Red Bubble All Cleaned Up

I've been pretty busy over the last few weeks and forgot to delete all of those pictures I mentioned in my last post. But today I stopped putting it off and actually cleaned up my Red Bubble site. In addition to deleting almost everything on the list from my last post, I decided to get rid of the Lego pictures "Rapping My Heart Out," "Squidtron," and the black and white "Lake Lenore in Black and White." The only picture on my list that didn't get deleted was "Orange Gerber Daisy Close Up;" I decided that one should stay. In total, I deleted 54 images from my Red Bubble site.

After deleting everything, I reorganized my collections as well. I decided to get rid of the Black and White collection because all of the black and white pictures I have on Red Bubble are scenics. I also decided to keep the Miscellaneous collection as that will give me a good place to showcase any pictures that don't quite fit into the other collections.

As I mentioned in my last post, all of these photos still appear on my Flickr photostream.

Cleaning Up my Red Bubble

I've been thinking about cleaning up my Red Bubble site for a while now. And now that it's spring, there's no time like the present! I like all of the pictures that I have featured on Red Bubble, but I have an awful lot of them, especially Lego pics. I remember reading that it's a good idea to cycle out your old pictures on Red Bubble to keep your portfolio fresh. So that's what I'm going to do this month, cycling out some of my least popular pieces to make room for future new ones. Rather than just deleting them all, I am going to lower my markup on them until the end of the month so they are all on sale! Red Bubble has their prices set for manufacturing the prints, so I cannot lower that cost. But I set the markup on all of my pictures. So for the next ten days, I am putting these pictures on sale, after which they will be deleted from Red Bubble (but don't worry, they'll still be visible on Flickr) Lego:

Fire in the Sky!

I am really excited about this photo, so I am going to write a whole post on it!

I went for a walk with my friend last night after dinner, and luckily I brought my camera. Last night had an absolutely beautiful sunset! Lately, I have seen sunsets with too much cloud cover, with the clouds obscuring the sun, or else too little, with no clouds at all. This time, there was just a bit of cloud, enough to give the sunset some beautiful colour, rather than just the glow.

I took a few shots of the sun, silhoutting the trees and lamp posts, but then right after the sun dipped below the tree line, I saw that the clouds looked amazing! The way they were positioned, it looked like the sky was on fire!

I had a bit of problems with the settings on my camera, but I did manage to get just this one shot showing the brilliance of the sunset! That totally made my entire night!!!!!

You can find "Fire in the Sky" on my Flickr photostream here.

Fishing!!!!

Today was the first time I went fishing this year!!!! I tried going on Sunday, but it started pouring when we were about halfway to Whitefish. So my dad and I decided to head out onto the Kam river after dinner for a little bit. It was so relaxing, being out on the boat!!! Sadly, I didn't actually catch anything; I just fed the fish all night! My dad was able to bring up a nice sized bass (see my Flickr photostream for the pic!) But all in all, I had a great time. And I even managed to get a nice picture of the sun setting!
