Portraits

By Jon Marrelli

In an attempt to learn a bit more about how the software I recently purchased actually works, I have spent the last few days playing around with some photos in my library. I was able to punch up a few landscapes, and show some details in some architecture.

However, I've never been that great at taking photos of people. I like landscapes and architecture, and as a result I take a lot of photos of them. I am always worried about what people will think of photos I take of them, and as a result, I don't take that many. This is something I really want to fix.

So with that in mind, I have worked on the two portraits below, both to attempt to boost my technical knowledge of my new software and to start learning about taking photos of people. Please leave me some feedback about what you like or don't like about them.

The Greasy Spoon

I've added another family blog to the "Finer Links" located to your right. This is for "The Greasy Spoon" a blog created by our own Chef Chris. According to the blog description, this is the place for greasy gears and recipes, and a place to share frustrations of Ford trucks and delicious recipes. So enjoy the gift of grease, gears, and gustatory goodies.
