Thursday's Through The Lense - The Month of July

There haven't been many pictures taken this month. I opted to not do the Photo A Day Challenge, hosted by FatMumSlim this month. The main reason is because I was 8 days in when I realized I'd not done any and I didn't feel like trying to play catch up. But I'm planning to join in for August. Here's the list. I haven't decided yet, but I may post my weekly pictures here. Otherwise, if you have Instagram, you can follow me and see my pictures there ringsgal.

On to this week's pictures. Here's a review of some of my better pictures from the month of July:

 A bridge along the drive from Reno to Carson City

View from my hotel in Carson City (setting in my rental to take the picture)

 One of the buildings in Virginia City, NV (edited with Snapseed app on iPhone)

 Message on the balloons from the kids at the Boys & Girls Club 

The balloons released

 My husband fighting with his little brother and sister over the remote

 My first Angels Game!

Not bad seats...too bad they lost!

Enjoy!

Thursday's Through The Lense - June's Favorites

Here's a look back at some of my favorite photos from June.

 We finally made it back to Disneyland & California Adventure. I got some new ears!  

 Ah...home away from home! I love putting our passes to use!

 The Lego Store in Downtown Disney got some updated Lego "Statues" that are more in tune with where they're located:  Prince Phillip fighting Maleficent in dragon form (from Sleeping Beauty).

 Belle & Beast 

 We found Beast's Library in California Adventure. We each did a little cheesy quiz. Turns out Mr S is most like Buzz Lightyear.

 And I am most like Lady.  

 This is in Eureka, CA. It's the Carson Mansion.

 Along the Trinity River in Northern California

 Whiskeytown Lake, Northern California

Thursday's Through The Lense - May's Favorites

Welcome back to my weekly photo post.  Since today is the last day of May (please, 2012, could you slow down...just a little bit?), I'm going to post some of my favorites of the month.  Enjoy!

Mom's famous 3-Layer Chocolate Cake

Just north of Phoenix on Memorial Day Morning

The Spokane area 

Gondolas on the Spokane River

Field in Idaho around the Grangeville area.  Not sure what the flowers are.

Same field, just a different section and unedited.

All were taken with my iPhone camera.  And all but the last one are edited with either Picfx, Camera+, Intagram, or a combination of all three.

Thursday's Through The Lense

I really don't have a specific direction to take today with pictures.  I got my wedding CD about a month ago. I've not ordered ANY from my photographer yet, but I so want to.  So I'm going to share the ones that will probably find themselves on the wall in Ring Manor.

 Family

My three new siblings

My parents

His dad & step-mom

Wedding party

My FAVORITE!!!

 Pomegranates and Wind-chimes

Yes, I own them now, but I still wanted to give a shout out to my AMAZING photographer!

Thursday's Through The Lense - April Instagram Favorites

I really think the title says it all.  Here's what we have from April:

That man going up for the spike...yeah, that's Mr S!!  So proud of him and the team from this past weekend's volleyball tourney in Las Vegas!!

 A B&W through the window in my office.

Flowers in Fairfield, CA.

Sushi...It's what was for dinner two weeks ago!

Another view from my apartment...this one's off the balcony.

Thursdays Through The Lense

I would say "Back by popular demand", but no one seems to have missed these.  Oh well!  I'm going to start back up anyway. 

For those that care, I am still doing the photo a month (via this blog).  However, I'm limiting my photos to the iPhone and Instagram (follow me there at Ringsgal).

For these, and all future posts, I make every effort to post a picture taken with my "real" camera:  my lovely Canon Rebel T3i.  And I might even do a few topics for those times I have more than one I want to share.

This week's topic:  Celebrities

Snow White and the Huntsman Director Rupert Sanders, Charlize Theron, & Kristen Stewart

The lovely, and wonderfully personable, Charlize Theron 

 Alexander Skarsgard, Brooklyn Decker, Battleship Director Peter Berg

Alexander Skarsgard (one of the rare occasions he was looking up)

Brooklyn Decker (talking about her role in Battleship)

All of the above were taken at WonderCon in Anaheim in March. (the close ups were pictures I took off the big screen set up for people too far back to see anything)

Enjoy...
