LadyKatesPhotography > March 27 This explains my being M.I.A. ! This is where I just spent 10 wonderful days of R & R ! My husband and I had plans to leave two days after the Raul Malo concert. I chose to leave the laptop at home, and stay away from internet availability; today is the first day I've been near my computer for quite awhile now. I must admit that I've missed this DP community! I've missed all of the incredible photography presented by you very talented and creative S'Muggers, and missed updates on many of you!! We certainly enjoyed our time away together in such a beautiful Paradise. Had more clouds, winds and rain than sun, but that actually was condusive to more R & R. We stayed the first half of our time on the North side, past Hanalei, at Kepuhi Point, with the above pictured Kanaha Beach as part of our front yard! We spent the second half on the South side, at Poipu. The above pictured Shipwreck Beach was an area just south of us. We did manage to get around quite a bit, went on a couple of awesome--kick-ass--hikes and OMG......the photos I have to sort through and choose from!! I'll probably be posting quite a few of them! I highly commend my husband for being so very patient with me and my passion for photos! He's going to use one of them on his new business cards, so I was on at least one particular mission! The Shipwreck Beach image is a three-shot pano and Kanaha Beach is a two shot pano.

LadyKatesPhotography > October 26 Meet 'Beatrice and Butthead'! Here's my version of a 'punkin' shot' ! A couple of years ago, at the beginning of October, I had just recently seen a photo similar to this! LMAO, I decided to create something like that in our yard....unbenounced to my husband! It took me a couple of days to round up all that I would need; gathering from a thrift store, the Feed & Grain (for bale of hay) and of course, a Pumpkin Patch! After figuring out the how-to's of the assembly, I chose the next day to build my new buddies! I patiently waited until my husband left for work, then started taking all the needed project pieces to the 'just perfect' location on the side of our driveway. It was really funny when our neighbor pulled in, as I was about 3/4 done! He actually came over and asked the "What the *&$% are you up to now!?!?" So, gentlemen, just imagine: I situated these cuties so that the headlights of my husband's car would shine right on them as he made the final curve up the driveway that night!! We certainly shared some good laughs during dinner! We left them there until early November! FYI: Puts a whole different twist on going pumpkin shoppin'!! I was by myself when I went to the Pumpkin Patch. Probably a good thing! I caught myself ROFLMAO !!
LadyKatesPhotography > June 18 I met up with my siblings for dinner and enjoyed a pleasant evening together. My sister was telling us of the extremely abnormal 106 degree temp today in Shell Beach, CA, and how miserable her animals seemed. Reminded me of this image of her 'Shaddy', which I took a while ago. She IS gorgeous, but....let me tell you, this is a cat with a real bitchy attitute!! P.S. 'Our' Gladiola was not at all happy last evening or today during our heat wave. Hopefully it will be revived a bit by morning!
LadyKatesPhotography > April 18 This morning I went into the wonderful little art store here in town. You can learn more about the shop here: Our town's cool little art shop The effervescent, talented owner was in the beginning stages of a painting of some cruiser bicycles. As I turned to leave, this beauty was parked inside by the door; pleading to be the model for my DP for today!! Thanks, Bobbi ! You are a true gift for the soul! I had several images I liked from this bike session, so I've included another one here: Contender gallery
LadyKatesPhotography > September 15 Lil' Rhett, looking for Lil' Scarlett! I really enjoyed my Hummingbirds this evening!! Mr. Rhett here was a very willing model; I had a hard time choosing which poses to use as my DP, and another to include in my other DP gallery. There is a close-up portrait of Rhett in my Contender gallery! Some of the other shots will be included in my Hummingbird gallery. I might not get to do that tonight; this is one of the few--and certainly the longest period of time I have been able to access the internet since I posted yesterday's DP.
LadyKatesPhotography > August 31 KurtPreston....This one is for you!! On August 6, I spent the afternoon lounging, basking, swimming, exploring and creating at a beach just south of Kona, on the Big Island of Hawaii. This awesome afternoon was shared with my son, Evan, my daughter, Kamryn and several of our friends who are from our hometown area of the California Central Coast; now residents of Hawaii! We planned to head out for our 2 1/2 hr. drive across the island for Hilo, after we experienced the sunset!! I was giggling as I began taking some shots of our friend here....thinking of you, and 'your SmugMug'!!
