Day 289: Cracked

I woke up today thinking it was Friday :(  Grrrr!!  Seems like the weekend doesn't want to come!!

About today's photo, I liked the texture of the material trying to get out of the crack.

Day 288: Stormy Days

It's Wednesday today!! Only two and a half days before the weekend! Yay!!! This week is lasting for ever!!  :(

The days are getting shorter, the weather starts to feel colder... maybe the rain will come sooner than we expected... at least that what the clouds seem to shout...

Day 287: Figment of the imagination

What do you see in the photo? A leaf or maybe the head of a bird with a huge beak?  I definitely see a bird hehehe and I can also see its eye! Amazing how our imagination works, right?

Day 286: Light

Hello, hello!! Are you ready for another week? I'm not hehe I feel tired already! Hopefully the week is gonna end soon and I'll be enjoying the weekend again :)

It was hard to pick the subject for today's post, I wanted to try something different and also explore other kinds of subjects.

I can tell you that it took me a while to find a good perspective for this particular subject but I found it in the end :D

Day 285: Printing time

During the weekend I set up my new printer, it took me a while because I had to profiling it to match the colors of the monitor.  I'm so happy with the quality of the prints!! It's a great printer!!! :D

So, for today's post I choose to photograph some of the photos I printed.

Day 284: Afternoon snack

I was in the balcony when I saw this little one climbing to the top of a tree, it was really high and the branch wasn't thick enough to support her weight. I remember thinking: "what the heck is she doing up there?".  Then, I heard a "crack" and I realized what she was doing hehe  Seems like the ripe ones were right on top! Then, she just sat under the tree and ate it.

Day 283: Relic of the past

What better way to end up this week's photo than with a close-up of a small kind of fly :)  It looks really prehistoric, right? hehe I guess there are still prehistoric beings walking or flying among us...

Day 282: Butterfly

I was walking to the mail box today when I saw a beautiful leaf on the ground. I grabbed it and thought, this is gonna be my inspiration for today's photo :)  My original idea wasn't the final photo though, I tried different angles (I wanted to have a very sharp and close-up image of the nervations of the leaf) but none of the photos seemed to be right, at least according to my judgment :P

After a while I thought I had the photo but I was wrong, it just wasn't as good as I thought it would be.  So, the only alternative was to take more photos, of course!

I'm happy that I did it because I came up with a totally different approach to the subject :)
For me, today's photo is a red butterfly resting on a stick.
