    The Misadventures with My First Camera

    Picture this – a bright-eyed teenager, armed with a shiny new digital camera, sets out to document the world like never before. That was me several years ago, and to say my journey was a whirlwind romance filled with picturesque misadventures would be an understatement.  My first expedition into the wild, armed with my camera, culminated in what I would later term the “Great Lakeside Incident.” There I was, trying to capture a serene sunset, when my camera slipped, executed a perfect somersault, and splashed into the lake. But fear not, dear readers, for this was just the beginning! Unforgettable Misadventures As I began to understand the origin of cameras…

  • Photo’s On Canvas! My FAVORITE Way To Decorate

    If you know me via the Internet or in real life, you KNOW I love taking pictures.  I love to decorate with my photographs on canvas.  I would say 99% of the art in my home consists of photos I’ve taken. There is Idaho and of course family photos. If you follow me on Instagram (no?? Why not? I’m funny! But, mostly my view is spectacular! AND there’s a DOG!!) I’ve taken so many photos from my deck that over looks Lake Ponderay. This view! I STILL can’t believe I live here!  No matter how many pictures I take of this view each one is different. Then the wildlife! Oh…

  • Trail Cam Friday December 4th #wildlifephotography

    Yeah, the camera batteries died and the date is wrong on all of these. Next Friday should have correct day and time. Gesh! If it isn’t one thing it’s a million others. Most of these are picture in the dark because it gets DARK AT 3:30 in the AFTERNOON!!! WhatTHE?!?! I’m really sad that my wild bears haven’t been by in over 2 weeks. Maybe next weeks Trail Cam Friday.  

  • Trail Cam Friday November 27th

    I know I haven’t posted many Trail Cam Friday’s lately, but things in our yard had been pretty boring. This past week though we’ve had a couple of beautiful bucks!  You know I’m hoping for those shed’s (antlers) to drop by the house for me, come spring!! Aren’t they so handsome?? Want to check out additional trail cam pictures? You can search trail cam (It’s on the left under “Whatcha Lookin’ For?”  Or start here for some more of my wildlife photos.

    What’s On The Trail Cam Friday!

    Diane, you pointed out there hasn’t been much to comment on lately. Let’s just call it L-A-Z-Y!! So, I here by designate Fridays as “what’s on the trail cam!” So, after going through 3000 (yeah, you read that correctly 3000) photos I found a few that are post-worthy. I also realized that the batteries must be low because all I have are night photo’s. We get constant traffic by this trail cam. It’s directly on the side of my craft room. I never get tired of the visitors. Here is what we got this week! Here are a few more trail-cam photos

    TriVision Clever Dog Security Cam

    I love being able to watch the wildlife outside my door. I have trail cams set up around different areas outside but when the weather is nasty it’s REALLY nice to just look on my phone and check to see what’s outside. The TriVision Cam is exactly what I have been looking for. Y’all know I am still trying for a daytime picture of my moose! However, they are pretty stubborn and only come around at night. This camera is very cool!!  First up, it’s small!! It doesn’t even look like a security camera! Less than 4″ tall and only weighs 4 OUNCES!!  Yup, that’s how little this is!! It…
