More Photos From My On-line Photo Class

Here are a few more pix that I took during my Photo Silly (link is on the right side of my blog) on-line photo class.

I got a kiss from this alpaca.

This one looks like he has a rabbit suit on his head.
In the next pix we were to play with lighting and movement (blur).

Look Carefully at everything in this picture. Regalo, the Kiger Mustang stallion, is in the center.


Happy Wednesday!

Photo Silly

I'm taking a really cool on-line photo class called Photo Silly (click on the button to the right and it will tell you about the class) with Steve Sonheim. http://sonheimphoto.com/subpages/About/bio.htm  Yesterday, my assignment was to take a photo every 30 minutes for eight hours.  Here are some of my photos.


Freshly shorn alpaca.

Pooping alpaca.

Horse Heaven!

I just recently finished an awesome on-line drawing class taught Steve's wife, Carla.  Click on The Art of Silliness button to the right of my blog to learn about it.


Happy Tuesday!
Yes, the sun is shining in Portland today.

Brave Horse


     This is a horse that used to be afraid of everything that moved, so for him to be standing in the middle of this water is a BIG accomplishment.  Yeah, LUX!!!

Happy Tuesday!
