I was playing around with my macro lens and the orbis ring; I was taking photos of another subject when my wine caught my attention. I wanted to see how the light would react with the liquid and the crystal. Today's photo is the result of that little experiment.
The loss of two amazing women in my life has inspired me to live life to the fullest. The past four years have been an adventure on learning what is important to me, what is trivial and that I need to follow my dreams because life is too short. I've learned to Follow My Gypsy Soul.

Nothing like snuggles, #project365
After a pretty busy weekend, I woke up Sunday not feeling very good. It was pretty much a day of meds, catching up on "Chuck" and snuggling with the pups. It's all I could handle.
The dogs love to snuggle, especially when I have a blanket. At one point, Mags decided she wanted to be on my shoulder. Truthfully, they do make me feel a little better.

Ascension + UFC + best friends= FUN, #project365
Mike and Wendy had us over for dinner and a night of gaming and UFC. We broke out the new ascension set and it wad pretty fun. The first picture s of Mike and Wendy, and our first game. Maggie hate being left out and is constantly at my side, begging to sit on my lap.
Sometimes, it's annoying. Sometimes, I think it's pretty cute.
Mission of Hope, #project365
Friday night, I had the privilege of playing with a great group of guys at the Hope Mission. We had an hour and a half set. It was pretty fun and the opportunity to provide worship was amazing. I even got to sing a couple of songs. Can't wait to do it again!

From Scary to Freaky, #project365
Continuing on the theme from yesterday, here is another one of those "mistake" shots of Maggie. While yesterday's photo makes me laugh, I actually think this one is pretty cool. I love how her eyes look all marbley.
Okay, I know I made up that word, but it fits!
Ohhh...Scary!, #project365
It's funny how you start out thinking you are going to take pictures of one subject, and then something happens like this one and it just makes you laugh.
I had setup my camera with my zoom/macro lens and my orbis. I had gotten the shots I thought I wanted and saw my Mags sitting so pretty. So I thought I would capture a couple shots; it's not like we really need more pictures of Maggie or Leo!
The orbis really took the red eye to extreme. This was one of the first shots. I was expecting that nice little ring catch light. I know technically, it's a mistake in the photo but it made me laugh.
Sometimes, you just never know what you are going to get.

My Leo, #project365
This is my Leo. The first photo shoot I did with him, he was a rock star. Many photo shoots later, I'm lucky if he sits up and looks at me. This is one of the few good shots while using my orbis that I got of him. still. I think he looks pretty cool.
I guess I need to find some more volunteers to be my model!
