Poetic Shutterbug

I was strolling around the Botanical Gardens a couple of weeks ago and wanted to get this gorgeous shot of trees reflecting in the moon garden pond.  I was in a spot where I could not get near the pond so I zoomed in and snapped away.  While this shot is not what I had expected, I for some reason still liked the way it turned out.  It sort of reminds me of a Monet :D  This shot is straight out of the camera and was not tweaked at all. My two ?'s have to do with art and photography. 1.  Who is your favorite artist? 2.  Do you tweak your photos? I also would like to congratulate Icy, BC for winning my contest giveaway .  She chose a gorgeous plate by artist Sandra Kuck which is on the way to her along with two Sony Holland CD's and $20.   Thanks Icy :) S Click the above widget for more Thursday Two Questions meme fun.

I've been tagged by Icy over at Wandering Thoughts to play this game. I love these tags that include photos. While I don't have folders that I keep for my photos on my hard drive because they take up to much space I do have a few favorites that I do save in my pictures folder. The bulk I just upload to Shutterfly and keep them there. So, I went to my pic folder and got the sixth photo in my folder which is below. As you can see my cousin Elise is standing alongside our President, Barack Obama. He had a very small table at the Fillmore Jazz festival promoting his health care plan. He actually did not draw much attention were it not for the the busker playing the bongo drums right next to him - not to mention my cuz drawing a large crowd looking cool in those shades. He didn't say much yet that smile was all he needed for my photo shoot. Thanks Prez, for jazzing it up at our street festival :) Here are the rules: 1-- Go to your photo files…Select the 6th photo folder...
