRAPHY FOR DUMMIES?

Because I don't know much about the digital cameras I have used over the years....and yet I am able to take photographs. I have never made it through my entire instruction manual for any of my cameras. I started out with a little cheap 1MP camera.....and progressed from there. I still only have a 5MP Lumix.

Can I explain much about the settings I use or how I captured the shots I have? No, not really. Does that negate the value of the photo? No, not really. They are what they are and can more than stand alone based on their own value.

I want this blog to inspire and encourage even those who think they are clueless or a "dummy" when it comes to taking pictures to just get out there and DO IT! After all if I can get these shots....I am pretty sure you could too!
