My husband, the photographer

I'm proud to say that all of the pictures that you see in this post were taken by my husband. He took them all on Tuesday evening. And I think they're beautiful.

They are all SOOC shots (Straight Out Of Camera). He was standing in our backyard.

I'm not jealous. Really. I mean, even though I've always been the photographer in the family, I'm so glad that he's found something he enjoys.

Look at these colors. They're just exquisite! I just love the dark tree branches against the vibrant hues of the sky.

This is the only sunset photo I tweaked a tiny bit for him. I ran TRA's Slice Like a Ninja on it. It just gives a slight sharpen. (And I just think it's fun pushing a button that says Ninja). TRA is Totally Rad Actions. They work with Photoshop.

And when he was done with the photography session, he headed back to our house. I was in the pink countertop kitchen with my apron on, making dinner. I'm not kidding. I was!

And that's all I have to say about that.

Like Miz Booshay says, encourage each other!

 

Until tomorrow, my friends . . .

  3. I have always liked the way bare trees are silhouetted (pardon my spelling) against a colorful sunset. He did a good job getting those pictures. I can never get a forest of trees like that out here in Colorado because all we have are pine trees with a few aspens mixed in.

  5. Beautiful pictures. Whether he knows it or not, your husband has an eye for photography.

    Poor MPM, she's really suffering!!!! And since the sky looks like zinfandel, she's in worse shape!!!

  8. So what did you make us for dinner?

    The pictures are fabulous- but it looks cold! Winter makes some great sun-ups and sun-downs.

  10. Those photos were gorgeous! (Now I feel bad cuz hubby is always asking to use my camera and I protect it voraciously! Well he did break my last one...never mind...maybe I'll get him his own!) After all that rambling - is that your house in the last photo? I LOVE it!!

  12. Hey, thanks all. He said I could use the photos but is now upset that I mentioned they were his. He doesn't want to be involved in my blogging life. Sheeesh.

    For dinner I made a corn & potato chowder. It was fairly decent. I had garlic bread with it. And brownies and ice cream for dessert. For him. Ok. I admit it. I had a brownie.

    And yes, this is where we live. We are caretaking for now. After my husband lost his job due to his brain cancer, we were looking for a place to rent and this came along. It was a miracle.

  13. I think maybe you are rubbing off on him... or maybe he just is learning at the foot of the master...

    I keep trying to motivate myself to get out the camera - but it's just been way too cold out. (See my embarrassed face, lol)
    Awesome pictures your husband took!

  27. Lovely! I am seriously thinking of getting a camera. Any suggestions for a very very very novice beginner rudundant type?

  28. He did such a great job on those photos. I am loving them. Oh and the image of you in your apron cooking dinner in a pink countered kitchen makes me smile.

    Good luck at Hopkins to both of you. In my heart...

  29. Oh yeah, nobody could disagree with it, the photos are amazing. He got a skill in photographer.
    I wonder how he captured it perfectly. :)

  30. The third photo reminds me of Tiffany glass. Your sweetie has done a great job!

  31. That's great! It's wonderful of you to share the joy of photography. That's not an easy thing. I'm a little territorial with my camera and I hate to admit, I'm a little pleased when my husband's pictures aren't great. Oh crap, I think I missed the point of your post. Will reread!

  32. Beautiful pictures!! My sunsets aren't as pretty because I have too many trees in my grove and they block the sun too much. But yours are so great. Congrats to the shy husband.

    Love your blog!!!
