Ty Woo

My get pushed partner, Michelle @psychegrrrl challenged me "to take a portrait of some kind whether it be of someone or yourself." So I have a week of people photography that I'm posting. It was a good challenge, as people are the hardest for me to get the nerve to photograph. I worked my way from random students on the campus, to waylaying one of our GTAs, Kelsey, in our break room and asking if I could take her picture, to asking my friend, Kevin, to photographing the queens at last nights drag show on campus (the 12th year they've put it on!) Since I have to head soon to Olathe to see our son, Dan, and try to help him figure out some things on the computer, I'm just copying and pasting this same description on all the pictures. I have to add to this post, however, that Ty Woo is the one drag queen on the bill who really sings, instead of lip synching. And that's because Ty Woo is Tyler Woods, who is a fantastic actor and singer. Frank has performed in plays with Tyler. Apology for this bad habit I have fallen into of waiting until the end of the week to post multiple shots, instead of one a day.

They're all great Mary. I think you did a great job. By the way you forgot to challenge me to do something. Its okay, I didn't mind having the week off.

@psychegrrrl Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed a week off, but I did give you a challenge. It was the second comment I left on your #71. No big deal either way.

Sorry for the late challenge. My 365 page has been messed up all weekend. Finally tried it in another browser and it's back to normal. For this week's Get Pushed challenge, I want to challenge you a macro shot of something from nature, go get up close and personal with nature a little bit. Good luck!

@homeschoolmom Will do! I haven't really explored the macro setting on this new camera and how to adjust everything else I have to adjust to do this. It will be fun (unless it gets cold -- then it won't be as fun!)

I find portraits are tough too- even with people I know!

Super side-lighting with this shot - and really good that you got brave enough to photograph her!
