Trying Something a Little Different



For as long as i can remember, i have always loved to take pictures. Toting my camera around with me everywhere!


Now, i have never been that great at it! Believe me! But i just love to try!




Especially with flowers and nature. But then with opening my shop on etsy, it seems all my time is spent photographing my items for my shop.



So its been more like work, than for fun, if you know what i mean! And, granted i think i have gotten better over the last year or so.


But i still struggle when it comes to capturing my fiber pieces, verses taking pictures of flowers or landscapes. Why there would be a difference, i have no idea! lol


But, lately, i am getting back into just taking pictures for fun! And i have always loved playing around with photo editing tools, and graphics, and digital imaging.



Again, never really that great at it, but its fun for me. So i thought i would share some with you all and see what you think!



I've toyed with the idea of trying to sell some on Etsy, maybe as cards? or prints? i am not sure yet - Give me your opinions! would you ever buy anything like these?
