366 of 2012 - Day 325

366 of 2012 - Day 325. There was a storm brewing, and Wonko called from the road to say he'd seen lightning. Weeb and I went outside to check it out. We saw a few flashes, but nothing spectacular. I really liked this view from our backyard. About ten minutes after this shot was taken, it started to POUR and the storm provided some rare thunder and lightning.

Taken with my Canon PowerShot G12 (the fancy point and shoot), edited with Photoshop.

366 of 2012 - Day 214

366 of 2012 - Day 214. With the new home, I get a new commute. And this new commute comes with frequent waits to get onto various highways. So what's more fun than pulling out your camera in traffic? We were at a full stop; I promise! This is a farm, of some kind. And some bushes. And the mountains. Ah, nothing more lovely than nature - surrounded by a load of grid locked traffic.

Taken with my Canon PowerShot G12 - f/4.5, 1/160 sec., ISO-125, camera hand held. Cropped, added text and adjusted Levels and Curves, then applied Unsharp Mask with Photoshop.

366 of 2012 - Day 212

366 of 2012 - Day 212. This is a shot of the hill just behind our house. It goes up. A lot. I'm going to find myself in VERY good shape after a few months of walking to the school to pick up my girl and home again, once school starts. Yup, here be hills.

Taken with my Canon PowerShot G12 - f/5.6, 1/60 sec., ISO-320, camera hand held. Cropped, added text and adjusted Levels and applied Unsharp Mask with Photoshop.

366 of 2012 - Day 210

366 of 2012 - Day 210. Once upon a time, someone thought - hey, let's move families into shoe box houses. And the people went for it. People like us. Because shoe box houses are where it's at, yo. Our box is around the corner, on the left.

Taken with my Canon PowerShot G12 - f/2.8, 1/1000 sec., ISO-160, camera hand held. Cropped, added text and adjusted Levels with Photoshop.

366 of 2012 - Day 209

366 of 2012 - Day 209. Yeah. I'm done. For a little while. I'm sitting down now. Like, for a few hours. I hurt. Everywhere. But we have a Bodacious Brown House! I don't see a lot of photography or timely blog updates in my near future.

Taken with my iPhone, cropped and text added with Photoshop. And yes, I was so tired when I edited these that I tagged everything for the next week as 'Yasher Has an iPod. I meant to say iPhone. Moving turns your brain into mush.

366 of 2012 - Day 207

366 of 2012 - Day 207. We have officially moved into The Bodacious Brown House! Exhausted. And now we have to UNpack the millions and millions of boxes and bits of furniture and stuff and junk and crap that we so proudly call our own. I don't see a lot of photography or timely blog updates in my near future.

366 of 2012 - Day 206

366 of 2012 - Day 206. Packing sucks. Moving sucks. Cleaning the place you're moving out of when all you want to do is have some magic force move all the stuff into your new home and unpack it also, rather, sucks. I don't see a lot of photography or timely blog updates in my near future.

366 of 2012 - Day 205

366 of 2012 - Day 205. Packing is exhausting. Something about this funky skeleton finger puppet on an empty bookshelf made me laugh. I suspect insanity has crept closer than usual. I don't see a lot of photography or timely blog updates in my near future.

366 of 2012 - Day 204. I have many lovely Sharpies. I can never find them when I want them. Unpacking is going to be a bit of an adventure. I don't see a lot of photography or timely blog updates in my near future.
