A Mini-Look at Aperture

Dia duit (hello from the Gaelic Irish) friends, fellows, followers, family, and foreigners.
Here is a lovely orange:

The orange has nothing to do with today's topic :P 
I am here to show you the effects of aperture (app-er-cher) on photos. 

Low aperture (f/3.8)
High aperture (f/16)
You should take note that the higher the aperture number, the smaller the shutter opening becomes:
That's the only confusing part: remembering that small fact:)


All right! Any questions, comments, or concerns will be dealt with kindly addressed below.

He Arose!


Sparkles of a brand new snow, they remind me of the brand new beginning when Jesus Christ defeated death. His followers were without hope and just plain scared; when Jesus returned, He gave them hope and strength:)



Remember that guys, He arose.

Like Snow




   May the words of my mouth always glorify the One who gave me the ability to speak, may they bring Him honor among those who do not know Him, and may my thoughts remain uplifting and pure. Like snow.




"Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body." Proverbs 16:24



Oh, I have so many snow and frost pictures guys! These last two are my favorites:)
I have to work on my bokeh and focusing though...
Even though Tuesday was the first day of spring it doesn't feel like it yet! At my house, we still have several feet of snow!!! Seriously.
  So long, farewell!

My Favorite Irish Holiday

     (First of all, how awesome is this new design? Storyteller was great through all my indecisiveness and silly requests and such:) Shout-out to Storyteller for overcoming my fear of blog change!)


     
     So anyway, Happy Saint PATRICK'S Day! 
(Just got a new graphics editor and I love it! BTW, this is a rare moment, but I did not take this photo:( It is a super detailed HDR of the Chicago River dyed green for S.P. Day!)
     Yesterday I went around taking photos of anything green and then I used color selection to only include green. :P Here's the pictures:

Unfortunately, although I have seen their work everywhere (all my left socks are missing, as well as three of my pots of gold)  I was unable to catch a leprechaun with my camera. :( 





Ah Ireland, I would love to travel there, being part Irish:) I never have been to the Emerald Isle, so obviously I didn't take this either...  Someday I will!
