DailyPhotos > irishmurr  > Photography > Daily Photos (Jan. - June, 2009)
I have a Canon Rebel XT and a EF 28-135mm lens, a EF 75-300mm lens and a EFS 60mm Macro lens (all Canon). I've never really done any pp, but got Photoshop Elements last year and am slowly learning to do some post processing.

I began posting on the daily photos community two years ago and hope that making this effort on a daily basis has helped to improve my photography skills -- but realize that I still have a long way to go! Any suggestions for improvement are greatly appreciated.

If anyone would like to contact me, my e-mail is irishmurr57@yahoo.com.

irishmurr > There's nothing like spending a summer evening outside listening to some sax. (June 29, 2009) "Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." ~~ Berthold Auerbach
irishmurr > Smugmuggers Get-Together Live near scenic Cleveland, Ohio? Traveling this way at the end of July? If so, plan on joining us! A group of us are getting together on Sunday, July 26th at 1:00 p.m. in downtown Cleveland. We'll do a little walking tour of the city, snap a few photos, and then grab a bite to eat. Spouses and/or significant others are definitely included, because you know P.A. Larry will be there. I think I've sent e-mails to everyone in the area and we have quite a group planning on attending. In addition, we have one out-of-town smugger who might be able to join us since she'll be passing through during a trip to Michigan. Sounds like we're going to have a fun afternoon and if you'd like to join us, please feel free to e-mail me at irishmurr57@yahoo.com. We'd love to have you join us! (June 28, 2009) "If the whole world moved to their favorite vacation spots, then the whole world would live in Hawaii and Italy and Cleveland." ~~ Floyd, 30 Rock
irishmurr > What happens in Parma, stays in Parma. Girls night out, for a bachelorette party no less. That's all I'm saying ..... :-) (June 28, 2009) "I don't know a lot about politics, but I can recognise a good party man when I see one.” ~~ Mae West And I want to thank you all for the comments about my portrait yesterday. You were much, much too kind -- but I do appreciate your support. So, thank you!
irishmurr > Here's Isaac again, this time with his Mom -- who wanted a few photos of the two of them before the newest baby arrives in a few weeks. I told her I'm not a portrait photographer but that I'd give it my best shot. You're seeing Isaac again because I am not taking any more photos until I get caught up with the ones I took last weekend!!! Another weekend is here .... do any of you really believe that's going to happen? :-) Have a great one! (June 26, 2009) "When you photograph people in colour you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in B&W, you photograph their souls!" ~~ Ted Grant
irishmurr > Today P. A. Larry and I took a break from the hustle and bustle of life. (June 25, 2009) "To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides." ~~ David Viscott
irishmurr > Some of you know my sister, Debby, from Facebook and now you get to meet her pride and joy -- her grandson Isaac. (June 24, 2009) "Q:'You don't spoil your grandchildren do you? A:'Not this morning, I haven't seen them yet.'” ~~ Felix Sabates
irishmurr > Johnny takes his bubble blowing very seriously. (June 23, 2009) "When was the last time you spent a quiet moment just doing nothing - just sitting and looking at the sea, or watching the wind blowing the tree limbs, or waves rippling on a pond, a flickering candle or children playing in the park?” ~~ Ralph Marston
irishmurr > Sunday was both Father's Day and the first day of summer. I already gave you a Father's Day shot, so today I'm giving you a slice o' summer. (June 22, 2009) “Summer is the time when one sheds one's tensions with one's clothes, and the right kind of day is jeweled balm for the battered spirit. A few of those days and you can become drunk with the belief that all's right with the world.” ~~ Ada Louise Huxtable
irishmurr > It was a wonderful Father's Day around our house! (June 21, 2009) "It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons." ~~ Johann Schiller Anyone interested in seeing what I have to go through to get a group family photo, click here. :-)
irishmurr > A lovely ending to a lovely day. I was going to attempt to clone out those wires, but I'm toooooo tired. On Sunday we'll have five fathers -- three of whom are grandfathers -- at our house to celebrate their big day. So, it'll be another busy day around here -- I'll catch up with you all soon. To all the Dads out there: Happy Father's Day! (June 21, 2009) "Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meanings can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart.” ~~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
irishmurr > Maeve's great-grandma bought her this outfit when we visited her in Tennessee, and has been waiting patiently for a photo of her wearing it to show up on her digital frame.. So, Meme, this one's for you! (June 19, 2009) "If your baby is "beautiful and perfect, never cries or fusses, sleeps on schedule and burps on demand, an angel all the time," you're the grandma." ~~ Teresa Bloomingdale
irishmurr > Thank You Today I didn't have time to check in on all your wonderful photos until late, and really only had time to take a few snapshots with the point and shoot ... and was feeling pretty discouraged about my ability to keep up with the dailies. My creativity -- which isn't much to begin with -- is defintely suffering from my lack of time. But then, when I did have a few moments, I sat and checked out your photos and read the comments so many of you had left for me, as well as others ... and I just wanted to say thank you. I felt better after having spent a little time here. You're definitely an inspiration, and such a joy to know. This is one wonderful bunch of people. (June 18, 2009) "I feel a very unusual sensation - if it is not indigestion, I think it must be gratitude." ~~ Benjamin Disraeli
irishmurr > Sisters Our next-door neighbors, Ashley and Ava, had their dance recital this evening. We took some nice shots of the girls all dressed up, but then let them have a little fun for the camera. (June 17, 2009) "A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost." ~~ Marion C. Garretty
irishmurr > Just another Maeve shot. It was a busy, busy, busy day -- didn't have any time to check out the dailies -- will do that as soon as I can! (June 16, 2009) "Yesterday is a canceled check; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have - so spend it wisely." ~~ Kay Lyons
irishmurr > Check out the new pool chair the hubster got for me. It's called The Martinque and sits up, reclines and has coolers built into the arms! Ahhhhhhhh, I'm definitely ready for some pool time. (June 15, 2009) "No matter how much pressure you feel at work, if you could find ways to relax for at least five minutes every hour, you'd be more productive." ~~ Dr. Joyce Brothers
