Photography

I don't consider myself a full-blown photographer; I'm more of a person with an interest in photography. In any case I do enjoy taking pictures. Here are a few (okay, maybe more than a few) that I am submitting to Maidens of Virtue photography contest. The theme is Pure. Enjoy!

  2. I like 5, 12, 16, and 17. In 17 the pink of the sunset is a really cool contrast with the snow! In 16 you centered the tree in the picture really well, and 5 and 12 are awesome as well. Good job.

  3. I really like looking at your pictures because I was there for most of them! Brian was having so much fun washing the car! My favorites are basicly 6, 9, 12 ;), 13, 14, 15 and 19. I had a hard time choosing! Thanks for showing them!

  4. I like 2, 7, 12, 13, 14, & 15. I have to admit though, I like 15 the most probably because it reminds me of Tennessee and hiking in the mountains. :) Plus, the lush greenery is amazing. Was it taken on auto mode or did you manually control shutter, aperture or what-have-you? Would love to know how your pictures place in the contest!

  5. These pictures are absolutely beautiful Elizabeth! The clouds are stunning and the flowers are lovely, and all the pictures are just... wow! =]

  6. Thanks for all the comments!
    Corey, all of them would've been taken on auto mode (some on macro). They were taken on a variety of cameras because I have a habit of grabbing whichever is the most convenient (or has battery and memory left). Chris has the only camera with manual controls and none were taken on his. Fyi, 15 was in Washington, although Valerie thought it was in Arizona, lol.
