Righty tighty, lefty loosey..........

It is so funny that there is a group on facebook actually called I-still-say-Righty-Tighty-Lefty-Loosey-when-i-unscrew-things  Which is truly funny because now every time I loosen or tighten that's what I think of when I am saying righty-tighty lefty-loosey!  There you have it, another look into my head.

Last post I mentioned some new lenses. You may have guessed that they have arrived, you would be right except that my fish eye has not arrived thanks to the silly UPS driver who seemed to think he had the right house and they denied the package! COME ON, doesn't that seem odd? Dork anyway.
Well I do have my Sigma 24-70mm and my ultra wide extension. Though I haven't had much time to get out and play around a lot with these, I do have a few to share:

And I hope that you wouldn't think that I wouldn't add something:

And finally:

No alterations because I LOVED the contrasting colors here!
With any luck I have a photo shoot on Wednesday and HOPEFULLY UPS will get my package to the right house (mine) and I will have a fish eye extension. Fingers crossed everyone!

More cars

Last post I spoke briefly about the test track in the down stairs of the Cobo hall. Well here are the photos of that:




Yes, they did seem to have some mood lighting going on. No, we didn't drive anything, the line was longer than the lines at Cedar Point!
You might think this is funny, but this was my favorite thing about the down stairs:

You know that means I am craving spring time. Flowers, warm air, Weekends at Grand Isle and sun.

Return

Over the month of December, I had a few photo shoots that I will get to sharing, but first I want to share this wonderful flower that my husband and son bought me for Christmas.  They went shopping for my Christmas presents together and when they came home, Jaden carried in a plant that looked like this:

He said, "Mom we have to give this to you now because we won't be able to take care of it if we wrap it". Chuck said,"Jaden wanted to get you this one so you could watch it bloom", to which I replied, "then I will photograph it's growth".




With a final result in full bloom.

This was such a beautiful plant and since it is a bulb plant, I just store it until next winter.

Gators

When you come to Florida you expect to see alligators, right?  We haven't hardly seen any.  We have seen more things you wouldn't expect to see, like the manatees and we seen a dolphin.  Well on our boat ride we seen a couple gators and here they are:






The locals tell us that gators really start coming out when it starts to cool down, but when it is really hot they tend to stay more in the water. I suppose it's really better that way since I have no interest in being bitten by one!

One last shot before I go, just because it's beautiful!

Ready?

Aren't they beautiful?
