The Pomegranate Chronicles

While on vacation, it was so nice to feel the warm breeze in my hair, the bright sun on my face, and the lovely smell flowers and salt in the air. Walking through blooming gardens on the warm sun kissed tiles was such a stark contrast to the 8 inches of snow we were dealing with before [...]

It seemed people really enjoyed my “butterfly” moment so I thought I would post a few other shots from that day. We really had a beautiful day in Prescott Park, Portsmouth NH. We walked the gardens and played Frisbee. While touring the gardens we even saw “Peter Cotton Tail” hopping around. Griff kept saying he [...]

I was excited to get a little time to take a walk alone, just me and my camera. It is a quick walk along the backside of our town. It was a calm overcast day. There were a few other people walking their dogs, but other than that, it was nice and quiet. The walking/bike [...]

This is my 700th post. That’s amazing. I have joined Kathy over at Postcards from the PP again this month for her photo scavenger hunt. I had SO much fun last month, I just had to do it again. I had NO idea how hard this month was going to be. Breakfast. A Cross. A Sculpture. [...]

Last month’s photo scavenger hunt by Postcards from the PP had “rainbows” as one of the items to find. If you remember, this was the rainbow shot I chose… What I found to be the coolest part of this hunt is realizing rainbows are scattered around my house during the late Winter/early Spring. The angle [...]

One of the scavenger hunt shots (over at Postcards from the PP) for April is “April Showers”. I have been fortunate to have plenty of opportunities this month to take those shots. I thought I would share a few… Capturing “April Showers” was a fun challenge. How is your April going? Have you caught any April [...]

This month I joined Kathy over at Postcards from the P.P. for her photo scavenger hunt. Each month she gathers a list of items to snap with your camera. Here are my finds for the month: A rainbow. Griffin playing with the light that reflects in the kitchen from our front door. This time of year [...]

As I long for Spring, Sunday we got a taste. The weather was amazing here in the North East, hitting almost 60 degrees. I took Griff (and my camera) for a walk. I was so excited when not far into our walk, we found a small yard with NO SNOW on it. In the patch [...]

I know Spring is around the corner. Unfortunately, there is still over a foot of snow in my back yard. This Winter was rough. It was a record year for snow. Midway through January, it really started to depress me. That’s when I decided to purchase fresh flowers. I have had fresh flowers in my [...]

After writing my post on “Don’t Let the Cup Overflowith”, I realized I didn’t take the pictures correctly. This time, I understood the exercise better and got the desired results. So the point of this exercise was to understand ISO vs. Shutter Speed. If you half the ISO speed it will automatically double the shutter speed [...]
