Thank you, Stephanie, for giving me this chance to put myself out there. And thank you, ladies, for all of your kind, encouraging words and for being so welcoming. I enjoyed hearing your thoughts and seeing how a few of you have noticed patterns in your photographs, too. Now I'm on a hunt for mushrooms...I would love to photograph one from the ground :) <br /><br />kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00903178899872780251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-73897994551364487852012-10-26T16:15:41.884-07:002012-10-26T16:15:41.884-07:00Wonderful post, Kelly, and drop dead gorgeous phot...Wonderful post, Kelly, and drop dead gorgeous photos!!!!

As for me I love light, backlight is wonderful and I take a lot of nature photos.

Thanks for giving us "t...Hey Kelly, welcome!. Thanks for giving us "the down-low," so to speak on your approach to photography. I love your photostream on Flickr, and have watched you elsewhere too. I cant believe you've only been shooting for two years!<br />I love the thoughtfulness of this post. I've been photographing for years, but I still can't quite zero in on my style. I certainly know my favorite subjects -boats, barns, chairs, nature scapes, rusty old things.... I think my pics show where I prefer to be (as in outside!), I know all my pics express parts of me - but I just dont feel like someone could recognize my shots as mine.<br /> Partly that's a result of my enthusiasm. Every time I take a class, watch a vemeo, or read a post, I think "O, let's try that!." And yet, when I look at your images, when I see Stephanie's, or Leigh's especially - there is no need to look at the signature to know who is writing. Sigh ---- I'll keep looking! (if you notice anything - let me know so I can "ponder" on it please!)<br />Insightful and thoughtful, Kelly. Thanks for joining our little gang today :)Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05433584313253805817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-58514752078339077022012-10-26T07:17:26.917-07:002012-10-26T07:17:26.917-07:00Welcome, Kelly!

Lately I've been in macro mode, trying to get as close as I can and capture the tiniest details of my subject. But I love your low viewpoint! It's something I haven't done a lot of but you make me want to try it. I'm off to check out your Flickr stream where I'm sure I'll find more amazing images!

How that light changes the colors of the foliage, any time of the year, just seems like magic to me.<br /><br />Great post, Stephanie!

I never realized there was a pattern in my photography until that day. I will have to think on what it may say about my personality.Daniellehttp://danielle-batog.comnoreply@blogger.com
