We had some cold weather move back in but it is milder for this week. It is time again for Mosaic Monday so I am sharing some photos I took a few years ago on a trip to Martha's Vineyard.

Mosaics of Oak Bluffs

Hello everyone, I hope you enjoyed your weekend. We had some cold weather move back in but it is milder for this week. It is time again for Mosaic Monday so I am sharing some photos I took a few years ago on a trip to Martha's Vineyard. These storybook cottages are in Oak Bluffs which s…

I am being a bit lazy here today after our birthday party for our two sons both born on this day but 5 years apart. All our little grandchildren running around after a turkey dinner kept it almost as lively as when our own boys were little and had their friends over for a party. Rather efficient of me to have them on the same day so one party would do,don't you think?Anyway,it is colder here today so I played a little with my camera indoors so what better then some dainty china to practice on. My camera is a Canon Rebel XTi as I am sometimes asked and I love it.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCNO70epRttWIwsq4OnOivyjUjW339Vq7ntvAJic3aPwHOuzXT0BHDMd_MoZwgb-n3-QwMljzw4-iKVqkCR6jY4-sj5pDSzPGCseIEHxRfY79_82gd7NuBG1QUUXnvQwVhzxYwETY3vn2Y/s1600/IMG_3821-713017.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453367278062051490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCNO70epRttWIwsq4OnOivyjUjW339Vq7ntvAJic3aPwHOuzXT0BHDMd_MoZwgb-n3-QwMljzw4-iKVqkCR6jY4-sj5pDSzPGCseIEHxRfY79_82gd7NuBG1QUUXnvQwVhzxYwETY3vn2Y/s400/IMG_3821-713017.jpg" /></a> I enjoy reading tutorials on photography once in awhile to try to learn something new but if anyone has any tips you would like to share I would love to hear them. I know I use use A tripod but I do find it restricting so don't use it often-what about you do you use one? I did a little test last summer on taking some of the same shots with and without one but couldn't really see a difference but this summer I am going to practice using it again on different types of shots to see if it gives me a sharper pic.<a
