Break the Rules....

The best shots come from knowing all the rules - and then breaking them!!!  I can't wait to learn the rules that I can break.  Here is a couple of shots from NYC.  It is my kind of town - New York is.....

This town has a life of its own. Note the street fair and, of course, people always in a hurry!

It's A New Day!

This blog was started four years ago and this is my first POST!  I've just started taking a photography class and I want to use this venue to share some of my photos!  Most of my pictures are of my travels, my pets or my children and grandchildren.   Along with the pictures, I will share some of my thoughts and opinions with regard to my subjects.  Please do keep in mind that these are MY thoughts only. 

My class instructor is Susan McConnell who is a fantastic photographer.  She owns the www.museeschool.com where I take my lessons.  My camera is a Canon Rebel T3.  As I learn how to use the camera, I hope that my pictures will reflect my abilities as a photographer.  I am currently using my iPhone to take pictures.  It does a great job - which is why I have over 500 pictures.  The pictures below are from my iPhone. 

 
This one is from my back yard with the pond in the background.  I've got a huge bullfrog and 15 koi and goldfish that make this pond their home.
 
 
Please come with me on my journey!  It should be a blast!!!
