I experimented in the house a bit. I still have so much to learn about my camera. Right now, I don't find the right settings for the bracketing. It is in the book, I can read about it, but I have no clue about what settings are for which symbol. Grrrr.
Anyway, I experimented with running water today, and took a shot from my upper shelf of my little bathroom shelving unit.
Do you guys think this is according to the challenge or shall I just bin them?
(I don't play to win, I play to learn more). Those challenges make me stretch out soooo far out of my comfort zone, meaning camera on automatic. :D:D

    Yep Andy, I totally forgot about the hour... No biggie. I still have to work on them anyway. (I mean, reshoot, not PS)
    Thanks for the nice compliment. I see myself as anything BUT creative. rolleyes1.gif

    Yours give me hope to work on mine, maybe. Andy's scared the beejesus out of me. I have always wanted a house with a nice table, etc. Like his. Three sacks lined up.

    I can bracket, I just ............ don't have anything to photograph. I was going to do mold. I thought it would be a nice abstract, but after seeing Andy's well, I don't want to show my mold.

    ginger, who doesn't even know what to do with a pile of jeans. Of which I have in all different sizes. I suppose I could pile them.ne_nau.gif
    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    fold them all with the fold nicely lined up Ginger, in a nice stack, and go macro...
    Mold with your macro can be very interesting.
    What about a shot through the window of your office or where you work?
    We are not all Andy's in this world...
    Give us fourty years and we will be as good as him, I am sure... rolleyes1.gif
    Walk through your house with your macro lens on the camera, and look at things closely. You will be amazed at what you find in the house...
    What is in your fridge for instance???
    Go girl, give us something!!! thumb.gif

    Photocat, thank you for the kind words,rolleyes1.gif , excuse me, just had to laugh, in 40 years I will be dead. I will be 65 on Saturday, may be hanging on now, but doubt that I will be doing much moving in 40, uh, years, rolleyes1.gif . Now I am just rolling across the page, just noticed that.

    In my refrigerator, better go macro in there, too. I have a photo of my dog and wall, going to print out Andy's instructions, put it in ps and look at it. I had a friend whose house looked like Andy's table. She was perfect. Laughing.gif I need a wife, really need a wife.

    gingerrolleyes1.gif:D

    Oh, I don't work. I am going to my daughter's for Thanksgiving weekend, but I think it has to be my house. (Shhh, I think I might have a macro lens, they say they are, but I can't get them to work, I have ignored that part, shhhh don't tell.)
