Scenery Pictures

Its not a secret I got a new camera for Christmas and have had a blast taking pictures with it.  Today I want to share some of my scenery pictures I've taken.  (and one of Teach, of course)  The photos shown before are taken with the camera and then sent to my cell phone (through the Samsung SmartCamera App) and edited using Snapseed, which is a great photo editing program, I think.  Under each pictures I've stated where they were taken.

The clouds were so neat Sunday that I had to get a picture of them!  And the Snapseed program really brought out the blue enhancing the white clouds and white snow.

We went to Camp Creek State Park a few weeks ago because I wanted to try out my Waterfall Feature on my camera.  It did pretty good.  And of course editing with Snapseed (but the camera made the water smooth).

And this is my ol' faithful for testing my waterfall feature.  For this picture (different from other I have taken there) I used the self timer on a tri-pod.  The camera has to be held COMPLETELY still to get the water effect and I learned that everything else blurred when I pushed down the button to take the picture.  So this way it had 10 seconds to steady itself on the tripod before it took it.  Neat!!

If you look close at this one things around the waterfall were blurred as well
