William Wegman

On Sunday M, her sister, and her husband and I went to see the William Wegman exhibit. He takes lots of pictures of dogs, and a lot of times does photographs in sets of two or three. (But he's definitely a little weird. They aren't your usual cutesy pics!)

Anyway, I learned a lot at the art museum and decided to try my hand at becoming the next famous William Wegman artist! Wet parrots with flowers make great subjects!

You know, the second pic is funny cause it looks to a cursory glance as if she has got lipstick on :)

I pics are great. Even Though I have a biased view for Sophia. The last two pics are great! I think you have your 1st 2 show pics! BTW - I LOVED The CHICKEN salad!

Thanks! I loved the chicken salad too but I still have curry reaking from my fingertips!

I am more impressed with your photography every time you post pictures.

I like the first one.

And the note about Athena biting you for coming too near her flower made me LOL.

Happy new year!

Your photography really is good. Are you using a normal digital camera or do you have any special equipment?

[identity profile] sophiedoph.livejournal.com 2007-01-03 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey!

Yep, just a normal digital camara. I think it was $250 at the time, but now down to $239. I use a Canon PowerShot A620.

My favorite is the second, but all of them are great.
