Weekly Photo Feature: In the Window

Early! Thought I'd do it before I forgot.. Here is a photo of my chickens. We have Red, Orange, Orange Cream (she has a little more white in her feathers), and Black. Black is the oldest; we've noticed more of a limp in her step lately, but she is getting old. We bought the other three at the same time. They each have personalities and they are so much fun to have. Especially now that it's warmer, we can enjoy them out of their coop. Whenever there is activity in the kitchen, they insist on being as close to the sliding glass door as they can get. Sometimes, I can even hear them pecking the glass curiously.

Weekly Photo Feature: Macro

Late! But I have more than one photo!! If you were to go through all of the photos I've taken since I first got into photography, you'd notice that most of what I photograph is taken in macro mode. I just love capturing textures and little details. I was a little distracted, or I would have had many more photos to post here! The first is a photo of one of our chickens, Red. We named her that because she is obviously red, but her breed is called Rhode-Island Red. Here's her feathers!





























The second photos is of Cody's '94 Jetta when he had the hood up. Sadly, he is not going to attempt to fix it anymore. It's been a great car for him, but it's just been too expensive to keep as a project car. It's pretty sentimental for me because that's the car he had while we were dating. Now he is using pieces of it to fix another Jetta of the same body style, which is a TDI (diesel with a turbo!), and I think that will help the '94 live on in our hearts.



























The third and final photo doesn't go with the theme, but I loved it anyway.

Weekly Photo Feature: Shifting Seasons

A little early, but I wanted to get a head-start so I don't skip again! Since it is still pretty cold here, I just have snow.. But I found some green in a paw-print!
