Here is a big ole artificial tree downtown next to a temporary ice rink. I wandered over there during lunch one day to check it out and decided to take a shot with my small Nikon point and shoot. Don’t ask my why I tilted it like that. I’d have to tell you that I felt like it and that may strike some people as being a little cheeky. So don’t ask. I do promise you that I hadn’t been drinking though. Note the shadow of the tree to the left. I’m telling you that for a reason, so take note of it, please.
So then I went to the other side of the tree and using one of my plastic film cameras, the Lomography La Sardina I took another pic. Note that the shadow of the tree is to the right. Got it?
So, then I thought, “What can I do with this tree?” So I went and stood in the shadow of the tree and took a picture of the tree with my film camera so that the sun was behind the tree. Then, without advancing the film, I turned turned the camera ninety degrees and took a pic of some ornamental grass nearby. So I got a double exposure of the grass on the tree.
Just what you always wanted right, a brown tree. Boy, I can tell you can’t wait until you see my next invention. You have to admit that the sky in the first pic was pretty.
Okay, well check the link below and check out some Skywatch Photographs posted by people who actually know what they are doing.
I love that you have so much fun with the cameras. Your joy is infectious.
I totally agree with Gaelyn!! Your joy is infectious and it gets me out of the house with my camera in hand! Thank you!! Enjoy the remainder of your week!!

You’re so right, from the crème do la crème to rubbish:-) I do hope you had a lovely Christmas Day but, I believe, it’s all over for you – no Boxing Day for idiots to rush to the sales, spending those vouchers or exchanging awful gifts.
Never mind, we’ve had the shortest day so we’ll soon begin to see the daylight extending. We already have bulbs just showing themselves – can spring be far behind?
I didn’t proof-read – that should, of course, be crème DE la crème!!!!!
I agree with Gaelyn´s comment,Yogi!Enjoy still the christmas day with your family!
This blog have an awesome structure .This pictures and informations are really great.kusadasi day trips

Yogi, you are talented and creative. Pretty tree and a lovely blue sky! I hope you had a happy Christmas, enjoy the rest of the week!
Very creative but are you sure you didn’t have a little Christmas cheer? Haha You carry 2 or 3 cameras with you?
Beautiful blue sky in the first shots and fun how you played with your photography. Happy New Year ahead!
Very creative and funny!
Happy Holidays!
It’s fun to experiment, I like that tilted tree !
love that double exposure one, so creative. Happy Holidays! cheers.
Hi,Yogi. Nice captures and Very creative one. THanks for sharing.
You are hilarious! Nothing like a creative risk taker to get us thinking about the possibilities.
My daughter just ordered a Polaroid from Amazon–like it’s a new thing to have instant prints. All I can say is, I am glad I haven’t ditched my film cameras….
The skies are gorgeous!
uh huh…
You EXPECT us to believe you hadn’t been drinking when you went through all those contortions?

I love the way you have been playing and experimenting with tree and camera.
Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend.
An artificial outdoor tree? How horrible! I’d hate to be the one who has to dust off the cobwebs each and every December.
