Tazo and Ms. Bear
I know it has been a while since I have posted anything new. My life has been a bit crazy over the past month. In one month I lost my job, moved out of my apartment and into my brother and sis-n-law's casita and began trying to figure out what to do now.
The Lord has been very good to me. I have been getting enough freelance work to keep a positive cash flow coming in. That's always a good thing.
I can't say things have been easy though. I have been overwhelmed many, many, many times. Now I'm settled into my new, but hopefully temporary, diggs and things seems to be a bit less overwhelming.
I've been sick the past couple days so, I shot what I could. Tazo is my reluctant model for days such as this. But he's so darn cute, especially when he sleeps with him Ms. Bear.
The first image was taken using the Lensbaby. I'm still playing around with this amazing little lens.

Lensbaby
Today I received my Lensbaby. This was one of the prizes from the Aperture Nature Photography Workshop.
I didn't have much time to play around with it, but here are two of the images I was able to capture.
The is my aunt Denise who just passed away.

ROAD TRIP!!
Okay, I'm not sure when this road trip is going to be taking place. I don't even really know where the road trip is going to lead me. I have some research to do. Here's the story.
My great grandma had her own photography studio in Missoula, Montana back around 1910. She was a pioneer in the photography field and took her camera with her on expeditions and family outings.
One of the outings, she captured an image she called "50-miles of the Rockies". I'm not sure where she was when she captured this image. I'm trying to contact my aunt to see if she knows a bit more about it. She did a lot of family history and I'm hoping she will know.
The last time I traveled was in January to Yosemite with the Aperture Nature Photography Workshop. By the time I'm able to hit the road to try to re-shoot my g-grandma's image it will be about six-months since that trip. That's about the time frame I seem to have before the itch to travel someplace become unbearable.
So, here is a copy of the original photo. You will need to click on the image to see it a bit larger.
