My version of "Daily Photos" will be ever-so-typical of myself: 'A Different Little Twist'!!

I'm using this gallery as an impetus: one of my present goals is to add several photos per day into this website.
As I'm doing so, I will choose one of the photos to include in this 365 day project!
(If I experience a difficult time choosing which image to use as my 'Daily Photo', I'll add the other choice(s) into my Contender gallery)

Occasionally, there will be days when the photo was actually taken on that particular day!
This will probably be governed by available time and my creative spirit!

The photos within this gallery are available to order as prints and other merchandise; click on the 'buy' icons.

I will appreciate any comments and/or critiques; click on the 'add comments' on the bottom left, and please include your name! You can also vote on the photos, if you choose; drag your pointer onto the enlarged image on the right; a box will appear on the top right which allows the voting process. Just click either yea-or-nay!

Thank you for visiting this Gallery, and I hope you enjoy the photos presented here!

LadyKatesPhotography > HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
LadyKatesPhotography > November 23 Did a fabulously fun photo shoot with my little friend Julie this afternoon!
LadyKatesPhotography > November 21 Happy Belated Halloween!! In mid-October I took my 'portable portrait studio' to the Central Coast Feather Fanciers Annual Poultry Show. And I must say, we had a blast! The epitome of Work! Work! Work! Regarding my previous post: We were strolling through Carmel Village, after dark; the storefront window displays were fabulous! One of our favorites was a furniture and light fixtures shop, with VERY unique inventory! I was shooting through the glass, using my 18-200; zooming in on a portion of an incredible wall hanging, a portion of which is also lighting. In actuality, the portion in my post is @18" x 10", of a crescent moon, which is @ 8" in front of a fabulous sun, with rays and a face. The sun is not lit. It has a big open smile mouth, with these glass spheres pouring forth out of the mouth. I loved how the light and camera settings didn't allow visibility of the sun. The entire wall hanging is fairly round, with a diameter of @5-6ft. Thank you for the compliments and the welcome backs & missed yous! Gave me the warm fuzzies!
LadyKatesPhotography > November 19 The truth is: I HAVE REALLY MISSED THIS COMMUNITY! I've missed my interactions with the members, have missed seeing what's going on around the world--through the eyes & lenses of incredible photographers--and I've missed this as a way of journaling. My plan is to play a bit of catch up, as far as the journaling, for my own records; probably not on a daily basis. I have a couple of extra projects which I'm working on that need some focus. The catch up will be some highlights of 'life as I know it' since August 25----which is the last of when I was being kind of regular with postings. I took this image November 4 during a wonderful time away with my friend Myki (MyKey was a member here for a while). Our adventure took us to Carmel (CA). This is SOOC. I was practicing how to save photos on my new MAC. I'm going to leave you wondering until I post next!? Hopefully tomorrow, I can look through some Daily pages to catch up on many of you! ************************************************************************************************************** I did put an explanation on my next DP (with the Halloween Rooster!)
LadyKatesPhotography > Photo taken November 4 "Before"; actually came "After"!
LadyKatesPhotography > August 25 While spending some quiet time outside this morning, this little guy was very busy feeding nearby. I had to go get the camera! Apparently there are some who have experienced leaving comments here on my site; hopefully that will be resolved tomorrow.
LadyKatesPhotography > August 24 HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVAN!! Here's a little taste of home for you! This, and the new gallery (linked below) is what the view was behind Travis and Kimberli as they were married. This last Thursday I was returning home from watching my son, Travis, coach his Women's Soccer Team (Cal State San Bernardino) as they played a scrimmage game in Santa Maria. It was a beautiful, sunny evening and as I was approaching Shell Beach, I knew I had to stop in order to take some photographs--specifically for Maria and Alex! ---Maria and I took Alex to our favorite birdwatching area. On that particular day, there was low light and it was quite foggy. I took this shot from approximately where Alex is kneeling in the 'foggy' image. I created a new gallery of my brief stop in Shell Beach.
LadyKatesPhotography > August 23 (Sorry John! Headed to kitchen for breakfast, before uploading DP, and a few of Bambi's buddies were cruising through our yard. So, this one seemed much more apropos for today.) Early last evening, I found it VERY difficult to practice being non-judmental when someone here in our (heavily wooded) neighborhood chose to use some big-ass gun (within city limits) and attempted to kill one of the bucks that wander the properties :( Somehow my husband, Maria and I instinctively knew what the shot had been for; I ran in the direction of the shot in time to watch a buck finish coming down the slope and manage to cross the street onto our property and collapse in the gulley:( He had been hit in the rightside butt. I immediately started yelling at the top of my lungs "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING??" And on, and on, and on I yelled---I haven't been that mad in a LONG time. Retrospectively, it was very unwise of me to have be screaming like that NOT from the cover of some trees. I am grateful right now for my safety. We had called the police; three squad cars arrived. The buck got scared and managed to get up, climb the hill and hide behind our shed. They did put it out of its misery:( The shot came from across the street and up the hill; our neighbors from across the drive came out to investigate also. He was pissed, too, and walked to that next street uphill to try to find the asshole! Coward never did show their self---knowing the cops would have hauled their sorry ass out of here! And the police would have had to find the 'fool' actually standing there holding the gun. Of course, 'someone' never had the courage for confession; was a bummer:( Then we learned that since it fell on private property, that it would be up to us to take care of it. After several calls, we found someone who was very happy to look forward to fresh venison. I'm still trying to not be judgmental; and am not succeeding with that quite yet:( Check out these links to photos I posted of some of our deer: http://www.ladykatesphotography.com/Daily-Photos/My-Task-At-Hand/4264698_TXQ5N#422589921_FhZW8 http://www.ladykatesphotography.com/Daily-Photos/My-Task-At-Hand/4 Some of our bucks: http://www.ladykatesphotography.com/Weekly-Challenge/Challenges-for-2009/7087350_zhcHC#440898222_W3N3c And Alex posted one from when he was recently visiting here: http://aktpics.smugmug.com/My-Galleries/The-Great-Outdoo...rs/RV-Roadtrip-2009-Highlights/9030721_fm69J#618234177_Wj3rR
LadyKatesPhotography > August 19 Spent a little time at a water park this evening; the light was wonderful; as was the company!
