Day 73/365 – Levitating or Flying
It’s funny how I captured my kids jumping. Look at my son Ryan (left), it look’s like he’s levitating but at the same time, my daughter Jenna (right) looks like she’s flapping her arms to fly. This photo shows you how you can use photography to quickly capture something to make it look like something completely different. Now if I could take a photo of my wallet and make it look like there’s a million dollars in it, that would be a neat trick. I hope you enjoy!
Day 72/365 – The Lego Fair By Ryan Tartaglia
My son Ryan wanted me to take a picture of his creation that he calls “The Lego Fair”. I guess that’s where you can see different animals and attractions. It’s small to us, but in his mind it’s a whole world.
Day 71/365 – Peanut Butter Balls!
These are the best treats ever made! I got lucky marrying someone that loves to bake! If you want the recipe, just let me know!
Day 70/365 – Reflections of Bottles
My wife bought some cool looking glass bottles at the local Christmas Tree Shop (don’t you just love a bargain?). So I put them on a glass table to mess around with reflections. Tell me what you think!
Day 69/365 – Snack Mix
Here is another favorite snack of the house. Even though I didn’t eat ANY of these before, during or after the shoot, I was very thirsty at the end of it. Just look at the photo, you can see all the salt on them. 330mg per serving to be exact.
WARNING: EAT IN MODERATION
Day 68/365 – Yummy Shot!
These are very popular with our kids. A bag of these don’t last long in the house. I liked having a shot that required only black and white from the start.
I called this the “Yummy Shot!” because, do you see the one in the middle? That was really yummy!
Day 67/365 – Time To Take The Meds
This day brought nothing but sickness. I had a high fever for most of the day. I am prepared now for tonight’s sleep and hopefully I can return to work tomorrow.
Day 66/365 – Flower And Home Show
My wife and daughter went to the Flower and Home Show. Besides hot tub and window replacement pamphlets, my wife picked up this cool look (not real) flowing plant. I took a ton of shots but with a little photo editing, I was able to create a cool looking effect. Please let me know what you think.
Oh yea, my wife now wants a hot tub. Who am I to argue?
Day 65/365 – Multiple Reflections In Water
Can you believe I only have 300 more days of this?
This photo is a very close up shot of water drops. Each show a reflection of the same thing but with a slight difference in each of them depending on how big and the shape of the water drop. IT shows a reflection of… Wait you tell me what you see.
Day 64/365 – Date Night!
I know what you’re thinking? Why am I taking a photo of ticket stubs? Well, one of the things a project like this can do is document special days where you did something out of the norm? That being said, I thank very much my parents who watched our two children while Sabrina and I went out on a movie date. This movie was really funny, as most Adam Sandler movies are. We had a lot of laughs together so I wanted to make sure I marked this day down.
