February 1, Day 1

For my first day, I went for something more simple.  I decided to take a picture of our balcony table decoration.  I wanted to have two pictures - one with the candle holder in focus and one with the background in focus.  I set to do this earlier in the day, but, as is common with our camera, the battery was dead.  After charging it and being gone all day I took the pictures just before sunset and love the way they turned out.  I had to turn of the flash to capture the images I wanted or it would have looked like it was night time.

My favorite, with the background in focus:

With the candle holder in focus.  I think the focus was hard with the glass;  gives me something to work on my manual focus techniques.  Regrettably I did not have as much time to manual focus as I should have liked.


Taken before the other two, when I left the flash on.
