Look Up | Henderson Photographer

I will freely admit that I am an iPhone and instagram addict. 
I have been using both for about a year and a half now (I was a little late on the bandwagon) and I wonder how I ever existed without either of them!
My phone is often the only camera I have with me, so I use it daily to capture my life. 
I have been involved with a few different photo challenge groups which have all helped me push my creativity.  In those groups, I have met so many other talented photographers and iPhonographers and made some awesome friends from all over the world. It's also been fun seeing what my phone camera is capable of. I try to find interesting ways of shooting objects and one of my favorites is getting underneath and shooting up. This weeks blog circle theme is "look up" so I thought I would share some of my favorite shots from this year that fit with the theme...
 I often find myself looking up because I have a profound love of clouds and deep appreciation of sunrises and sunsets.
 Sometimes changing your perspective on an object and shooting up from underneath it can make something ordinary look a little more interesting.
 Having a beautiful blue sky become the backdrop of a simple object can make it stand out and become something a little more special.

I hope you've enjoyed a little taste of my "look up" iPhone pictures.

The Adventures of Skelly | Halloween's Final Adventures | Henderson Photographer

It sure has been fun seeing what kinds of trouble Skelly could get himself into this Halloween season. 
I sure hope this was as much fun for you as it was for me!
I just want to give a very big THANK YOU to anyone who followed along from the beginning. 
I appreciate you!
I'd love to know which one was your favorite.


Here are Skelly's final Halloween adventures...
 Yesterday, he helped with the pumpkin carving...

kind of!

And then he tried a few different locations on the porch so he could check out all of the trick or treaters.
I'm thinking he was hoping to scare them so they'd drop some candy.
To feed that sugar addiction, you know!




When the last of the trick or treaters had gone and I was ready to sit down and relax with my wine and a treat, he tried to hijack it!  I don't think so, Skelly!


Here are some bonus shots / Skelly outtakes that were never posted...
 






 
 


 
 
 
 
 
Here are a few of Skelly's buddies that have been hanging around the last month and participating in his adventures...
 






 
 
Very early this morning I found Skelly meditating.
I'd like to think he's reflecting on his last month out of the box and all the fun he had and trouble he got into.
Until next year, Skelly...


Thanks for stopping by!
