Photo Friday: Experimenting

These are photos I've taken in the last week while experimenting with the settings on my camera. I took bunches and oodles and scads of pictures, but these were the photos that I was happiest with. Sometimes out of all my pictures, there's only one that pleases me. Other times I seem to hit the photo mojo lotto and find several that I really like. Maybe today I should play my lucky numbers...

It's hard for me to step out of my comfort zone and try new things--even on something like a digital camera where mistakes can be erased at the touch of a button. I need to remember that sometimes stepping out of my comfort zone can lead to wonderful possibilities and outcomes I couldn't imagine. And even if leaving my zone doesn't lead to a fabulous ending, it's a good thing to do. Just to remind myself that the What Ifs might be scary, but the Never Did Its are the scariest of all.
