Our family went to the Southwick Zoo today. I got tons of photos that I will be sharing for the next few days. Here is a picture of a Macaw. I hope you enjoy!

Do they still use that slogan? Anyways, I had a hankering for a chocolate snack and these were the closest. Is it true the green ones taste the best?

Here is another Chrysanthemum plant. Let me know what you think!

Here is a photo of a rain-soaked chrysanthemum. It’s been raining for days. If it keeps it up, I may have a photo of an ark soon.

Here is a photo of my daughter (aka: Peanut) holding a peanut.

Besides the fact that I am running out of ideas for photos, I started messing around and experimenting with shutter speed. Keeping the shutter opened for a longer time can create cool effects. This one I pointed at my neighbors lights across the street and moved my camera in a figure eight motion while the shutter was opened. I kept the shutter opened for 3 seconds. Maybe I’ll do some more experimenting and try some much cooler shots.

What does this photo look like to you?

My wife made a yummy fruit salad so I thought I would share it with all of you.

Here is a photo I took with my iPhone of our dog’s profile.

I did a lot of post editing on this one. Using digital photography as an art, a lot of post processing is sometimes necessary, and is also fun to do.

I focused on the plant life in the water and tried to capture the color of the sky as it reflected on the water. The trees in the background were deliberately blurred.
