This is a summary of the photos I posted for my 2011 365 Project from 9/18 through 9/24.

Sunday, 9/18 - This is a tree that I was actually standing behind to take a lot of my Austin sunrise shots, then I realized the interesting bark. So to bring out the bark and the background, I shot 3 exposures and processed with PhotoMatix (HDR). My husband says it reminds him of Treebeard from Lord of the Rings. I have to say I agree.

Monday, 9/19 - Taken at the Gulf Coast Bird Observatory during the Xtreme Hummingbird Xtravaganza. Some of the flowers that were blooming pretty that day.

Tuesday, 9/20 - Found these baby mushrooms in my front yard this morning. They are the result of the recent rains.

Wednesday, 9/21 - I was wanting to work with my make-shift light table, so I picked some clear red thumb tacks up while I was in Office Depot yesterday. I need to find more objects for my light table.

Thursday, 9/22 - I got down pretty low to get this. Hoping to get the white flowers in the distance too. Taken at the Gulf Coast Bird Observatory during the Xtreme Hummingbird Xtravaganza.

Friday, 9/23 - This is my nephew JR. I was able to watch him on the cheer squad last night at my hometown's JV football game. He is very talented at gymnastics, so he gets to put that talent to use. I am a very proud aunt :-)

Saturday, 9/24 - A bridge over Austin Town Lake. I thought the reflections looked cool.

Happy Shooting!
