365 – Day 2

1st Group: Project 365

New shoot from "Disney's Tree". It's a "Liquid Amber", or just call it "Maple tree".

Disney was our beloved dog who passed away in 2003. This tree was planted and dedicated to Disney in 2004.

It has become a very big tree now. Whenever the leaves turn red in autumn, it reminds me of the great memories we had with Disney.

Our beloved dog Disney's memory stone under his tree "Liquid Amber" which is turning red now.
The white stone was found in our yard. It looks like there's a paw print in it, so I kept it with Disney's memory stone.

Disney had past away for almost 6 years now. The picture of Disney on the stone was taken at the California Poppy Field in Lancaster, CA, 2001.

My 365 Photo Projects – Day 1

 

Since I bought my first DSLR in August 2009, I set up a Flickr account and started upload pictures to my album. I want to record my learning process and see my own improvements.

I recently discover many “groups” in Flickr for the “365 Days” project. This is perfect for what I need. So, I decided to add one photo a day to different 365 groups for different categories.

I’ll post my daily pictures along with some descriptions here at the new blog. This will make my “Photography Diary” even more complete.

 

The first group is: Project 365

Since there’s no restrictions on the subjects, I can post whatever subject I like to the group.

The 2nd group is: 365 Around the House

I’ll post pictures taken in my home or yards here. I want to learn to take good interior pictures.

This is one of the twin beds in the “Yellow Room”.

I love the beddings and comforters I chose for this room. The white pillow case with red flowers were from IKEA. The “Red/orange/pink” comforter with pillow sham were bought at Target store. I just love the colors and textures.

 

The 3rd group is: A Year of Portraits

There’re so many 365 groups for “self portraits”, but I am more interested in taking pictures of others. This group does not limit the portraits to “self portraits” only, it can be anyone’s portraits. So, I jointed this one.

Our little guests: Yang Xuan (7) & Yang Xing (10) @ Frank's room. They are the most beautiful sisters I've ever seen! So pretty and lovely! I just love to have them as my guests.

====================

By joining these three 365 groups, I’ll be able to constantly practicing taking pictures in portrait, interiors and other misc. subjects.

I want to continue to do this for at least one full year. And I believe by the end of the 365 days, I’ll become a better photographer.
