Iām ready to go

Had our first snow today , I guess I loved it, it was beautiful !! But most of all knowing it will be my last , made it even more beautiful š
Iām ready to go
So my iPhone,iPad and PC are not jiving,at all ,
ive skipped a week on here.but im still very much doing a photo in Hipstagraph every day. each week is a different theme.
the one im posting is…all about..JUXTAPOSING….. made me a bit nervous… mostly the word itself… which means..only..side by side, mostly opposites,unexpected combos of colors,shapes,and ideas…..simply put especially for comparison or contrast.
here we go……..
and there you have it. if I don’t think about the word itself, im fine:)
as for lenses and films we could use any combo this week, and on friday we will find out what the next torture wil be …lol.
Well its been a crazy week, lots of rain, and still rather cold here. a perfect time for me to sort and edit photos, I feel as if ive been on along journey š of sorts. memories with photos are the best!!!especially when the sun has gone, and the rain doesn’t go away.
So this past week our assignment for Hipsta365 was to use certain lenses..ones that don’t get used all that often… yes there are a handful I could certainly do with out..but here we go….
Time for a cuppa…. #Lenses~#Mabel and film~ Hackney
#lenses #Savannah #Film #Sequoia a photo from last year…remastered:)
#Lenses #yuri61 and #film #US1776… well the R is supposed to ber a russian R which is backwards.. just so you know š this was for 365 and also #windowWednesday.
how could i resist tasking this shot.. this poor woman seemed to be hold these cones for such a long time, it was like she was trying to decide if she should lick them both or not:) #Lenses #Doris and #film #Blanko
there is NO SMOKING aloud at our Farmers market, it does’t matter if your outside or not. and this woman thought She’d sneak a fast smoke … little did she realize I saw her:) #lenses #LeAllan and #film #Blackeyes44.
well Hubbys birthday was last week-end, so in Tradition we went out for a nice meal.. and i saw these antique banks sitting on the bar…. i don’t know how many people remember them, very heavy metal (maybe lead). anyway, quickly.. u would lay a coin in the hand and there was a gizmo in the back to pop it up the jesters mouth.and hed swallow it:) i remember cuz my gramma gave me one.. wish i still had it.anyway.. #lenses #chucnky and #film #DreamCanvas. btw… dinner was deeelish “)
as i mentioned earlier… nothing but rain….. well this was a wet weekend, last. Lenses…#Andre’ #Film #Cheshire. and #Apollo.
well that will do it for now š if you stopped by, thank you , and i hope you enjoyed looking at my shots for the week. i had fun. have a great week end.
So most of us know that April is the month where our senses wake up… also our allergiesš„“, but that also means the weather is getting nicer, and it’s staying light longer. So for last week we had to post things for spring….
Every year with out fail, just b4 the lilacs bloom, we get to see this lovely trail of Daffies. #LincolnLens and BlankoBl4Film is what I used.
And it wouldn’t be spring with out these guys:) I love nicnaks in my garden
#StavrosLens and #HackneyFilm
We were fortunate enough to climb into the mid70’s for a day, I live near3 colleges, and I believe I found one student playing hookie š. By the canal.
#AntoniLens and #DreamyFilm
Can ya smell it… the lake that is…..š. All though it wasn’t in the 70’s any more it was still a very nice day along the lake. So still , caught a little fog, and some fishermen too.#wonderLens and #W40Film
This is probably my favorite shot. Of course it has a bench… I collect them you knowš
#NevilleLens and #DaydreamFilm
Finished cleaning up the beds and came across this …. I loved the color
#VicuÅaCL Lens and #BlankoFilm
And on another walk we found Mamma Swan waiting for her babies to come
#LowyLens and #OttoFilm
And now to share my the newest member of our family……..lol
This little guy has been camping under our deck for some time now. He dug a hole in the beginning of fall, we thought he left… but.. there he is, He heard a noise, and he’s moving as fast as those little legs can carry him, back into his hole..under our deck.
Lol, this was mostly for Fraggy , since she shared her mice.š„“, I thought I’d share our new homesteader šš
If you stoped by thanks so much. And please have a great day.
.
Well this past week, was a bit of a struggle for me, as our assignment was TREES, don’t get me wrong i love trees. but right now, they are all bare. anyhow…. besides looking for trees new and old. we could only use 3 lenses, and film or flash we wanted., so i dug and i dug deep. and this is what i got. of course by last nite i was really into the swing of things… i say of course becuz, tonight we get out new assignment.
well my usual walk along the Erie canal. i used #Tree
#Stavros for the lens and my choice for film was #La Seine and the birds came from another app called distressed FX.
the old man in the #tree š again Lens #Stavros ~Film #Shilshole.
one early morning sunrise…#trees Lens #Gregory ~ Film #Float
on a recent walk in the woods. #trees lens #Sergio ~ Film #Blackeyes 1942 and apollo flash
my favorite, from our trip out west, this is in Breckenridge ,Co. . #Trees Lens #Gregory ~ Film #Reeta 10 and Flash #Jolly Rainbow 2X
my other favorite…. early spring snow and…. a woodpecker,i believe ? i don’t get to many good shots of birds.. i was so happy when i saw how great this turned out.
#Tree lens #Stavros ~ Film #Indo and Flash #Apollo 66
last years floods along the lake and river… #Trees … Lens #Gregory ~ Film #Indo 80 and Flash #Apollo.
the bay had over flowed so bad in that area, its no longer used as seating at this restaurant . i guess the ground never recovered for that purpose.
till next week… if you stopped by, thanks in advance. and if your an iPhone user, i hope this may have helped you with the Hipstamatic app .
So, we were fortunate enough to enjoy a beautiful Spring Day Yesterday. Ā High 60’s , and sunny, for this time of year, we were all basking in the sunshine. so after Hubby and I did a little more yard work, we ventured out. to the other side of town. He’s still learning how to use my mirrorless camera, by the time we leave for our med. cruise, he’ll b in good shape, i think.
ok, to continue the journey ,once we parked the car, we had a hike… with a hill, doesn’t look like much here, but my knees felt it:)
this park is along the Genesee River, in Rochester,NY
places for people to sit or fish… actually in the warm weather people can tie up their boats Ā and have some time to look around, in the summer months its pretty crowded.
dave hunting for a good shot.. or something:)
seems ive screwed up somewhere… and can’t post the whole view.. so ..on with the hunt for wild life….
the frogs were croaking up a storm, can ya see him?
and tons and tons of turtles…. my guess is turtle eggs are a delicacy for the Canadian geese:)
then we found Her…. primping her nest, like a mad woman. Ā but never moving her body. and then we saw why
Daddy swan, was in attack mode.. and this Canadian Geese was not going away
could have stayed there all day watching these 2. but nature was calling, in more ways than 1. Ā and i got my 10,000 steps plus š
something i saw on the way back .
ok, getting close now…..one more hill. AND……DO
… what we do on the week ends:)
we enjoyed Calamari..Italiana syle.. Ā and had a few brews š lol, one a piece. its pretty much all i can handle .
it was a great day in WNY, even though id rather be somewhere warmer, i made the best of it, and enjoyed it.:) Happy Sunday every one.
