random is good

So I was going through my camera and found some random shots that I thought I would share with you for something to do. There's random animals, objects, and landscape. Because they are random shots you might think they may not have the same amount of impact as the rest of my blogs. But scroll down and see for yourself.

I was able to creep up close enough to this goose to snap this photo.
I never knew how tame these animals were until I began to snap photo after photo of them.
Eventually they began all walking and swimming towards me hoping I had some food to share.

I had lots of fun photographing different geese.
This is the same goose as before.
I guess I was getting a little to up close and personal for him.

This is Andrew's pup, Memphis.
Everyone thinks german shepherd's are vicious dogs, but he proves you wrong.
He is the most gentle dog I know and still acts like a pup even though he is almost 3 years old.
Here he is waiting for his mama to come home after work in the snow.

Here is my proof of Memphis' playful attitude.
He was rolling around the floor playing with his rope when I snapped this shot.
He's such a cutie :)
It looks like he enjoys being in the spotlight of the camera!

I love taking photos in mirrors.
I was sitting in the passenger seat of my truck on Christmas day.
My favourite part of this picture is the sky, looks like we're in for a big storm!






Here I am still in the truck.
It's weird to think about how blank this photo looks,
but in all seriousness there is a life saving device photographed here!

This was right after I opened my camera on Christmas morning.
Thank you dad for charging the battery over night! :)
Daizee Mae looks so innocent here in the sunlight, I love it!

This picture seems very dull, but I love it for some reason.
The dull lighting and background bring out the bright colours of the tooth brushes.
Mine's the orange one :)

Take 'er easy!

my Nikon and I

Since I can't go out right now, I am sitting here with my Nikon in my hand remembering all the good times we have had together so far. The first week after I got my Nikon, the two of us were inseparable. Within the first two weeks I had taken nearly 500 photos. I went on a couple adventures over the Christmas break while learning how to navigate the incredible camera. Here are some of my favourite photos that arose out of those certain adventures.

I love how my Nikon catches the lighting in this photo.

This photo is so Christmas-y it could help me feel the Christmas spirit in the middle of July.

My Nikon, best friend, and I made a quick visit to the beach for some photos.
I saw the beach frozen over like this a few weeks before and couldn't believe it.
I have lived in this town for over 16 years and have never seen anything this incredible!
My friend was yelling at me 'catch the birds, catch the birds!'... so this one's for you Rachael.

This is, and probably always will be, one of my favourite photos that I first took with my Nikon.

The focus is incredible for me.

I feel like I could stare at this picture for hours and never quite get bored of it.

The sun came out quickly while I was taking this photo.
The ice looks magical captured here.
It looks like there is a tidal wave in the background, but don't worry, it's just clouds.

So I spilled a bowl of popcorn down my stairs and this is what came out of it.

The reason this photo intrigues me is because of the one button that stands out from the rest: "TALK".

No need to explain this photo, look at that smile! :)

shout outs to my brothers!

my new baby!

Well I hope everyone had a good Christmas and new years! I most certainly did! I got spoiled this Christmas since Santa brought me what I asked for + more! I got a brand new Nikon D40 camera and 2 new lenses; an 18-55mm and 55-200mm.
So now I'm the nerd out of all my friends that is going to be taking pictures every chance I get! This is why I decided to start my blog on digital photography... or more like Nikon photography :)

Peace out homies,
