Out of the loop     posted on 10th of february, 2008

The acceptance of this tern image surprised me because I figured it was too "ordinary" of a composition. But the light was pretty and the water had an interesting texture, so I tried anyway.

I've been paying attention to family matters (my mother had an aortic valve replacement on January 28th). All is well now but we did have a bit of extended time at the hospital. I only took a few photographs - for some reason my creativity was not at its peak! :) Anyway I am back home now and beginning the search again for interesting subjects to photograph.

Thanks Charles. I guess it really was the texture that brought it through. I'll have to add that as a keyword!

I appreciate your thoughts about Mom. Her staples were taken out today and they said she is continuing to do well, so we are happy about that.

AmyEmilia, for what it's worth, I think thats' a gorgeous photo. The bird is beautiful, but what really gets me is the texture and color of the water.

I hope your mother is doing well. I'll be keeping her in my thoughts.

I've been taking photographs since I was in my early teens, and I embraced the digital format in 2003, almost 40 years later. Now, I'm venturing into selling my work, and my entries on Dreamstime are my first effort. Please feel free to provide comments and criticism - I am always learning!

I maintain a Flickr photostream as well as my blog site above. My user name on Flickr is AmyEmilia (surprise, eh!)
