Unsuspecting Kids

There just seems to be something about catching a photo of the kids without them knowing it. I have two photos that I love. Both of them are of the kids when they aren't looking and of course for some reason I love them even more in black and white.

See what I mean. They seem so peaceful. One would almost think that they are not about to jump up and probably do something they are not allowed to do. Of course I know better! LOL... However, I still love them and can't wait to share them with the kids when they are older.

Childhood

Good day to you all! I have chosen a picture today that reminds me of how childhood should be remembered as. I think when we look back we should all have a moment of just being kids, running and playing on a sunny day! I took this photo of my neighbors grandchildren while I was at the polo field in front of our house.

Childhood

Shouldn't we all have moments like this. So carefree! I want my children to grow up and remember the little things like this. I don't want them to remember what video game or toy they got but that they were outside having fun doing something.

Fall

Yesterday my son and I decided to go on an "adventure" and we took the camera. I got some really good shots that I posted on my facebook. However, thanks to today's weather one is sticking out to me right now:

fall

The weather is supposed to be a high of 69 and partly cloudy w/ a chance of showers. FALL is here. I love fall it is my favorite season. I love being able to wear comfy jeans, nice sweater and comfy shoes. This is exactly what this photo says to me. I just want to cuttle up w/ a hot cup of tea in an over sized sweater and relax.

Well enjoy!

A little bit of flutter

For today's photo I have decided to upload one that my sister and I were playing with yesterday morning on the computer! (Hey Pam). It took me forever to get a picture of this butterfly. We were fishing with my husband for Fathers Day and it kept flying around us but not stopping. After about 2 hours it finally stopped for a moment. Which was just long enough for me to snap the photo. I'm not sure what it is about the picture that I like, maybe the fact that it was giving me such a hard time or that it came out better than i thought it would.

For just a moment it was still

Whenever I see this pictures I just keep thinking "wow this would look really good in a lavender and green bathroom." I know that sounds wierd but I just keep picturing it there. Maybe its because I think that it would be a nice thing to see first thing in the morning? I don't know.  What do you think.

My first Moment....

With this being my first post I'm not sure where to actually begin. I have been taking photos for a year now and they just sit on my computer and no one gets to see them. I would like to get them out and viewable so I can see what type of reactions people get from them. While my photography isn't professional and I don't have any great photo editing software, my photos are kinda of "what you see is what you get". I am more or less just wondering if people can see what I do. So please feel free to tell me what you feel when you view it.

Well here goes. This is my first photo:

forestry in a small town

I took this photo while walking my dog this summer. It makes me feel like I'm on this nice wilderness walk when in all actuality if you could span out you would see this just lines a driveway and there aren't many other trees around. I couldn't get over the lighting and shading.

Let me know what ya think. Enjoy!
