The End

This is my last post on this here blog.

I started this blog one year ago as a newly unemployed drifter who just blew her last paycheck on a brand new DSLR. I wanted a fun way to learn how to use my camera and give me something to do on a daily basis.

365 days later, I'm a working stiff once again with a general knowledge of what the buttons and knobs on my Nikon do.

So I'm ending this blog to focus my time and energies on my favorite kind of photography - pets! If you're into the kitties and pooches, head on over to my pet photography blog. You can follow me as I go from animal shelter volunteer to (hopefully, one of these days) pro pet photographer.

I'll still be taking non-furry photos once in a while and posting them to my Twitter account, @hardyorama.

Thanks for following!

These two things collide behind the Santa Monica Ice Rink.

Sculpted Trees

They're like tree poodles.

This is one of my work mates enjoying his time out during our afternoon fire drill.

My Desk

Hey, that's me!

Takeoff

This is the second time my airplane pencil sharpener has been featured here. It's also the second time for my flashlight, in an admittedly similar photo...

Coin Laundry

I had read a bit about the "zoom effect," where you take a photo while zooming in or out. So I wanted to try it on this neon sign.

Bookshelf Garage Door

Out of the corner of my eye, I really thought this was a garage full o' books.

Smile for the picture!

The Trails @ Griffith Park

Mmm...pie.
