Down the Long and Winding Road Street

In the interest of trying to post something here more often, I am going to begin posting at least one shot (maybe two) from each weekly theme for my 365; I am now past two hundred days. I haven’t quite taken a photo every day but I certainly have learned a lot about photography and I hope it shows in my images. This past week the theme was “streets”. Here is a shot I have been wanting to try for awhile now. It is kind of cliche but taking these kind of shots, for me anyway, increases my understanding of how various types of photos are made.

Introducing….Willow!

Meet the newest addition to the Shumate family…Willow Clara. Her nickname is “cuddles” because she is always begging to lay in someone’s lap and loves to snuggle. She makes a wonderful photographic subject and her constant play gives me plenty of practice in capturing motion. My daughter insisted upon buying her a pink collar and I think it suits her rather well. For more photos of her, please visit her photoset in my Flickr photostream.
