Sunset, last night

Just plain gorgeous...

Yet another gull...

If only the hummingbird in the backyard would be so obliging ... sigh!

Time Warp

This clock was a wedding gift to us from my sisters classmates (REC Tiruchy).

Decided to play with the camera a little bit. A colleague had taken a picture recently of pebbles under a water stream where he moved the zoom over a long exposure to focus on one single pebble in the center of the camera (a round pebble)

Tried that with the clock on a 4 second exposure. Gives you a pretty interesting picture..

Then got greedy and tried the same thing with a candle. Interesting, huh?
(what you see is not the candle's reflection, but a zoomed up version of the glass superimposed on the zoomed in version)

Like this trick. Next step, make my posing pro, Jr. stand absolutely still while I zoom her portrait..

The kids grow older, the photos get better..

Someday I should learn to ride a motorcycle and go on Route 1...

Compare to pictures from two years ago..

This photo goes into the Sisters at Play collection (1, 2, 3 )...

Hope they come back to look at this blog when they are all grown up.
