Project 365 - 1/3/08 - 3/365


My world came to a screeching halt early yesterday a.m. A stomach bug of some sort and I won't give you any details. I am moving more this afternoon but not very fast. I'm not sure my brain has cleared enough to be blogging but I have to do something to stay upright.

I took this photo on the 1/3/08 because I knew the tree was coming down and it was just too good of a subject. The look I wanted to get was more of a night shot, glowing "candles", etc. I got that shot but this is the one I wanted to share. It reminds me of Christmas circa 1958. My dear husband was a wee lad and I was celebrating my first Christmas. The picture is a bit grainy and is in general very much like many of the photos I have of us from that time period.
Camera specifics are: Color mode B&W, ISO 200, 1/60 at 2.8, with on camera flash.

This is more what I was shooting for. Both are straight out of the camera as my brain is not able to deal with anything more technical at this time.

Sorry Teresa I spelt your name wrong. I am home today with a stomach bug too. Tis the season and with our weather so warm I can see it. We normally have snow right now (for the most part) and its like spring.
