May 22 (part 2)

More pictures with the new camera.  :)




May 22

It's been a little while since I updated my blog here.  Creative ideas were coming to me, but I wasn't acting on them.  Not that the inspiration was gone, no... just maybe the motivation was lacking.

Well, today I feel the motivation is back.  My husband bought me a new camera for my birthday and I am simply beside myself with joy!  It is a Nikon Coolpix P510.  Mine is like this only in black:


So out of the box, I tested it.  It came with a battery already charged so I could just put in a SD card and go.  Luckily, the local birds were in a friendly mood and one of our house sparrows decided to pose for me!!


I took that shot from about 15 feet away.  He's definitely a cutie!

So yeah, with the motivation back, you can expect more pictures from me!

Huntsville Cemetery, Huntsville PA 4/14/12

I have a fascination with cemeteries.  Not just any kind of cemetery though... I love the old ones, the ones without a lot of shiny new headstones.  I love the ones the look slightly worn and forgotten.

There is a small cemetery in Huntsville, PA.  It's possibly as large as a baseball field, but I think that would be pushing it a bit.  Anyway, when you drive in, the older part of the cemetery is to the right.  You can see the old-fashioned headstones, all thin and crooked.  There are more there, some broken, some toppled and starting to be overrun with grass.  All are definitely worth the look.
