Wind Blown

I read an article recently about how to enhance portrait photography....away from the same old, day in and day out, familiar poses. It talked about the 'wind effect' created with a fan...if in a studio.

So...it was a pretty windy day so I thought I would try my hand on catching the windy view. Utilizing the self timer. Of course, the wind didn't cooperate too much ....not wanting to alter it's blowing perspective when I WANTED IT.

I tried and this is all I came up with. I'll try again...on a day when the wind seems to be a bit stronger and a bit more consistent...if that is possible.

Self Portrait...of Sorts

So...today...we are off for a 3 day weekend.....north....just the two (rather 3) of us. Normally there are others up there with us and although I do enjoy the company and the socializing and laughing and adventures that go along with it all....it's nice just to have a real relax weekend with just the two of us also (sorry, Lex....I mean 3).
