While at the pet store the other day with the family, my daughter wanted me to take a photo of this little guy who liked to stand on his back legs.

Today we bought out kids their first real pets. A couple of hermit crabs. The green one is Jenna’s and she calls it Beauty. The longer one is Ryan’s and he named it Scortch.

Here is a third photo of the series of fall colors.

Here is the second iPhone photo of the Fall Colors series. This was an up close shot of a leaf that is getting ready to leave.

I will be doing a series of photo’s of fall colors. Here is photo 1 of the series. Most of these photo’s in this series will be shot with an iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S.

The trees are getting ready for the winter. The leaves are all grown up and now must leave and join the real world where they turn brown, get raked up, mulched, blown/vacuumed, bagged and sent off to the local landfill. What a life.

I tried to get a little artsy without any post processing. This is tall grassy area at Watson Pond in Marlborough MA. Let me know what you think.

My daughter piled up some change that she has been saving and called me over to take a photo of it. She wanted me to use the photo for today’s shot. So I did!

Today we noticed our neighbors across the street putting stuff out for a yard sale because they are moving. I started to see swarms of cars stopping to check it out, so I figured they must have put a classified ad in the paper, which they did. I then said to myself, “Self, if you put all the stuff that we planned on selling at the procrastination yard sale (so I called it), I wouldn’t have to pay for advertising.” So that’s just what I did with the help of my family.

This is the photo of some of the money we made during this few hours of bargaining.

I could take photo’s of the moon all night. If you have a digital SLR camera or any other camera with manual settings, here are the settings I used: ISO 250, 300mm, f/20 1/100 sec.
I also used a tripod and a remote shutter release switch to reduce any shaking.
