Photography Tip

I wanted to share this simple yet helpful photography tip. I have noticed that making as many adjustments as possible on your camera when taking a picture, helps make the editing easier. For example, try to adjust your white balance when taking the picture. Make sure your camera setting is appropriate for the type of lighting. Most cameras have a feature where you can adjust the setting for different types of lighting (sunny, cloudy, tungsten, fluorescent). Making these adjustments on the camera will not only make the photo editing process easier, your photos will look much better.

Visit With My Brother

My brother Justin was in town for a few days. We had a busy long weekend and it is too bad the weather wasn't better. Oh well. That didn't stop us from going to D.C. He had never been, so what better way to spend an rainy day that geeking it up at the Smithsonian! Then Friday night I took him to the AC/DC concert. We had a good time. I don't think my ears can handle loud concerts anymore, but AC/DC put on a great show! Here is a pic of my brother and I at the Apollo exhibit at the Air and Space Museum.

Etsy Treasury - Aloha Summer

Ah! Don't say goodbye to summer yet! We technically have a little over two day until Autumn. Take a look at this gorgeous Etsy treasury for your last summer fix! The Pink Camellia curated this wonderful hibiscus themed treasury. Don't forget to check out her shop here.

Pick 2 - Flower Photography

Flower photography looks great in pairs! I have just recently started offering any two of my flower photgraphs (does not include digital paintings) for one package price and no additional shipping charge! These prints are the same quality prints as the prints sold individually. These are even printed on the same great paper - Moab Somerset Enhanced Velvet 225 GSM fine art paper.
This is a wonderful chance to buy affordable art that will liven up any space. See the listing in my Etsy shop, Undefined Village.

Etsy Treasury

I created an Etsy Treasury late last night and thought I would share it with you. It is of my favorite color, grey! As it turns out it is a very grey day here in the D.C. area. Grey is perfect for everyday. It is so versatile. Please check it out here.
