Remember that I said I found myself on a somewhat unexpected journey?
Well, it was to Warsaw, Poland and Belfort, France!
Here are a couple of shots from the airplane on the way.
I asked my hubby to get us seats on the left side of the plane...
I was hoping that I'd get to see the Aurora Borealis!!
And I did!!! It was amazing at 36,000 feet!
Enjoy! More shots from the trip to come.

by Mary Denman
Twitter: @MaryDenman

Welcome back!
Unfortunately, due to some pretty frustrating/huge/confounding (pick one or two, or all three) technical difficulties with my computers this week, your regularly scheduled Photo Tip, Part 2 on Taking Indoor Shots with Available Lighting has been pre-empted. I will be spending the weekend talking with tech geeks to solve the aforementioned challenges...
However, I thought I'd take this time to get a better sense of how I can best serve you with photography tips going forward.
I know that you can search the web for any photography related questions you may have. So I want this place, my blog, to be a comfortable place you can come anytime for tips that relate to you and inspire you to do more with YOUR photography. To inspire you to use your own photography on your blog.

So when we were at the beach, I saw an Osprey nest on a cell phone tower.
I stood patiently waiting for the birds to return from a fishing trip.
I was rewarded with some great shots of the bird with a fish in its talons.
Here are a few of them.

Monday's Musings - Bloom Like a Rose Through the Thorns of Pain
By Mary Denman

Most every loves a rose. They are beautiful flowers. Lovely creatures.
But you can't enjoy them fully without dealing with their thorns.
Yes, you can buy thornless roses where someone else has broken them off. But you just can't grow roses or pick them without encountering the thorns.

Photo Tip Friday - Learn to Love your Camera: Playing with Perspective
by Mary Denman
Twitter: @MaryDenman
Instagram: MaryFDenman
Today, I want to challenge you to learn to love your camera.
Why? Because when you learn to enjoy the process of taking pictures, you can really get better with your photography.
Why? Because you'll allow yourself more freedom to try to take more pictures and try new things.
Why do you need to do this? Because if you're always hoping for the perfect picture the first time, you'll be disappointed and will want to quit trying.
But I want you to keep getting better and better. I'm always pushing myself and learning from others.
So, how does this pertain to playing with perspective? I would love to show you! Let's get started!

Monday's Musings - A Maya Angelou Quote to Ponder
by Mary Denman
I recently read this quote by Maya Angelou that caught my attention.
It made me think.
A lot.
In our culture here in the US, we tend to celebrate the greatness of people. Of accomplishments. Of a job well done.
There's nothing inherently wrong with this.

Photo Tip Friday: How to Blur the Foreground or Background for Greatest Effect
by Mary Denman
Welcome back! This week, I want to teach you a technique that I've really been working on recently. I want to share what I've learned.
The big tip for this week is to learn how to blur the part of the picture that will provide the most interesting perspective for the photo.
What does this mean or look like? Let's get started.
These are all shots I took at a wedding. This is my youngest daughter. The candle caught my eye. I focused on her and let the candle be out of focus.
Of course I had to try it both ways.
