The Camera and I hung out at the mall for a short while

[Mira]

I had the portrait lens on it, all wrong for these shots.


Yet the incongruity of the Christmas wreath and the blazing fall tree show up just fine




A stand of whatever that is was glistening on a sidewalk




This tree is all done. Put a fork in it.



And to her I said:" I like to photograph beautiful people, may I take your picture?"
Name: Brianna.

1. Great shots!

Sort of a vignette of your day :)

2. Very good!! I see you have a Gingko there too.

You really called it with her. Her face is well balanced from left to right. Her image can be cropped from the shoulders up. Her complexion is good enough to handle it.

That could be pampas grass, but I'm not sure.

Show up there early in the morning to catch the fall of leaves. You might have to go back several times, but it is worth it to see a yellow rain. Usually a frost spurs the fall.

4. OH WOW, fortuitous this came up now, about Gingkos.

If I can I'll check on it.

6. It will also get you outside with your camera.

3. pampas grass

We have a lot of it around here. Love the contrast on that one.

Your protrait of Brianna is lovely. Maybe today I'll try for some portrait shots. I'm not very good at them and need to work on them a lot. You make it look easy.

5. Thank you MzPip. We need to go shopping together.

I am so brazen.

7. OK, so I was driving on the freeway about 10 days ago...

... and saw a vanity plate -- Mz Pip -- so was that you?

8. What????

Someone stole my screen name for their car?? Just regular old numbers and letters for me.

No it was not me. :-(
