Day 17

Fishing addict. He will be spoiled for life fishing like this everyday! They have fun though, and come home with all kinds of stories for me.

Day 16

Had to put up one of the turtle cake! I was happy with the outcome and the birthday boy was really happy with it!

Day 15

I'm a slacker!!!! I'm working on it though, this 365 project is going to take me 2 years! Sad I know but its in my genes I tell ya! I will overcome it. Had a very hectic two weeks with school getting out, and all that goes with that, and a birthday! Lots of funny pics of the kids so I'll put up a few of them.

First few are called "jump" they all had one so....








A good pinata shot

Day 14

Knowledge

Reading is knowledge, and knowledge is what I need alot of!! Trying, and learning new things everyday. Its addicting, confusing, frustrating and stupendous [thats your word of the day] if you just really "get" one new thing.

Happy Wednesday!

Day 13

The boys have been going fishing everyday. Today while they were getting ready to go I was trying to get my shots and decided to take some of their gear. I do like the lures, colorful. I'm trying to figure out how to make my column wider so I can make the pictures bigger, hopefully soon I will get it! It keeps cutting off the sides of my pictures!

Day 12

I've been slacking the last few days so I will post a few. I'm still trying to make cool shots with ordinary things, maybe I am trying too hard but all I can do is learn right. So that is the theme here. Candles, fishing lures, books, blah. Whatever...

Day 12

Wasn't feeling very creative today but I did get a few good shots. Lots of daisys out at the barn so it was easy to find something to shoot.

Day 11

First - Dina go to this link its a great link for photography tips, contests, etc.. He is giving away a $5000.00 Canon camera check it out:
photofocus.com (Ican't get the stupid links to work)

Today is theme thursday on one of Tasra's pages I think maybe facebook and the theme is "Worn". So it inspired me to look around. I just happened to be wearing my favorite jeans which are getting pretty worn out which makes me :..( sad. Anyway I was trying different angles and wasn't sure I had anything I liked but I was pleasantly suprised to find this one that I love. Also I just read something on Tasra's page about using your 50mm and getting great detail with it. So I changed my lens and started clicking away and this is what I got.

Day 10

Ok, I skipped yesterday although I did take pictures I just didn't post any so today I'll post a few. They are just random; The first is of my first love COFFEE. At night when I am watching tv I will sometimes sit and think "I can't wait to go to sleep so I can wake up and have my coffee" because it is only the most awesomenest (I know thats wrong grammer and not even a word but thats the only word I can think of to describe it) first thing in the morning. I took 2 one without the creamer in front but I decided I liked it in front better (?I don't know why?)


I'm trying to take objects and make interesting photos with them but it is hard! Anyway I tried different positions with the markers in the pail, I'm not really happy with these but I guess its just something I have to work on.




One cool one :)

Day 9

Fun with lens flare. Tasra did a piece on lens flare and it gave me an idea so I went through my pictures and found 2 I liked. If your wondering who I'm talking about, Tasramar.com is her website, she has a really good website for women - check it out its packed full of really great stuff!

Day 8

Ok, so this is still Saturday but I'm going to go ahead and post tomorrow's picture since it will be Mother's Day. Today I took the kids to a local art festival and I got a few photos there, and so many ideas!!! It was really fun and the children's art corner was awesome they really went all out for the kids!! So here are a few, enjoy! Does anyone else have a sillyband craze going on in their area?? Look at the girl helping them she even has a couple on.

Day 7

This is a creation by my youngest son, he was working on it when I got up this morning. It's a rocket ship, the army men are protecting it because they just found it buried in the earth. He asked me to take a picture of it and I thought "great idea" I'll use it for todays blog. I had to make it smaller to fit in the column but you get the idea. To be a child again, although I think I still have a lot of the child still in me. :)

Day 6

A pretty horse in a pretty barn. This barn is a perfect background, and she was so intrigued with me everytime my shutter went off she would just stare at me until I stopped. It made for very nice pictures, I got quite a few.

Day 5

"Yeah we'll be swingin', swingin'" Thats what I thought of when I saw this. Kind of idyllic, a simple picture that can bring back good memories. A still in a day of life, like any moment a child will run in and pick up the bucket. I'm really loving the retro look so you may see alot of that to come. Happy Tuesday to all enjoy the day!!

Day 4

It was a rainy day today so I had to find something indoors to photograph. Then I got on picnik and started playing around with all the different effects and I couldn't stop!! I kind of got carried away so I'm going to post a couple. :)

Day 3
Dewy Morning

When I let out our dog this morning I noticed the morning dew on my strawberry plants. Beautiful little drops on every tip, looks like Mr. Daddy Longlegs found a good spot.

Day 2

Having two young boys, Legos are very popular in our home right now. I had many, many options to photograph but I just thought this one was cute.
