Today I have ice cream on the mind. I didn't when I woke, but then I read that there was a giveaway for David Leibovitz's ice cream cookbook and a kitchen aid ice cream adaptor. Oh, I have wanted this pair for years. So now I have home made pistachio ice cream on the mind.<br />
<br />
With any luck, I'll win and can post photos.Timestephttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16469372086975546649noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21320826.post-57113436524068949702012-09-03T23:08:00.001-04:002012-09-03T23:08:55.116-04:00Project 365 - day 34Okay, it's not really day 34 because I have several pictures I took before this to post, but this was too good not to add. <br />
<br />
<br />
We went hiking today, and all of a sudden I looked up and noticed that this rock formation looked like Jabba the Hut. <br />
<br />
I do love the play of the trees I was looking through to the rock formation in the distance.<br />

The aquarium had a tiger (yep, never seen one of those either). I was pretty impressed that I was able to capture this picture of the tiger yet not make it obvious that he was behind plexiglass. </div>

So, I'm going to start, but not in the order they were taken.<br />
<br />
This was taken from my front yard using my macro lens. I almost decided I would take this picture the next time it snowed, but it was a good thing I didn't wait because the squirrels ate all the crab apples the next day.<br />
<br />
I just loved the way the snow was contrasting the red apples.<br />

So, I'm going to pretend that everything is on schedule, and I'm going to just post my old pictures as well as my current ones.<br />
<br />
This summer, we went on vacation to Vancouver, BC. Our first day, we took the ferry to Victoria. On the ferry ride back to Vancouver, I went off by myself to take pictures of the pass. I love the reflection of the land in the windows of the ferry.<br />

We bought a house and we are spending five weeks redoing it before we move in. Between that and keeping up with the girls activities, things are a bit wild and many pictures aren't really taken for the project.<br />
<br />
Last night, I committed a grave error and didn't bring my good camera to my daughter's baseball game. So, when she was put in to pitch for the first game ever, I was only manned with my iPhone to take pictures.<br />
<br />
Thankfully, I was able to capture an interesting one, even at a a distance.<br />

Then, when making an avatar, it cut off part of the coffee cup - I thought it added an interesting look to the picture. I hadn't considered this until technology accidentally showed me another option. I may have to try this again when I go back.<br />

I couldn't quite get the effect that I wanted, but I'm not sure what I really wanted. Maybe I needed to wait for the sun to come up a little bit more (but I was walking the fine line between sun reflecting off snow and sun melting snow). Maybe I needed to get the macro lens to change the focus. I'm not sure I'll have the chance to do this again -- depends on the spring snow.<br />

This morning, I wanted to try to take some backlit pictures of the snow on the bushes before it all melted. I didn't like the way they came out. Later, glanced over and noticed my cat sleeping in the sun. She looked so cool with the halo of light that I went to grab my camera. Just as I started to focus, she jumped up and I was quick enough to capture this picture of her. Not what I intended to post, but fun.<br />

She managed to get a hold of some of my sewing thread and ate enough to make herself sick. Monday she had emergency surgery to get the thread from her digestive system. Friday we brought her home. She still wasn't voluntarily eating, but everything thought that since she would eat some for me, that maybe it was just that she wanted to eat at home. Last night she started to eat kitty food. We still have to keep her from jumping on things for the next two weeks, but we (Spots and her sister cat included) are all happy she's home with us.<br />

Unlike when we lived in Michigan, we usually have clear skies that go forever.<br />
<br />
Last night I went out to grill and was drawn to the sunset. I loved how the sunset was orange and pinks and the silhouette of the houses from the backlight and the sky was that deep blue to black with a single star in the sky. It took me a minute to find a setting that didn't autoflash, and then realize the porch light was reflecting off the snow, and as I fixed all of those things the sun was still setting so I did lose a little of the effect, but I think it will be a cool picture once I get everything set and a tripod so I get rid of the shake.<br />
<br />
The first picture was taken with the close-up setting (not that I meant to choose it, it just happened). It gave it an almost fisheye effect.<br />
<br />

Because of the wildlife in our area, the cats aren't allowed to be outside unless we are watching them. When I peeked outside to see what the cats were doing, I saw Sparkles sitting up on a chair watching the sunset. Based on the reflection off the trailer, I'm guessing the flash went off when I took the picture. I'm thinking that is what created the reflection off the cats fur that outlines her, almost making it look like she was photoshopped into the picture.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

On our drive home from quilting, we took a side road and saw a graduate student standing in the parking lot of a housing complex with a camera. Then saw his friend run out of the door holding a pot of water. The girls and I slowed the car down while we watched them throw the water into the air and saw it turn to snow and vapor.<br />
<br />
Not surprising, the girls quickly asked if we could try that. Hey, we have to have some fun with the cold so we set the pizza aside and tried the experiment. The girls tried first and the water that fell on them froze before they could feel wet. Then DH tried:<br />

Usually, while we are driving, I will see the most amazing scenery. Being on the interstate, we can't just pull over so I can take pictures, so I decided to just pick up my camera and see what happened (I couldn't open the window because we had some pretty decent gust of wind going (it's not unusual to drive in 40-60+ wind gusts.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; line-height: 19px;"><br />

I loved the way the clouds were swirling. They are obscuring the mountains a bit.<br />
