Photoshop is Fun!

According to Amazon, I purchased a copy of Photoshop Elements (PSE) 7 in September 2009.  Since that point, I looked at the software exactly once.  I have a Dummies book, and still haven’t really cracked it open.  I really am a photo purist – if I can’t get it right out of the camera, [...]

Vintage Michelle

I’ve often wondered about this photo – apparently I used to like to pretend to iron.  And I like to wear a plastic apron.  Maybe this was a prediction of my current crafty state?

I’ve also wondering what’s up with my right hand…

You know only a child of the 80s would be [...]

The Camera

So here is a picture of my new Canon Xsi camera with a very old lens attached…

That black patch on the bag is the most serious velcro known to mankind.  I will know if someone is trying to steal my camera, because of the sound that velcro makes when the flap is [...]

The Gist

The photos are totally random, but I wanted y’all to have something pretty to look at – more pictures from the Getty Museum.

So here’s the gist of LASIK…  After some Xanax and some crazy eye numbing drops, I was under the first laser which cut the flap on each cornea.  I then sat there [...]

Photo of the Day

I took more pictures over the weekend… this time, went up to the Getty Museum, and dragged Jason & Christina along to keep me company (Steve was camping in Sequoia with my photo guru Scott, who has some AMAZING photos).

The Getty does fun things on Saturday night – stays open late, plays great [...]

Fireworks + Desert = Problems

Our fun camping weekend was cut short early Sunday morning – like 12:15am early.  We were awoken by the campground host, informing us of a fire in neighboring canyon and that we should evacuate.  From the little bit of info available on the interwebs, it seems as if the fire was across the [...]

Disney, Super Bowl, and a Whole Bunch of Lazy

Saturday was a complete lazy day, I gotta admit. Which is fine, I had a long week. I am now the queen of 1099 forms…or at least I was for 127 of them this week. What a pain! Coupled with a lot of month-end & year-end reporting we were wrapping up from December, I [...]

Photo Booths!

I am always on the lookout for places that have REAL photobooths, not those stupid pretend photobooths that give you an inkjet printout on computer paper. I found one on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls in 2006 (which wasn’t very good)…and then was able to take this one last summer @ the Orange [...]

New Project

This is going to be my new project. And based on my past Mouse Adventure experiences, I bet I can compile photos from Disneyland to complete the whole calendar.

Fall 2008 MA Team – Cory, Shannon, Michelle, [...]
