Started collecting them from May and on..
Before that, I didn't really commit to photography, and had no idea of the functions on my camera...
I have nothing tracked before May as all my shots on Flickrs are post May 2009.
I have pictures taken previously, but they are on lap top and unavailable atm...
My favorite subjects are insects and spiders, but I tried to contain myself here in this post

May -
Discovered the macro function on my little pont and shoot and went outside to practice on tulips!!



June -
Kiss me, I'm a prince!
My first experience with selective coloring!



July -
Butterfly taking cover from the rain...



August -
Couldn,t decide myself between those 2...
My ah! so cool! grasshopper shot!!



And my best water drop I think..



September -
Equilibrium by a garden spider..



October -
I love the fall colors....



November -
First kitten photo shoot, 5 weeks old..



December -
Frost above the River, as the air temperature is colder than the water temperature...
It was about -20 Celcius that morning..
Played with GIMP a little bit, added the oil painting witha minimal touch, then the clothing finish.

Wow! October is beautiful!!!

Great all round shots Marie, I love your bugs and spiders :D. And not to mention all the cute kittens/cats you have!

I shouldn't even have to comment on your macro shots Marie. They speak for themselves, they are great. The grasshopper and the water drop are easily my favorites. Keep up the shooting, excited to see what you'll be able to do once you get your dslr!

thanks for the nice comments



Well, My goals.....
I would love to have a real camera and explore photography with it, and not feel limited by technology (or lack of..).
I saw in a Costco you can have a book made with your pictures and whatever description you put..
I want to find more spiders and insects and make an informative book for my kids..
You know, like spiders have 8 eyes and blah blah ..
Spiders make a web that way.... they eat this...
Lots of research for the information, and I need a lot more pictures!!!
But I have a passion for bugs... should be fun

yuck ! =p bugs give me the creeps
but on a serious note, nice pictures even though i find bugs icky the spider one is my favorite !

i erally like the raindrop flower/spider/cat ones..

what camera?

my macro 'point and shoot' doesn't do as well.

October

Fortunately i had the luck to see and enjoy
all of them already in the previous weeks and months.

But its a pleasure each time to look at them again
and witness from the very beginning how good you got with your passion throughout the time!

Keep on following your dreams Marie

Wow!

I love em'! especially the one with the frog

The spider creeps me out though..

Keep it up =)
