Day 91

Pumpkin, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Trick or Treat time! I can't resist Pottery Barn costumes, they really are the best. Happy Halloween everyone! More shots from today on Flickr.

Day 90

Pumpkin guts are goooood, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Pumpkin carving turned into a whole other adventure when the cat was more interested in the inside than my daughter. I swear she will eat anything.

Day 89

Warm Fall Goodness, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I think it was close to 70 outside today. I am so happy the weather seems to be holding out. Trick-or-treating is no fun when you have to do it in winter coats. If you see a common theme emerging in my shots over the past few days as far as appearance goes I am in love with a newly learned post processing technique called the Orton Effect.

Day 88

Forget this!, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I didn't think this kitty wig was going to go over very well and I was right but I got my shot.

Day 87

Gamer Mommy, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I had this t-shirt made mostly for myself. This is me showing my somewhat geeky side. I am a World of Warcraft player. I have numerous level 70 toons and am definitely a Horde girl. If you have no idea what any of the above means. That is okay. :)

Day 86

Pumpkin Art, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Pretty good work I'd say coming from a not quite 4 year old. Of course that is the mommy in me talking.

Day 85

Fly away little seeds, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

My favorite part about cat tails.

Day 84

Good luck charm, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

This is my lucky frog. I carry him with me everywhere hidden inside my purse. He is not much bigger than my fingernail.

Day 83

Projects unfinished, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I tried to sit down and scrapbook for a bit today. Some days it just doesn't come to me and I can sit and look a page for hours and come up with nothing I like. So I packed it all back up to try again for another day.

Day 82

The look of pure joy, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

School field trip day to the corn maze. I swear she was having fun besides being sick and it being just above freezing outside.

Day 82

Golden Sunset, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

No big piles of leaves in our yard for awhile. On the plus side, no raking for a few more years when our baby trees get a bit bigger.

Day 80

Today is a T-shirt kind of day, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I'm a mess today. My child has a cold and woke up at some horrid time this morning so I have been cranky all day. I normally don't wear t-shirts that often. This is one I had made up at an embroidery shop for scrapbooking.

Day 79

Out of Business, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Had a great time today with the Boise Photowalkers. This is my favorite of the shots I have gone through so far.

Day 78

Warm Fall Day, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

What a perfect day today. We did a family outing to the corn maze and picked out our pumpkins from the field. Such a contrast from the snow we had last week.

Day 77

Simple Pumpkin, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Might as well get some more use out of these.

Day 76

Lunch time, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

My daughter convinced me I needed to take her out to lunch today so we opted for the drive in. I was messing around with the manual settings on my point and shoot. Not my Nikon, but not bad either.

Day 75

Night Lights, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Welcome to my new theme of the week:
"Crappy shots because I am a slacker"
Enjoy!

Day 74

Jet plane at Sunset, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

The 2nd time this week I have put off a photo until sunset and scrambled at the last minute to get something exciting for the day.

Day 73

Pumpkins and stuff..., originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Sad that I purchased something primarily to shoot it?

Day 72

Sunset Through the Glass, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

The view through my frosted glass window in the bedroom at sunset. The dark bottom color is the fence.

Day 71

Frosty Fall Colors, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Brrrrr! I frosted my toes and fingers outside first thing this morning before the fog burnt off. But I am sure glad I did!

Day 70

Where I wanted to stay all day, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

It actually SNOWED today. I can't believe it. One of those days that makes you want to curl up in bed with a good book.

Day 69

The Red Hat, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

The little monster had some dress up time with Grandma tonight. I had a hard time getting her to stand still long enough for a shot.

Day 68

Breast Cancer Awareness Month, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Too many women in my family already have been affected by this disease. I know I am probably going to be at high risk as well. Don't forget to do your monthly exams ladies!

Day 67

"Don't bother me", originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Got started on the Halloween decorations today and Miss Tika decided she was fragile material. Converted to black and white due to the high ISO.

Day 66

Concentration, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

The Little Monster has figured out how to use the computer all by herself. We get her set up on Playhouse Disney and she is just lost in the world of games. I am so amazed how fast she picked up on clicking with the mouse.

Day 65

Love Birds, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Our last day in Seattle. My husband took me to see his old stomping grounds at University of Washington. These two birds were huddled up in the tree. The dreary weather made this a great black and white. My telephoto lens and lack of steady hands or tripod however did not help.

Day 64

The Open Market, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

We ventured first thing in the morning to Pike Place Market. My husband told me this was the place to visit if you came to Seattle. What a unique experience it was. Open air markets up several levels of steps. Fresh fish, flowers and produce everywhere.

Day 63

The best dinner..., originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I'm a little late in updating my 365 shots because we took a quick getaway trip to Seattle this weekend. Our first night ended with dinner at the Space Needle. The weather was horrible but the dinner was wonderful.

Day 62

My favorite pair, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

A sad day. I had to throw out my favorite pair of capris today. Not only are the days numbered this year for wearing them but they finally gave out with a huge rip. They lasted several years but just didn't quite make it through this season.

Day 61

Mini Pinks, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

I am not feeling in the groove with my photography today. I tried to shoot in manual today instead of aperture mode which I usually do and ended up with a lot of crap shots. I went with my daughter to the zoo for a field trip and was so disappointed with most of the shots. This is probably my best and most properly exposed one out of them all and it isn't even of the zoo.
