Fridayyy

August 14, 2009 – 10:47 pm

Lady_Dog_ParkTGIF! Yes, I sure do love saying that. I say that about every Friday. Just another saying of mine that I can not resist. By the way, I dislike Michael Vick. Wow, that was random. Yes, I am a very random person at times. Michael Vick is on my dislike list. I have never heard of him before i started hearing all about the dog fighting he was involved with. Dog fighting is wrong in my opinion. I do not care if you want to argue with me because you can not change my mind about that. It is cruel and painful. Not just the fighting but also the conditions these poor dogs have to live in. Okay, I am done ranting.

So anyways, we came up to the cabin today. It is lovely weather here and suppose to be great this weekend which means I can swim in the lake. It will be lots of fun. I brought up my camcorder to record lots of videos. Today I recorded some so check out my youtube. There are some of my dogs and some cats and kittens. Also, I recorded a video of what I ate for dinner. It was a yummy dinner with lots and lots and lots of protein. Hehe. Here is the vid.

Thats that video, but I would also like to share one other video with you all of two kittens near my cabin playing. These two are so adorable. Very spunky little kittens. I hope you enjoy it.

I hope you enjoyed those two videos. I will be recording lots more over time. Maybe, I will start sharing a video with you all with my posts. As for this photo it is of Lady. It was taken a while ago at the dog park in my town. She looks so great and happy in this photo. The light was wonderful. I sure love this photograph of her. What do you all think of it?

Well, hope you all are having a good Friday and just know the weekend is in a few hours. Also, hope you all have some good things planned this weekend and if you do not than enjoy it as it comes. I am going to relax and listen to some music while surfing the net. Peace.

Fun Size and Friend

August 13, 2009 – 9:31 pm

handsWhat’s fun size? That is my nickname because I am very short. Only about five feet tall. So, people started to call me that and I think it fits me well. I may be small but I am big in the soul, mind and heart. Do not let my size fool you.

feetToday my friend and I hung outside for awhile. We had fun chit chatting and just hanging out. We had a good time taking lots of photos of each other and stuff around us. As you can see he is much taller than me. Well, really anyone is taller than me but he is around six feet tall. I look small next to him. I am fun size!

When I came inside I was thinking about what I should do without my Nikon camera. I figured it out. I decided I will record lots and lots of videos of all sorts of things. Over the next few days I will be recording a lot. I did some taping today. There are eleven new videos of my dogs on my Youtube channel. Yes, all of the new videos are of my three dogs. Crazy dog gal here. Check them out. Comment and rate please. Thanks.

So what do you think of the two photos? I thought they were pretty cool and came out nicely for a camera phone. But that is why I got the Samsung Sway was for the good reviews about the camera. The battery life may suck but the camera is a plus. Hope you all had a nice day also. I will talk to you all soon. Peace.

Wetland Wednesday

August 12, 2009 – 9:54 pm

Crane_Bronx_ZooIts been rainy here all day. Rain rain rain! Geez. Please rain go away for a few weeks and come back another time. I want the shining hot sun so I can feel like it is summer and I can be outside more. I had a sinus headache today but its going away. Woohoo!

Did you all hear the news? The sad sad news? Brooks & Dunn are going to go their seperate ways after a 2010 tour. They have been together since 1990 but they decided it was time to end their duo. Brooks & Dunn, I will keep you in my ears and never forget one of the best country duo’s out there.

Okay, my camera situation…I do not feel like talking about the whole story. Just that its stil going to be a little while before I get my camera back. I will survive. I will find other things to do. Maybe, I will write more. Maybe I should share some of my poetry with  you all.

I took this photo a long time ago. It was freshman year in highschool. My biology class went to the Bronx Zoo. I took a few photos there of the great animals. This was one of the cranes. I thought this photo came out pretty nicely. Especially, since I was using a canon point and shoot. That was my first digital camera until that broke and I got my nikon d40. So, what do you think of the shot?

Well, I am going to stay up a little. I need some late nights this summer before I have school and start passing out early. I will be up for awhile surfing the net, listening to some good music and talking to homies. So stay safe and happy. Peace.

Lady Love

August 11, 2009 – 9:18 pm

Lady_the_beauty_Anna_ZiskIt has been another hot day in New Jersey. Been in the basement most of the day where its cooler than my room. Plus, my mom’s computer is down here so I use it mainly for music and my laptop for my other computer programs. It keeps things moving at a nice speed.

Oh, good news. I started my two blogs I have been telling you I was going to start but kept putting it off. So now I have Social Tech Anna and Dog Dog Doggie running. They are just started but I will get them moving soon. If you have no looked at them yet please do. They soon will be two of the coolest blogs out there just like this one. Yea, you all know this is one of the best.

It is Lady love! Loooook! She is such a sweet faced dog. Just sitting there being patient while I take her photo a hundred times. This was taken awhile ago but one of my favorites. What do you think of this photo of Lady love?

It has been a good day. Maybe I did not do a lot but thats okay. I like my lazy days at times. I would be doing some photography if those idiots gave my nikon back! I swear I am going to send Oliver in there and have him put his smelly poop all over and then see what happens. They will never delay to give my camera back ever again. Well, I am going to listen to music, talk to peeps and just relax. Peace.

Fly Seagull Fly

August 10, 2009 – 11:10 pm

Flying_Seagull_by_Anna_ZiskIt was sure hot here in New Jersey but with sun shining all around. It actually felt like summer time. It would of been a perfect day to swim with the fishes at the lake if I was there. I will definately go swimming this weekend when we are up there if it is nice weather.

So, my lovely mother of mine took my cracked screen laptop to the mac store today and I did not think I would get it back for a few days. When she got home I saw my white laptop her her arms. I was so suprised. Sadly, it is not fixed. It costs around seven hundred dollars to just fix the screen. So, instead my wonderful mother said we can go look at pc laptops and get one. She is the best single mom in the world. Oh, you want her? Too bad she is mine! Go get your own mommy. I love you mom! *kiss*

Some sad news. I still do not have my camera. I do not know when I will get my d40 back from them. These people seriously need to get it back and fix it so I can have it back in my small hands. How is this photographer gal suppose to practice and show off my photos to the world if I cant shoot them? Huh? Well, if I do not get it back in a week I might just have to go to the store and starting bitching. I will become their biggest hell. This little angel will become a big devil if I do not get my toy back soon.

Look. I see a bird! Its its a seagull. It is not a plane or superman. It is a seagull! Do you like the photo? I took it a long time ago when I went to the beach. It came out pretty clear. One of the best bird photos I have. Like my copyright stamp? I made it today for my photography. Anna is going pro.

I hope you all had a nice Monday. Hopefully, everyone stayed nice and cool. I will talk to you all soon. Peace.

Rock the Net

August 9, 2009 – 10:59 pm

Staring_At_LadyI was cleaning up my room a little bit today and I came across my video camera. Yes, that video camera that has not been used in a few weeks. My poor Youtube channel with no new videos to share. I need to make more videos to share with y’all. Some crazy, wacky, fun, unique videos of me. Also, upload some videos of my pooches being goofy and cute. I have some video ideas in my head that I just need to stop freezing up and just make them. So if you have any video ideas you can share them with me.

Oh, also I am definately going to start my Social Tech Anna blog and my Dog Dog Doggie blog this week. I need to get those two blogs moving. Before I know it I will be wanting to start another one which will have to be added to the list of blogs that will never be started. The list of some day. My name is procrastination and I am proud of it.

One other thing. My laptop is going in tomorrow to get some repair so I will be without it for a few days. Noooo! But not fear I will be able to use my moms computer. So, I am all ready to continue my internet life with my great internet friends. Rockin the internet is my thang. Lets rock it all together. Who’s with me???

Awww, look! Its a photo of me and Lady having a staring contest. I took this a long time ago but it just so expressive. It is not the clearest photo but I still like it. Lady was fighting with me and so I told her we will settle this with a staring contest. You know who won? Me. That Lady turned her head and backed down. Ha! Miss toughy gave up. What a Lady! Still love her so much. She is the sneak of the family. So what do you think of the photo? Like? Dislike? Like Lady? Like Me? Like neither of us?

Alrighty, time to close this daily post up. I did not find any good photography content to post on my photoblog today but I will look around tonight and tomorrow and see what I can share with you all. Stay rockin. Peace.

Fun Fun Saturday

August 8, 2009 – 10:57 pm

Pee_Ka_Boo_I_Can_See_YouHello world and every creature on it. How are you all doing today? My day was great. It was fun. My mom and I went on a little road trip today to Lambertville, New Jersey and New Hope, Pennsylvania. When we first got to Lambertville we went to their usual flea market which is always cool because I love seeing all sorts of stuff that I could buy. I did not buy anything this time but my mom bought an Italian pitcher. After that we went to the town of Lambertville and walked around there and ate Brunch. Then we walked over the bridge to New Hope and walked around more which is a lovely town. Been there a few times and just nice stores. We then headed to an art gallery that my mom’s friend was in. As we were walking there we stopped to watch at least a hundred motorcycles ride past us. It was awesome. This motorcycle chick loved that. Saw lots of motorcycles but Harley’s are my favorite. Harley gal forever. So after all that walking around our feet were so tired when we got back to the car but it was lots of fun. Saw lots of interesting people and cute dogs. I wish I had my camera to capture some of the lovely architecture and colors of the two towns. It is okay at least I had a nice mother daughter day.

The photo I decided to use for today is a self portrait of me. I took this photo awhile ago but I think its a pretty nice one. It was on a day I felt like trying different creative ways to make a self portrait more interesting. I used the front door to divide the photo and make it more unique. This photo came out pretty good in my opinion. What do you think of it?

Well, I do hope you all had a nice Saturday also. I am now going to rest my tired feet. So, I will listen to music, surf the big open web and talk to some peeps. Stay happy and healthy. Peace.

Smile Its Friday!

August 7, 2009 – 9:06 pm

LadyHello everyone. Be happy and smile. Its Friday! Today the weather has been wonderful. Clear with just little clouds passing by. Not too hot and with a nice breeze. It was great. I took my bicycle out and road it around. It was so nice I just had to get out and enjoy it before the weather changes to bad again. I am in a good good good mood today. Nice weather always makes me happy and in a positive mood. I did all my chores for the day, did some work on the internet and listened to music all day long. I love music so much. Every mood and emotion is expressed through one song or another. Such great way to express yourself. Alright, I am done drooling about my love for music. Wanna know what I am currently listening to? Well check out my blip.fm. That gives me another blog idea. A music blog filled with all the music I listen to, like and music news. Well, I will see. Already have a list of blogs I need to start.

Anyways, I still do not have my camera back yet but still was able to capture a great picture of the Lady. She is such a beauty and so photogenic even with a camera phone. I love just picking her up and carrying her around as if she was a little dog. She weighs around thirty five pounds. She is not that big but has a big stomach. She will eat and steal anything that smells good and she is not suppose to have. Lady will do anything for food. I really should record more videos of my dogs doing tricks and put them on youtube to share with you all.

Well, I hope you all had a wonderful day and enjoyed it atleast a little bit. Hopefully, you have plans this weekend. I will see what I am going to do. A day at a time is how I live. I am going to surf the net some more and blast some music. Talk to you all soon. TGIF. Peace.

John Deere HDR

August 7, 2009 – 6:36 pm

John_Deere_HDRAs I mentioned in the last post I am going to start including more different photography content besides just my photography everyday. Going to add more variety of posts to this photoblog of mine. Do not worry though I will still do my personal daily photoblog post of a photo I have taken and how my day was. Lets get started. Lets make this blog rock even more!

John Deere is a well known by millions of people throughout the world. It seems like in every neighborhood you go to their is at least one person who is a John Deere fan. I am a fan myself. Just always been a John Deere gal. I do not use any of their equipment but it must be the country girl inside of me that attracts me to them. Just so country. A lot of people use small John Deere lawn mowers in cities too. So they are really everywhere. You can not hide from John Deere.

I came across these great HDR (High Dynamic Range Imaging) photos at this wonderful post, John Deere HDR Gallery a little while ago and just fell in love with these amazing photos. You go through them and you just have to say wow and look at them a few times. These photos gives you the feeling of a John Deere and maybe it will make you want one. If you already have one maybe it will make you want another one. I want one. Well, really I want a hundred of them. Lets all escape to the country and ride John Deere tractors all day all night long. John Deere you rock!

Click on the above photo to see the rest of the John Deere photos there are.
