Mel posted a challenge of sorts on her blog today. Take the 8th photo from the 8th folder and see what it is. I wasn’t particularly excited by this image. It was taken on August 23, 2008 on a hike on part of the Finger Lakes Trail. I suppose I was interested in the texture of the image.
But two images down was one of my favorite photos of the day so I’ll post it too.
For this image I held my point and shoot down below the flower and shot up. I think I took three or four photos, but this is the only one I left in the folder.
Wow! I love your photos. The second is spectacular. What kind of camera do you use?
Pat, these photos were taken with a Canon Power Shot Digital Elph. It’s a tiny little camera that fits in my pocket. I also use a Canon Rebel Xsi, but I don’t often hike with it.
I have to go and check my folders – I’m dreading what I might find though!
Beautiful! I took the bait, too, and I’m doing my 8x8x on Tuesday.

love the texture and that angle on the flower – must try that with all the lovely apple blossom we have at the moment
That’s a great reminder to try out lots of different angles because it’s a beautiful shot.
I love both shots Karen – never really got into all the artsy photos (although I did take some) prior to Picture Spring. Now I’m really appreciating what people “see” through the lens.
I think both shots are great! The texture on the first photo is amazing. I am going to play along too 🙂
Wasn’t this a fun challenge, I’ve just posted my 8th in the 8th on my blog ;o). I love that second photo too and what a great angle to take it from!
I’m excited by the first shot – the texture is amazing! It would make a great background 🙂 I absolutely love the second photo though, thanks so much for sharing them both xx
Gorgeous photos – love the texture in the first and the second is lovely too. I’ve joined in the challenge and posted my 8th in the 8th too!
these photos are both great! I love the texture in the first photo. and the flower shot is awesome!
I * love* that flower, Karen!!!
Karen, this is how much I love that flower photo–it’s now my desktop background (hope that’s okay with you!)!
