Over Christmas, my mother gave me this Yashica camera of my father’s that she had found…and inside was a half shot roll of film. I just finished off the remaining frames. Cannot wait to see what pictures Dad had taken on the first 12 frames....over a decade ago, before he died. Sending it off to be developed today! Cross your fingers that it actually develops!

My fish, Lieutenant Shinysides, got a new tank today…he had to spend a few hours in a jelly jar.  So I shot him. Intentionally out of focus as I loved the colors and the flow so much.

I needed a stock photo of the elf on the shelf for my company’s blog…well, there are basically ZERO options for this…so I made my own, with my own elves!  Using my brand new (had it for 3 hours!) Sigma 18-35 1.8 lens, natural light, an antique bench and a piece of white poster board hanging off the back of my couch, I was able to capture “Randy” and “Gary” the elves perfectly for a blog image.

I hope that you’ll use Randy and Gary as a pic for your blog too!  Enjoy!
