A ray of sunshine

This is up on a wall at the Metro Salon downtown St. Charles. If you want to feel pampered and special this is the place to go.

Learned something new tonight

I have always felt I knew a little bit about copyright law. Working in a photo lab does tend to give you some clue. However, as a photography hobbiest you don't always think in terms of the subject that you are photographing being copyrighted. I had pictures that I had taken of the "Cow Parade" cows in New Town up here on the blog. Tonight I came across an article talking about copyrights of art work such as the cows. It was one of those D'oh moments. So the pictures I had posted here had to come down. ::sigh:: and I was so proud of them too....

Pictures of New Town

Some of the beautiful house in New Town. Okay, when I win the lottery I'll give some serious thought to moving out here!
A view of some of the rowhouses in New Town
More row houses. Picture taken from across the green space in front of these homes.

Pictures taken at the gold fish pond in New Town

The Waterfall

This turned out much better than I expected. It's not like you can say "Hold still I want to take your picture" ....

Daylillies

After an early luncheon at the Boathouse in Forest Park, which I can highly recomend as a place to eat if you are in St. Louis, I took the afternoon and played with the new camera. There would have been pictures of the Boathouse, the lake and the ducks as well as the friends I was with if my old camera, which I took because it is small, hadn't decided to shoot craps. Oh well, then next time the new camera goes with me!
