Recovering from surgery

[NikonsandVstroms]

Well not much of one usually, but since my wisdom teeth were so impacted along with my other medical issues this is on the far worse end. Basically I haven't been able to do anything for 4 days, but I just couldn't deal with this cabin fever so it was time to take the Fuji around the yard and see what I could find. It might not have been the smartest thing to do since my body as a whole is beat and I can feel it now but having been productive is always a great psychological feeling:

I am not sure on which composition I like better here:

Wizzies came out --- ouch! I remember when I had mine out. It isn't fun at all so I feel your pain.

Nice photos from around the yard. I really like the 3rd one. I don't know if the leaf is falling or actually has landed on the green leaves. Makes me look...

As for the composition of the last two :scratch First thought the 1st one was better because the equal lines on each side of the last photo was throwing me off some, but then I changed my mind. If I look at the focal point of the light fixture -- the lines on it works well with all the lines of the wood. So....I pick the 2nd one :D

Did I confuse ya :rofl

Sounds like your mind jumped around like mine between them :lol3 I think giving it some time and looking back is my best option for those 2.

And another day and possibly another surgery oh the fun (sinus complications) but for now I am jumping back into work. I did some which I am posting below just now, and debating going out to have some more fun with the leaves and my 50mm macro on the Olympus, always a good time. :barb

Thanks I am going to try a shoot tomorrow (just with a friend so if I am too out of it there is no pressure for results) and hopefully I can hold up and get some more good shots.

[NikonsandVstroms]

I am on too many pain pills right now :lol3 and last night thought I would play with the 35mm macro some more:

But today I felt like just going around the house with my old 50mm on the Nikon and seeing how I do with it since I haven't shot with just a 50 for a long time.

Thanks, I am doing better now and on lesser pain medication which feels great. :clap

The big thing now is Tuesday when I find out if I need another operation (they messed up a bit) and another recovery :lol3 but as long as I am being productive it isn't too bad.

Looks like I basically have a waiting game now for 30 days and hopefully it gets all better. But back to photos I did a bunch yesterday and here are the first few to be processed:

Looks like you had a successful day out shooting. As for the color or bw one...bw one :thumb

A bug -- butterfly?

You turned the one after the butterfly didn't you? Is it a board with leaves sitting in the water?

Your last photo :thumb :thumb :thumb And the one with all the things hanging up...I like how you took that one.

Yep -- successful you were :D

[NikonsandVstroms]

Nope the bug was this guy:

(I am doing B&W versions for myself but they liked the color so the first round was for them)

On the recovery front I will need 2 more operations thanks the the sinus complication, so another month or 2 of being out of it. So this thread might get pretty big.
