Life As I See It-Day 2

Erin-The Entertainment at Studio 103. I am also photographing her wedding this summer...I can't wait!!!
Danielle had to smoke BEFORE she did my nails...hmmmmm. Danielle and I have been friends for over 20 years

Bernice's beautiful home...she totally restored it. I drive by frequently to steal decorating ideas!

My absolute favorite restaurant. Reminds me of Cheers...but no beer!!! My niece, Kayla works here too and we are very tight with our regular server, Stacey.

101 Grand River Rd. Brighton, Michigan

My current fave dish at Lil Chef...Jimmy's Tuna Casserole. YES, those ARE potato chips on top...yummmmmmmmmm.....

Night traffic with slow shutter speed. This would be so much cooler in Detroit, New York or LA, but since this is Life As I See It, it's Brighton, Michigan....

Neighbor kids playing night hockey

I really love the lighting on this one.

Cool action shot

Love this shot of the girl watching the game

I think it's cool how you can see their breath

Day 2

Today I learned how cool it is to have your tri-pod on you. I was able to take some pics that I would have never been able to take without my tri-pod. For years I have driven by a church on Grand River in Brighton and thought how cool it would be to take pics of the Nativity Scene in front of the church, but never had my tri-pod so never took the pics. I also always see the neighborhood boys playing hockey in the backyard pond of a neighbor's home and thought how cool it would be to take pics of that too. As part of the project, I have to carry my camera and tri-pod with me wherever I go, so I was able to take those pics. It was 12 degrees out though, so that sucked. Also, I went to my friend Danielle's salon (Studio 103 in Howell, Michigan, off of M-59) and got my nails done. I tried to get pics of the Barista making my coffee at a certain coffee house on M-59, by Kroger, but he told me I could not take any pics...I will not go back (I wonder how many places I will boycott after this project is over?) Oh well...Here are todays pics....
