D-129 & D-130 Fear . . .

The greatest barrier to success is the fear of failure.”
Sven Goran Eriksson

I let a great opportunity slip by me because of fear. It would have been an awesome boost for my business, but fear paralyzed me. So from here on, I promise myself, not to let fear stand in my way.

How do you deal with your "fears?"
Yesterday after work we took Isabella to the beach. We had a great time.

We took her to Navy Pier in Chicago today. We had a great time! The USO put on a great program for the Families of Military Personnel.

My reading corner:
I read this book "America's Heart & Soul, based on the film from Walt Disney" by Louis Schwartzberg. Just quotes and pictures, but the pictures are stirring. Great coffee table type of book.
This quote was on there also:
"You can't think about fear. Fear causes hesitation. Hesitation makes your worst fears come true." Biker Sherlock, Street Luger
Nikon D-300 User's Manual Pages 43-47
Getting Things Done by David Allen Pages 87-91

D-65 What's in a name? Flower

Well if you're a flower a lot of scientific stuff. Unfortunately I walked out of the florist with out asking the name.

My in-laws gave me a monetary gift for my birthday. I happened to have planned a day for myself in Chicago. Just me. On the way home I found this amazing flower shop. So with that gift I splurged and bought myself several different flowers.
To my in-laws, Janice & Alex: Thanks for the gift. I will take many pictures of my beautiful flower and they will last forever in pictures. Everytime I look at them I will remember the generous gift you gave me. Just for me. Thank you so much and I love you both.

In the studio I used 2 speed lights to light up the background and a softbox for the subject.
