Luau Kalamaku in Kauai

Sunday Post: Perspective: Best Luau Ever

June 5, 2013 by tchistorygal

Thank you Jake for this challenge to help me share my perspective of our luau experiences.  To learn how to enter your own posts about perspectives, visit Jake’s Sunday Post. From my perspective the luau we attended in Kauai on Friday, May 30, 2013 was the best we ever attended. The concierge at our Diamond Resort, The Point at Poipu, influenced our perspective when he told us LUAU KALAMAKU was the best luau we ever attended. We felt like expert luau […]

Sunday Post: Unforgettable

February 19, 2013 by tchistorygal

Unforgettable means never to be forgotten, remarkable in a way that cannot be forgotten such as place, events or great memories.  As much as I forget appointments, and names these are some experiences I won’t forget. I really thought parasailing was going to be much more thrilling frightening than it was.  I waited until the two little girls that were on the boat with us went first.  I figured if they could do it, I could.  V did  not want to […]

Sunday Post: On Going

February 12, 2013 by tchistorygal

I have an ongoing need to wait until someone else has posted their response to a challenge before I am ready to take the challenge.  Do I have an ongoing fear of being the first, or am I just blank on ideas.  You’ll never know – because I don’t!! We have an ongoing need to be concerned for the safety for those entrusted into our care. We have an ongoing need for vitamin D that comes from a little exposure […]

Focused Attention

Sunday Post: Focused Attention

January 31, 2013 by tchistorygal

It’s been a while since I focussed attention on any photo challenge, and I miss them. Jake says focused attention is the cognitive process of selectively concentrating on one aspect of the environment while ignoring other things. Attention has also been referred to as the allocation of processing resources. Attention also has variations amongst cultures. Voluntary attention develops in specific cultural and institutional contexts through engagement in cultural activities with more competent community. Photography has forced me to focus my attention of […]

SFW Christmas 2012005

Sunday Post: Christmas

December 23, 2012 by tchistorygal

Jake has done it again – a post to challenge my photographic abilities.  I haven’t been too successful with night pictures or inside pictures.  So here is my trial.  Thanks to Leanne Cole and Russel Ray Photos for the tutorials on Photoshop to spruce these up! Most of our Christmas ornaments stay packed in the boxes each year because one of us doesn’t like them, and because V likes simplicity.  I have to agree with him on that when I […]

SUNDAY POST : Concept

December 14, 2012 by tchistorygal

Concept is hard to visualize.  It can be anything and nothing all at the same time.  Without concepts, we can work, and play, but we can’t do it sustainably effectively or with passion.  Most of the time we think of concepts in terms of what is.  A dog is an animal with specific characteristics.  Addition is a concept of combining groups.  Liberty and freedom are concepts that is not so easily illustrated.  Which brings me to the point of my […]

Mama Kitty is peaceful

Sunday Post: Peaceful

December 3, 2012 by tchistorygal

I thought about the ocean, but sometimes it is NOT peaceful.  I considered farm animals, but they make a LOT of noise.  Then, I looked around for something at home where I feel most peaceful.  Who should be peacefully resting in my folder, but Mama Kitty? Granted Kalev is NOT peaceful.  Every morning she charges out to see Mama Kitty, her body twisting and writhing with excitement.  Amazingly Mama Kitty just stands waiting for her morning kiss from Kalev. Scardy could do […]

Sunday Post: Natural Resources

November 27, 2012 by tchistorygal

I’ve been hoping for a challenge in which I could post these photos of wind machines.  Thanks Jake.  Air is probably our most precious and abused natural resource in California Our EPA regulations for air quality are the most stringent in the United States.  Yet, for all it’s poor quality from times and in places, air can still be harnessed and used to produce another clean energy – electricity. I read this morning on Pairodox Farm’s blog that my home […]

The Space Needle still towers over Seattle skyscrapers to reign king.

Sunday Post: Architecture

November 23, 2012 by tchistorygal

If you haven’t been to http://jakesprinters.wordpress.com/2012/11/17/sunday-post-architecture/#comments , and you like photography, and you need ideas for a short posts, Jake is your guy.  I love this because even as amateur photographers everyone usually has tons of pictures that sit unseen by anyone but a file folder.  This is a reason to open up those dusty folders, and pick out our best work. Seattle came to its own during the 1962 Worlds Fair, and even today, 50 years later, the Space […]

Good friend surrounded by good art enveloped in a surrounding of peace

Sunday Post: Surroundings

November 14, 2012 by tchistorygal

This challenge seems particularly vague to me.  Everything surrounds everything.  Nothing exists in a vacuum except the dirt and dog hairs from my carpet.  We can choose to surround ourselves with wonderful music, (or noise), beauty, good weather. and pleasant people. Or we can be forced into uncomfortable surroundings out of our control, or we can accidentally fall into uncomfortable surroundings.  Surrounds also provide good fodder for complaining, as in my internet surroundings this past two weeks.  I think I’ll […]

SUNDAY POST : Wonderful

November 5, 2012 by tchistorygal

I would really love to learn to do animation, however, for now, that skill is just going to be left for the future. I thought this was a wonderful picture of a wonderful sunrise that my husband snapped.  What I have learned to do with Photoshop I think also borders on superbly wonderful.  Let me share them with you as well. This first layer played with brightness and contrast. This next layer builds on the last layer by remodeling the […]
