This week's word was "light." Being the Christmas season, I knew I could find something to shoot. I had a lot of fun with this one...
First, a picture of our Christmas tree. The light didn't come out quite as sharp or clear as I wanted them and I missed with a few things. Maybe someone with photographic knowledge could let me know. Aperature setting? Shutter Speed setting?
Here is a picture I messed up on when shooting the tree, but I thought it looked cool enough to post...
Here is a Santa statue thingy with lights we have. I thought the stars behind it looked cool on the wall.
This is a light in the parking structure I was in the other day. If you look closely, you can see a spider in the lower right hand corner of the light.
This is what happens when you put on your shoes in the morning WITHOUT light. Jess wore two different colored shoes to work on Friday and I had to save her by bringing the correct shoe.
This is the worst kind of light - a red light!
After I took the red light, I saw that the clouds behind it looked cool so I decided to take a picture of the sunlight and clouds. I think it came out pretty well.
My fellow blogger Night Panther, a GREAT photographer, participated this week so be sure to go look at his great light pictures he took!
I haven't looked at what next week's word is, but I can't wait to see.....

Nice pictures, especially the bright sun. I've not seen that for many days now.
I like the shoes thing....everyone has done that before.
We don't see much of that light in the sky thing this time of year. I will have to stare at it for a while.
Nice shoes! That's so funny. I got a call from Michelle once begging me to bring here some socks to work. She had done the same thing only with socks. I bailed here out too!
I like your pictures a lot. Flair pictures like the clouds at the intersection are some of my favorites. As for the sharpness in the tree picture, it might need a steadier tripod and a remote trigger to get a really sharp picture. Even small movements can add a wiggle. Try a larger aperture (smaller f-stop) to take the shortest possible exposure, less chance of something moving. I think it came out really well. Google "star 6 filter" for a really cool effects filter for shots like the Christmas tree
I did that with shoes before. Mine were both black but just a little different styles. I had to wear them all day and try to walk everywhere fast enough so no one would notice.
Really nice pictures! Your Christmas tree is beautiful. I have never done the shoe thing, but that is mostly because I don't have too many pairs of shoes and the ones I do have a completely different from each other.
Dmarks - Yup, sunny California...
Evil - Feel free my friend!
Wayne - Thanks for visiting! We are nice husbands for bailing them out.
