Experimenting

In search of the elusive bokeh!
A number of attempts where kitchen implements got in the way, I could crop them out and also get up from the kitchen floor where I shot this!
Well done, me!
My sweet matryoshka doll - actually bought in Russia who might like to be viewed on the Black.

Three good things;
1. Blood Pressure test again… not good - maybe I’ll have to do yoga all day!
2. Did all my fitbit challenges and got the big congratulations!
3. Enthusiastic facetime with Canadian granddaughter aged, nearly 3. She’s discovered jumping and… body art! Not to mention pink fingernails!

Love your picture, love your comment, love your three good things (except #1 - hope the next test will have better results). Summarized: Fav!

This has worked really well!

Well done! As you suggested I did look on black and WOW brilliant!

How beautiful! I love your doll and the bokeh. Are you using diet and exercise to control your BP? Sometimes those two things aren’t enough, you may have to consider meds. Pink fingernails at 3! Too sweet.

@louannwarren I've always had super good BP but just now its gone haywire for some reason. I'm a qualified dietitian so know what to eat and I exercise every day with my fitbit telling me what to do. I'll try and relax i think a lot more - thats why I thought yoga!

@maggiemae Yoga and meditation are both fantastic at getting our bodies calmed down. I’m sure the yoga will help!

@louannwarren I think i'll sit out naked and cross-legged with palms upward - on our deck?

Love this colourful shot, the bokeh works well. Sorry to hear of your BP problems, hope it decides to behave for you with all that yoga etc.

The colors look so pretty against black and with added bokeh bonus :). #1 Sometimes having your own bp kit is helpful. I've complained to my dr about the medical assistant not taking bp correctly so he and I agreed that I'd take my own bp, record it and bring in to him. A new medical assistant takes it correctly so it matches my at home bp numbers.

@grammyn I think she should have a name, don't you think, Katy? Petrova?

This is simply Stunning. Great Bokeh!
August 15th, 2018  
Great shoot with great dof
August 17th, 2018  
she's three already? oh, my, how time flies! i hope the interest in body art is just a passing fancy. mind the bp, maggiemae, although i'm guessing you're doing all the things proper to fight it.

i was once gifted by a russian friend with one of these dolls. i really didn't know what to do with it then, so when i had to move to europe, i had the chance to get rid of it. my sister still has it to this day.

So gorgeous on black an I like the bokeh. Do take care of your BP.
