Pictures of Everywhere

I don't claim to be a great photographer or anything, but I absolutely LOVE taking pictures. When I see something cool, pretty, or just plain weird, I usually take a picture of it. I'm known to have my camera on me at all times...no fancy equipment or anything - I just use a simple little Canon point-and-shoot, but sometimes I still get some great shots. No the lighting isn't perfect, and the camera isn't always focused on the right thing...or it's tilted wrong or something - but I still love these pictures.

So, I decided to put up some of my favorite photos from all over the place. I'll add more every now and then I guess. Photography is art too :-)

Guitar Update #2

I had a lot of time to paint this past weekend, so here are some updated photos. They're not the BEST photos ever - they were taken at night and so the lighting wasn't the best. I didn't take the time to do much editing in photoshop or anything, so just know that the colors aren't as vibrant in the pics as they are in real life. :-)

I fought with the water part a lot on this thing...I think I changed the design about a million times before I actually started painting it. Then I DID start painting it once, and I still changed my mind so I started over.

Here's where it stands now...and yes, this is how the water will look...but I'm thinking about lightening up the darker blue into a lighter blue. You may be able to tell that all of the wave shapes aren't painted yet...just a few near the bottom/center (the part that there's a close up of). We'll see what happens!

Oh, and the little white dot things inbetween the waves aren't painted yet...so that's why they look kinda weird still in the close-up. I haven't decided if I'll just make them the same blue/white combo that the actual waves are, or if I want to add a different color in the mix to change it up a bit. Maybe some yellow/orange to bring in the sun colors...and to kinda serve as a 'reflection' of the sun. Or who knows...maybe even just some random color to make people ask 'why?' :-)
