Focusing in, not out.

Little Tori, sweet as can be :)

 

Vintage: You can create a vintage feel by processing the shot to have that vintage look – adjust color and saturation, tone down contrast, add light bleed, water spots, etc.

The Birds

Topic: Birds

We went to Wildlife Prairie Park the other day and I thought "Yeah" there I can get some cool bird pictures. Unfortunately there was a lot of reconstruction going on and it seemed the animals were a bit scarce. We finally found the birds in the Snake Hut, lol!

The owls and the vultures were in the classroom they use for presentations. I took this picture through a glass door. The room was dark, so I got mostly dark grainy pictures. I tweaked this one a bit and decided I liked it. Owls are such amazing creatures!!

Topic: Birds

The Peoria Heights Tower. You can go up in a glass elevator and see all of Peoria and beyond! On the tower is a Woodpecker, or a Peckerwood. That is what this adorable 3 year old girl told me it was, a Peckerwood. She was just too darn cute to tell her otherwise!
