first assignment - 100 images

This is a photo I took outside of my house in our courtyard. I like it because it is true to life. There aren't too many houses on the South Side where you can find a large yard like we have, and that is one of my favorite things about my house.

This photo should have been of the same scene as I have in the following picture, but it was taken in the "fireworks" setting on my camera and it is just awful!

This photo is one that I altered in lightroom. For some strange reason, the people at this house painted their fence blue and I have never figured out why. I thought it would be interesting to bring out the blue in this picture to show that the fence just doesn't fit it's surroundings at all.

I love photos taken in sepia. And maybe someday I'll make it to Paris.
The beach photo also has clouds and the sunset, probably my three favorite things in one.
