ABC Wednesday... the letter T

Found this through Bonnie's blog. Bonnie's like my networking person, I'm really glad she found my blog. She's opened up the rest of the blogging world for me.

I'm still not tottaly clear on the 'rules' of ABC wednesday but I guess you just post photos of whatever alphabet letter they are on. (Do they have to be new photos or can they be old?) The moderator of the game left a comment on my last post so I went and checked out her blog. Today is T... I don't have a camera in front of me (i'm at work) so I'm gonna run through the archives and post some pics. This is gonna be a great way to push me to shoot more often and think creatively. Looks like happyone (another person who's blog I frequent, because of Bonnie's introduction) participates now too. So here's to T!


Traffic
(tried some faux hdr on this one to change it up since I just posted this pic)

texture
teapot

toilet

Talsi, Latvia the crosses look like T's also.

Teaching

hey, this is fun!

T for traffic is a good start.

Yes I've been to Estonia - check out the links to Tallinn in my post. Never been to Latvia though.

The idea is to post something around the relevant letter each Wednesday - I joined in at K - I think after we get to Z everybody is going to start at A again.

I'll add you to my list of ABCers when I next update that list.

You have quite a lot of T pictures. Good pictures and good ideas!
I wish I had started this earlier. I'm hoping when we get to Z we will just start over again with A.

I have a feeling you have used up all the "good" Ts! Nice photography.

Traffic, tea pot, toilet and so on. Many good ideas for a T-participation.
I joined with O, not so long ago, and I think it's fun.
Welcome.

Very good start on your first ABC Wed,
You must also try the Sky Watch Friday.
I too found both these sites to open to many new things in blogging. And such nice people with great photos of places that we can't go too.
Will add you to my blog.
Glad that you liked Oregon the best, as we do have a variety of scenery

good stuff, and those off-camera lighting shots on flickr were amazing. Now I want to buy myself some strobe action. Ha!

There's some good stuff here! And I am interested in lightroom too...so let me know how it is. At some point, I want to either get that or upgrade to Photoshop CS3.

Hi Jim and welcome to ABC Wednesday. To answer your question there are really no rules. I try and get at least one picture during the week of the letter but have done archive dipping also. One reason I joined (at 'A') was to give me a reason to be out shooting looking for something specific. It has been a a lot fun and a great bunch of encouraging people. I am going to add you to my blog list for next week.

PS. You really have some exceptional photos, I like your style.

Hi Jim, welcome to ABC Wed. You have a really interesting selection of photos and a lot of T's! Thanks for visiting my blog too. Regarding your questions, I live in Singapore, hold a secular job in the financial industry, and serve in the financial aspects of my church's missions program on a volunteer basis. So I need to frequently visit the missionaries we sent out. You can find out about my church under the category "GLCC Pics" in my blog. Have a blessed day! Deb

Thanks for visiting my blog. I added you to my ABC Wednesday blogroll. I really like your "texture" architectural shot. To answer your question, I'm using a Canon 20D digital SLR camera. I had it for about 3 years now and love it.
