2. Daily Photos

My Task At Hand

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! © Copyright 2009 Lady Kates Photography

    July 1 I have just spent the last two days, from 9-5, serving on Jury Duty! For the most part, I was in a chair, sitting still, in windowless rooms, attempting to listen attentively and NOT nod off! We are released for lunch, and I've quickly made my way outside, choosing to walk to a resturant. The location is in downtown San Luis Obispo (California). There is an additional element of beauty in S.L.O. at this time of year: the incredibly gorgeous, periwinkle colored, fragrant, blossoming Jacaranda trees! I took my camera today, in hopes of being able to get some shots of a few of these beauties, which are sprinkled all around the city! As soon as they dismissed us this afternoon, I headed straight for the car, grabbed the camera, and found the first photogenic Jacarandas, at the Mission. I dilly-dallied my way to the freeway, looking for other Jacarandas, and ended up at a little town park. This was a beautiful and peaceful place to enjoy the setting sun, the stunning colors and perfect weather! A GREAT way to unwind after being cooped up in a Jury box!! I created a new gallery to house some of these Jacaranda tree images, and a few other pretties which caught my attention this afternoon: How to unwind after Jury Duty! !!Hey...Johnloguk!! I found out yesterday that you have a twin in this area!! He is a fellow juror! I even introduced myself to him during a break, explaining SmugMug and the Daily community, and that he has a twin in Lincoln, England! I truly wish I could get a shot of him to show y'all ! After the SP's which John has shared with us, I am certain everyone would agree! It's pretty uncanny!! Please send prayers and positive this way!! I have to do the jury thing again tomorrow, then we get 4 days off! Back again on Monday, through Wed., and maybe Thurs.! :( :(
    June 29 Today is my sister's birthday!! I found these beauties in her yard a while ago! More gorgeous evidence of her incredible 'green thumb'!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GAYSIE MAE!! I've included this image in: My Sister's Garden. (The purple is Lobelia; flowers are @ 1/2". The red is Begonia(?); flowers are @ 1 1/2".)
    June 26 My attempts at getting a good shot of a Hummingbird haven't proved sharp enough....yet! I've also found that I begin to run out of patience waiting for them to come back!! So, I decided a little PS practice would be fun! I included another shot, and PS practice, in my Contender Gallery
