RIP - Joseph Vincent Paterno 1926-2012

These are just a couple of photos I took of JoePa over the past couple of years, coaching at Penn State for 61 years.

▲ JoePa pre-game of his 400th win

▲ A photo I took of him getting off the team bus and made it into a good luck image for his 4000th win.

At the Rose Bowl 2009 with his son in the picture behind him.

Some Packards

Some Packards I found fun and interesting...

1934

Not sure of the year, love the paint color and the grille!

I like the garage didplay behind the cars!

A Harley used in dealerships

I just walked past this one at first then when we were looking at the engine display I saw the rumble seat! In my opinion this needed a better spot in the Museum, I never saw a windshield in front of a rumble seat.

Not that fond of the color pink, but this is pretty nice!

Love this white luggage

Lincoln Highway Display

The Lincoln highway display at the Packard Museum was a surprise since we live so close to it and use it often.

WELCOME

Hello, glad you could find the time to visit! The Clicks Of My Shutter welcomes you to a photo journal of things happening around me, places I go, sometime just to take photos. I am an amature photographer who likes taking photos more than people like looking at them!! Most of the photos can be viewed larger, I keep them pretty small for easier uploading. Remember you can look at older posts by clicking the older posts link at the end of the page. All photography is copyrighted automatically but I don't mind if you use my photos for yourself, all I ask is if you use them on another website give credit where credit is due. If you are thinking of family or other photos, e-mail me at debapaka@aol.com Thanks for visiting!

~ What To Wear ~

I found this on the Web and thought it was usefull! Photographers shooting a traditional family portrait will suggest that members wear a uniform color that the entire clan feels comfortable in. The safest colors are solid muted tones that don't distract from a person's face. Suggested color "dos" include: •Brown •Blue •Rust •Burgundy •Mocha •Hunter green •Gold Conversely, there are a number of colors that you shouldn't sport on family picture day. Some color "don'ts" include: •Purple •All neon or fluorescent colors •Bright red •Bright green •Gray In addition, individuals with fair skin should avoid wearing flesh-tones, such as: •Beige •Tan •Peach •Pink •Bright white •Yellow •Rose •Apricot Black is a controversial color in the world of family portraits. Some photographers recommend wearing black during formal shoots, though most pro shooters tell their clients to avoid wearing black in family portraits because the color may cause lighting issues. Extreme contrasts are to be avoided at all costs during photo shoots, especially when multiple subjects are involved. You're better off sticking with neutral colors that will accentuate your natural features.
