I captured this little guy eyeing our suet feeder after last week’s snowstorm.
Photography
Keto Cabin
Two years ago, I cleared out my cabin kitchen and started a new lifestyle and way of eating. I decided to blog about it, as a way to hold myself accountable, and hopefully provide inspiration to those who might come after me. I also looked at it as a way to try my hand at food styling/photography and finally really learn how to use various social media sites to drive traffic to the site.
I am happy to say that the entire project was and continues to be a success! Currently the blog is a mix of my own photography and licensed stock images (for when I just can’t quite manage to get the shot looking the way I would like using my very basic photography setup). Readership comes from many different sources worldwide and followers continue to grow in all channels, even though due to time constraints I have never been able to post more than 3 or 4 times per month.

Silent Night
This year’s holiday card features a peaceful, twilight shot of our holiday tree, seen shining through one of our little cabin’s many windows. Seasons greetings to all!
Renewal
iPhone shot: Saw this tiny pine tree seedling rising out of a huge old stump on a hike this morning.
Icy sunset
We had an ice storm last month that left us just in time to produce a gorgeous sunset!
Season’s Greetings
This year’s holiday card features a favorite shot that I grabbed during a snowshoe hike on the pond last February. I cropped the original, made a few adjustments and added some digital effects to produce the final card art.
Corbetts Glen
We managed to squeeze in a beautiful afternoon foliage hike while visiting family for the holiday in Rochester, NY. I took over 100 photos! I chose this one to share here because I liked the light patterns on the leaves.
Trying something new
I’ve been working on images for a new food blog with my new Canon EOS T6i camera! After 10 years, I finally retired the Lumix and made the leap to DSLR. Still getting the hang of it, but enjoying the added versatility of multiple lens options!
Holiday greeting card designs
The holiday season is fast approaching! I have had some great response (and small success!) on Etsy with my fall greeting cards, and so I have added some Christmas, Solstice and Winter-themed designs to my Etsy shop. Normally, I would wait until after Thanksgiving to present these designs, but it takes a little over a week to get custom cards made and shipped using Vistaprint, Moo, Cafe Press, Target, Staples, Walgreens, CVS, Shutterfly, Snapfish, etc. (though I believe turnaround is quicker if you use an in-store service). Images are licensed for personal use, which means that they can be used for any non-commercial project. Upon purchase, each design is provided in high-resolution RGB format (for online use), and CMYK format (for traditional printing). If you would like to license any of these designs for commercial use, feel free to drop me a line. You can see more images in my shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/LynneFCreative
