Foresthill Hike

Hiking is a passion in my family. This weekend, my husband, brother and sister in law decided to check out local hiking trails. After Googling a little, we found a list of hiking trails in El Dorado County. So we've made it a goal to hike all these trails! So, my next posts will be the result of this goal. Our first stop was The Forest Hill Divide Loop Trail. Here's what we found!













Photo Gallery and New pic!

Some of my mom's friends got together last Thursday to go to a man's photo gallery, and I was able to go. This man painted his living room black, set up lights all along the ceilings for the photos, and hung his photos on the wall. He talked to us about his goal to go see every national park. His photos were great. I've decided I'd love to make it a goal to visit every national park as well.
As I was looking at his photos, I was reminded of one of the photos I have taken on the way to Utah. I thought it might be a good one to add.

Comments

I would love to get some feedback about my photos. If there are any in particular that stand out to you, or if there are any that are a little lack luster, let me know. If you have any suggestions, feel free to comment. Thanks!

Tahoe


On Memorial Day, Jr and I headed up to Tahoe for some hiking and photography. All I can say is that it was well worth it all!

More experimentation, this time with people and animals.












Distance Photos


After a whole year of only doing close ups, I decided it was time to expand my horizons (literally), and take distant shots of nature. Here are some of the photos.

While still sticking with my close up photography, I decided to take a step back from nature, and see what other interesting close ups I could capture. These are the results.

February 2010

Here are some of my new photos that I've taken. I've been trying new techniques with angles, lighting, etc, and so far I've liked the results more than my photos from last year.
