Day 53 Roses in B&W

Roses in Black and White

Found these cool roses in the kitchen widow and really liked the light on them… I also liked the silvery feel of this with this black and white treatment…

This is quick iPhone snap of these red tulips.. I used a filter in the Camera Awesome app.. I liked the film noir look and feel.. Not bad for an iphone snap using the overhead kitchen lights for the lighting!

Empty Piggy Bank-Day 50

 

Found one of my kids Piggy Banks and he looked a bit lonely in the corner of the room… After I took his photo, he started to get a bit more attention. I think they may have started filling him up with a few coins!

These are kind of fun, they come in gelatin capsule and then when you place them in water they grow up! These are them drying after growing up!

 

Just Discovered Sumo Mandarins Day 48

These are by far the biggest Mandarin Oranges I have ever seen, about the size of a medium/large orange. I picked up a few at Whole Foods the other day and really got a kick out of them. After publishing this photo to my Photo a day Gallery on Smugmug, Dan left a comment from Suntreat Packing and Shipping in Lindsey,CA. They are the creators of these cool Mandarins. If interested here’s more info about the Sumo Mandarins. The Sumo’s are in season, go give them a try!

Riding Bikes at Springs Preserve Day 47 of 365

Riding Bikes at Springs Preserve

Photo a Day 47 at Springs Preserve

Spent a few hours at Springs Preserve today. Rented some bikes and rode with the kids through the 2.1 mile loop through the springs. It was pretty cool considering it’s right in the middle of Las Vegas, NV. My guess is that many locals have no idea it’s there or what is there to see!. I have started a 2013 gallery of images taken at Springs Preserve. I’ll post some other favorite images on this post as well.



And more photos can be found at my Springs Preserve Gallery
