I had a really cool blog post ready for you all today. I was typing it out after I wrote it out. While I was reading everything I typed I went to attach the image, the… GONE… All gone! My laptop battery went on me without any warning. Serves me right for not paying attention to the pop-up bubble warning! I’ll type it out later this week!
Have a Happy Easter Everyone!

At 3:35am this morning I lost my best pal due to kidney failure!
Lynx was a purebred Seal Lynx Point Siamese Cat who has gave me more then you can ever expect in a cats life. Lynx was a show cat that brought home numerous prizes such as “best in show” and “best in breed.
Asides all the training and prized Lynx was the welcoming committee when you came to my home. When you knock on the door he would be the first one there to say “hey, wassup… welcome, come right in”!
He was a continuous talker but a very good listener also. I already miss his voice – his meow’s. I am sure he’s doing better right now… no more suffering!
Lynx was my sunshine!
I miss you and I love you Lynx!
I refuse to say goodbye… so I’m going to say see ya later my friend!
Hugs and Kisses <3

Everyone seems to have their own technique and I’ve tried a few over the years but what the best way for me to get predictable fireworks photos is by using the following technique.
What you’ll need:
Camera with manual settings I prefer a digital SLR for complete control, but you can make this work with compact cameras with either a fireworks setting or manual override
Sturdy tripod I know many people say this, but if you want clear straight lines, a dependable, adjustable but sturdy tripod. You don’t want this slipping and shaking during your exposure
Remote Cable Release I prefer one with a lock and one at least 30 inches in length. You’ll use this to trip the shutter and hold it open for longer bursts
5×7 inch black non-reflective card To cover the lens and adjust your exposures
Flash Light To help you review your settings or possibley paint your foreground with light.
Water, Insect repellant and comfortable shoes You have to take care of yourself, right?
