Day 243 – 365 Days of Photography

8-31-2014

Happy Independence Trinidad and Tobago!  Our Flag flies high!  Not the best image of the flag since the white seems to have been overpowered by the bleeding of the black, or on contra it just might be the best image after all as there is some tension politically currently and this just may represent how the people of the nation feel.

National colors are red, black and white.

Day 242 – 365 Days of Photography

8-30-2014

I am really having fun reviewing some older images and processing them.  Here is one taken in Port of Spain along the waterfront.  My husband was looking for several of his diplomas and we were instructed to go to a building here where they now house the science and tertiary education certificates.  I waited patiently and took a few shots along the waterfront.

Day 241 – 365 Days of Photography

I love skies, but I also love oceans, rivers, lakes or any body of water.  Water has the same level of connectivity; it is the one mass that touches every country.  We are all connected by the same body of sea even though in my region it’s name may differ, if I had a sail boat I could set out and get to where you are.  It’s infinite and sure.  That is why I firmly believe that pollution of rivers and seas should be controlled by a world police.  It should not be allowed in any country as the pollution thereof not only affects the country in question but the whole world rather.

Day 240 – 365 Days of Photography

8-28-2014

I have edited more of my pictures from last year and I bring to you more of my new editing series.   Primarily because I have not been out shooting as I’ve started a new gig and it is consuming most of my time.   I can foresee that the next week I may not get a chance to post at all until possibly the weekend.  So I forewarn you now.   Today it was fitting to enter this new chapter of my life as I celebrate the memory of my dad.  It was also fitting that this was  the image that I edited.  No bright sky here.   It’s been 3 years since he left us and the memory is still fresh and raw.

Day 239 – 365 Days of Photography

8-27-2014

Reviewing Old Images are fun.  I am looking at images from my trip to England and back then I was relatively new to my DSLR and furthermore, on this trip I started shooting RAW.  In addition I didn’t know much other than the fact that I liked taking pictures.  Well I am still learning and now I am trying to get accustomed to editing.  I am really a newbie here.   Well this particular image was boring to me. So I took the sky from one of my Caribbean beach shots and imposed on this Euro scene.  I think it adds way more drama to it.   Also did some uplifting of this image.  What thinks you?
