Day 303/365 - Snow On Trees

We got slammed with snow last night that caused a lot of tree damage. The snow was heavy and the trees still have their leaves. I took an early morning photo walk around the neighborhood. So this photo and the next few ones will be what the storm left behind. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Enjoy!

Day 300/365 - Dog Was Confused

Ok my dog wanted to go outside to do her business. She got a few steps out the door and even she was like "WTF is with this snow in October?" Freaked out, she ran back inside as you can tell by the foot prints not going all the way to the stairs in the upper left of the photo.

Day 299/365 - A Request From A Fan!

I love facebook and the Like system. I know when people actually see my artsy and not so artsy photo's. The scene in this photo was requested by a fan on facebook. Disclaimer: The fan is also my facebook friend, no purchase necessary, void where prohibited, you must be 18 years or older, bla bla bla, etc, etc, etc...

Day 298/365 - Hey Look At That Scenery

I was driving home and the sky looked cool, so I pulled over, whipped out my iPhone 4S and snapped this photo. I then converted it to black & white and viola. More artsy stuff ;) Let me know how much it sucks!

Day 297/365 - Cloudy With A Chance Of A Photo

I used my iPhone 4S to take this shot. Even though this phone take really good picture, I did major post processing on this HDR photo. Had the hankering for some artsy stuff. Let me know what you think.

Day 295/365 - You Got Your Tongue In My Peanut Butter

In our household, after we are done with a jar of peanut butter, we sometimes give our dog the treat of cleaning it out. Yes, it's not the healthiest thing to give a dog, but they sure do love it ;) The problem is her tongue is not long enough to get to the bottom of the jar. It's really funny to watch.

Day 294/365 - Our Dog Looking Out

We recently moved the couches around in our living room. Now one is under the window. Bindy, our dog, finally figured out that she could climb up on the couch and look out the window. Taken with the iPhone 4S. Great camera on this device!

iCloud Photo Stream

I am using the iCloud Photo stream more and more. It is a very useful feature especially if you have and iPhone, iPad and a MacBook. Now my last 1000 photo's that I've taken on any of these devices will be with me anywhere I am. That seem pretty handy to me.

Wow, is anyone else having issues with Siri today? It is really slow when it actually responds. No wonder why it's still in Beta.

Day 284/365 - Leaves Are Changing

The trees are getting ready for the winter. The leaves are all grown up and now must leave and join the real world where they turn brown, get raked up, mulched, blown/vacuumed, bagged and sent off to the local landfill. What a life.

Day 281/365 - Easy Money

Today we noticed our neighbors across the street putting stuff out for a yard sale because they are moving. I started to see swarms of cars stopping to check it out, so I figured they must have put a classified ad in the paper, which they did. I then said to myself, "Self, if you put all the stuff that we planned on selling at the procrastination yard sale (so I called it), I wouldn't have to pay for advertising." So that's just what I did with the help of my family.

This is the photo of some of the money we made during this few hours of bargaining.

Day 280/365 - An Autumn Night's Moon Over Massachusetts

I could take photo's of the moon all night. If you have a digital SLR camera or any other camera with manual settings, here are the settings I used: ISO 250, 300mm, f/20 1/100 sec.
I also used a tripod and a remote shutter release switch to reduce any shaking.

Day 278/365 - Solid As A Rock

Before I talk about the photo, I would like to send my deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Steve Jobs. He made what the the computing industry what it is today. His vision has been seen and will remain a vital factor of the future of technology. Thank you Steve for what you have given us.

I dedicate this photo to Steve Jobs as his vision was always rock solid. Thanks to him, I am now a Mac.
