Two Sisters ~ Have Cameras, Will Travel
We are two sisters who share a love of photography. We dream of traveling together to numerous locations where we can photograph to our hearts' content. We live in different states, but the distance vanishes when we talk about photography and share with each other what we digitally capture.

Week 3: Chestnut ~ Delores




For this week's Project 64: Out of the Box I "dusted" off a photo I took in October. When I was visiting family, my sister and I went to First United Methodist Church in Corinth, Mississippi while looking for photographs depicting architectural "letters." The hardware for the door handles on one of the doors of Fillmore Street Chapel look like the Letter "H." My sister has seen names spelled with architectural alphabets. {Forgive me if this is not the correct terminology for this style.}


Wanting to document the building itself, I stepped back to get a more broader view of the entrance. As you can tell from the aged brick in the photograph near the top, this building has a rich history. The sign out front says "Corinth's oldest church bldg: erected 1871 by Cumberland Presbyterian Church, the first church est. in Corinth.  1906-1976 served as Fillmore St. Pres. Ch. Now used as chapel by First United Methodist Church." The interior has been remodeled and this chapel is greatly sought after for weddings.

Week 1: Yellow-Green ~ Delores


The First Crayon Out of the Box

Searching for a specific color each week is something new for me. I was looking all over for Yellow Green outside, but it was difficult since it is Winter. Imagine my delight when we visited a new restaurant in the town. When you first walk in the door you see a display of pots with water trickling down from each pot. First crayon out of the box ~ found!!


It is not every day you are able to capture your first crayon out of the box and a restaurant on their first day of business.  Here is their marque celebrating the day:

Two People in Every Photograph

Welcome to Our Blog!


Ansel Adams once said "There are always two people in every photograph: the photographer and the viewer."  We are delighted you have joined us as we share our love of photography.


We are on a journey to learn as much as we can. Some of our photos will be posted for your viewing pleasure. We will be participating in some challenges created by others and some we have set ourselves.  Our subject matter will vary as we seek out color, texture and the wonder of the world around us.
