weather the past couple of days, so yesterday I took the kids out to the park to get some fresh air, it was lovely :) &amp;nbsp;While sitting on the bench relaxing, my daughter brought me some flowers, I only had my iphone, but couldn't resist taking a few pics. &amp;nbsp;Nowadays I prefer using the iphone to take photos, maybe it's the editing I can do there and then, then post and share, hhmmm....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I noticed yesterday that someone had cracked my right wing mirror on the car, I was not happy, especially as a couple of months back a few times we had nails in our tyres. &amp;nbsp;Just the other week also our neighbour had her back window of her car cracked and eventually ended up shattering, so I'm not sure if it's the same person targetting some of the cars here, but whoever it is it makes me really annoyed, these people don't have any respect for other people's property, if it happened to their car, well....probably the whole world would know about it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But enough ranting for today, the weather's gorgeous again, I want to enjoy my day insha Allaah

camera and take some outdoor pics, which I haven't done for ages! but may have to postpone for another day, as my mum may be coming, it's been weeks since she came last, due to her car being off the road.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But before I get off the computer and start tidying like a mad woman, I wanted to share a website I just came across called &lt;a href="http://dailyshoot.com/"&gt;The Daily Shoot&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;, they post assignments each day on &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/dailyshoot"&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;which after completing you can then upload to one of the photo sharing sites, like flickr for example, and then tweet a link to your photo to share.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The idea is to encourage you - The photographer, to get your camera out and start shooting, as they say 'practice makes perfect!' So I may have a go at this insha Allaah.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also wanted to share a photo I added some textures to yesterday, it may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I love it, one of the textures I used is 'northern lights' by pareerica, you can find the texture on flick &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/8078381@N03/3716347742/in/set-72157603745560932/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;, I've used it on another photo and I just love the effect it gives, I also used a texture by Kim Klassen. Hope you like it :) ....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/capturingthebeauty/5520412521/" title="Textures by Kim Klassen and Pareerica

I will be adding more of my personal favourites as I go along.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',

do with this programme and I've only just started out. &amp;nbsp;This evening I enrolled on another of Kim's courses 'photoshop essentials' which is going to start on 15th March, and I cannot wait! it's about time I learnt photoshop, and what better way to do it than as part of a group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;You can check out Kim's website &lt;a href="http://www.kimklassencafe.com/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I've just got myself an iphone, and downloaded a couple of cool photography apps, namely 'LomoLomo' and 'Instragram' and have managed to capture a few cool shots, like the canon photo I have here on my blog. some of the photos people are uploading on Instragram are amazing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ok, well I'll leave you with this re-edited photo I did on photoshop earlier this evening as part of my homework for the texture course, I actually prefer this to the previous one, &amp;nbsp;hope you like it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a

Knowing myself I don't think I could be fully consistent with it, that's why I would choose not to openly broadcast it and just take each day as it comes, and try my best! Anyway I was browsing the &lt;a href="http://www.digital-photography-school.com/"&gt;Digital Photography School&lt;/a&gt; Website, and I came across &lt;a

recently found a really cool website, called &lt;a href="http://www.befunky.com/"&gt;BeFunky.com &lt;/a&gt;, it's similar to picnik, but has alot more photo effects available, especially when you upgrade for $24.95 for the year. With the top photo I did some slight editing in picnik, but I experimented with the bottom two at BeFunky. Even though it's easy to just add a photo effect with these kind of websites, I feel like I'm kind of cheating a little, taking a shortcut, I would much prefer to master photoshop, which I'm slowly in the process of trying to do, then I think I will feel much more of an achievement after maybe editing a photo, adding a different effect etc.. when I know I've put my learnt skills into practice.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4hE9rd4HL0I/S87Cos2nWeI/AAAAAAAAAwk/KEbubjpr32A/s1600/bike.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462517402537777634" style="DISPLAY: block;

I've had CS3 for a while now, and have tried the odd tutorial, but became overwhelmed with the huge amount of tools photoshop has to offer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like the way this tutorial is broken down, into preschool - Getting started in photoshop, Kindergarten - Using palettes, first grade - photoshop's toolbox, and so on. Last night I started grade 2 :) (just like being back in school :D )which introduced 'Layers' I have dabbled a little with them before, but this really helped me understand alot more how they work, I can't wait to get started on grade 3! insha Allaah 'selection tools'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4106026802593730288-6781692629517106232?l=capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com/feeds/6781692629517106232/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com/2010/04/blooming-hyacinth-school-of-photoshop.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4106026802593730288/posts/default/6781692629517106232'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4106026802593730288/posts/default/6781692629517106232'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com/2010/04/blooming-hyacinth-school-of-photoshop.html' title='Blooming Hyacinth/ School of photoshop'/><author><name>Naimah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00835149968673235230</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4hE9rd4HL0I/TH23txXxRXI/AAAAAAAAAw8/vmnPTFKfWtE/S220/hand.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4hE9rd4HL0I/S7xzM9xGQoI/AAAAAAAAAvc/gOutjpEt8A8/s72-c/pink+flowers.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106026802593730288.post-4957371248256674278</id><published>2010-04-05T16:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-17T08:31:12.890-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Swings</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation that you ever had.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4hE9rd4HL0I/S7p2ijOP7yI/AAAAAAAAAvM/O5Wznr1RGQk/s1600/swings.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456804234455412514" style="DISPLAY: block;

I’ve largely focussed upon three elements of the ‘&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/learning-exposure-in-digital-photography/"&gt;&lt;em&gt;exposure triangle&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;‘ – &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/iso-settings/"&gt;&lt;em&gt;ISO&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/shutter-speed/"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Shutter Speed&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt; and Aperture. I’ve previously written about the first two and today would like to turn our attention to Aperture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Before I start with the explanations let me say this. If you can master aperture you put into your grasp real creative control over your camera. In my opinion – aperture is where a lot of the magic happens in photography and as we’ll see below, changes in it can mean the difference between one dimensional and multi dimensional shots.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;What is Aperture?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Put most simply – Aperture is ‘the size of the opening in the lens when a picture is taken.’&lt;br /&gt;When you hit the shutter release button of your camera a hole opens up that allows your cameras image sensor to catch a glimpse of the scene you’re wanting to capture. The aperture that you set impacts the size of that hole. The larger the hole the more light that gets in – the smaller the hole the less light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Aperture is measured in ‘f-stops’. You’ll often see them referred to here at Digital Photography School as f/number – for example f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6,f/8,f/22 etc. Moving from one f-stop to the next doubles or halves the size of the amount of opening in your lens (and the amount of light getting through). Keep in mind that a change in shutter speed from one stop to the next doubles or halves the amount of light that gets in also – this means if you increase one and decrease the other you let the same amount of light in – very handy to keep in mind). &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://digital-photography-school.com/aperture#respond"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Read more: &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4106026802593730288-2881958854433458356?l=capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com/feeds/2881958854433458356/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com/2010/03/introduction-to-aperture-in-digital.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4106026802593730288/posts/default/2881958854433458356'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4106026802593730288/posts/default/2881958854433458356'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://capturingthebeauty.blogspot.com/2010/03/introduction-to-aperture-in-digital.html' title='Introduction to Aperture in Digital Photography - Darren Rowse'/><author><name>Naimah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00835149968673235230</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4hE9rd4HL0I/TH23txXxRXI/AAAAAAAAAw8/vmnPTFKfWtE/S220/hand.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106026802593730288.post-3777343560972999576</id><published>2010-03-12T14:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-03-12T14:26:46.009-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Anthurium'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lady Love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pink'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='leaf'/><title type='text'>Anthurium - Lady Love</title><content type='html'>Well, here it is.....my first photo of 2010, as I mentioned in a previous post I've had alot of problems with uploading photos to the computer, I have not been able to pin point where the actual problem lies, it's very complex. So now I've got a new camera alhamdulillaah, another fuji film, but the s200 EXR. The same problem arose earlier when trying to upload this photo, but I somehow sorted it out alhamdulillaah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway......this pic is of the Anthurium plant, named Love Lady, I love the pink leaves, makes a change from green!

Shoot a Photo a Day&lt;br /&gt;No greater photographic progress can be seen than by a personal photo a day challenge.

We all experience periods of creative blocks when we get stuck and all our good ideas come to a halt. Inspiration seems to elude us.

align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Tuft of Flowers&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to turn the grass once after one&lt;br /&gt;Who mowed it in the dew before the sun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dew was gone that made his blade so keen&lt;br /&gt;Before I came to view the levelled scene.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I looked for him behind an isle of trees;&lt;br /&gt;I listened for his whetstone on the breeze.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But he had gone his way, the grass all mown,&lt;br /&gt;And I must be, as he had been,--alone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;`As all must be,' I said within my heart,&lt;br /&gt;`Whether they work together or apart.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But as I said it, swift there passed me by&lt;br /&gt;On noiseless wing a 'wildered butterfly,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seeking with memories grown dim o'er night&lt;br /&gt;Some resting flower of yesterday's delight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And once I marked his flight go round and round,&lt;br /&gt;As where some flower lay withering on the ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then he flew as far as eye could see,&lt;br /&gt;And then on tremulous wing came back to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought of questions that have no reply,&lt;br /&gt;And would have turned to toss the grass to dry;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But he turned first, and led my eye to look&lt;br /&gt;At a tall tuft of flowers beside a brook,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A leaping tongue of bloom the scythe had spared&lt;br /&gt;Beside a reedy brook the scythe had bared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I left my place to know them by their name,&lt;br /&gt;Finding them butterfly weed when I came.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mower in the dew had loved them thus,&lt;br /&gt;By leaving them to flourish, not for us,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nor yet to draw one thought of ours to him.&lt;br /&gt;But from sheer morning gladness at the brim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The butterfly and I had lit upon,&lt;br /&gt;Nevertheless, a message from the dawn,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That made me hear the wakening birds around,&lt;br /&gt;And hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And feel a spirit kindred to my own;&lt;br /&gt;So that henceforth I worked no more alone;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But glad with him, I worked as with his aid,&lt;br /&gt;And weary, sought at noon with him the shade;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And dreaming, as it were, held brotherly speech&lt;br /&gt;With one whose thought I had not hoped to reach.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;`Men work together,' I told him from the heart,&lt;br /&gt;`Whether they work together or apart.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Robert Frost.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
