Vacation...

Have been on vacation. Many photos to post & catch up on my days, though I have definitely been sticking with the Project while we've been away! Will update once we've settled back at home - most likely Monday.

Day 32

Soccer Camp - Final Game

Michaela goes for the ball

Day 31

What happens when you put 1 container of 700+ Lincoln Logs and 1 toddler within a foot of each other?

THIS:

Day 30

I missed day 29... :( It was a hectic day and I just completely forgot to pick up the camera. Bummed, but no point in dwelling.

Future Soccer Star

Day 28

Waiting for Daddy to come home...

Molly set herself by the door soon before Mike should have been arriving home. Interesting how dogs pick up on their human's habits.

Day 27

Day 26

Day 25

Wow. 25 days in to this project?!?! I am loving this. :)

Here's a new take on my evening ritual... If you know me, you know what this is - no questions asked.

Day 24

Day 23

Mmmm.... The smell of beer brewing...

Day 22

Mike at Night - My Gaming Man

Day 21

Day 20

The Man, Doing What Men Do Best

Day 19

Extremely busy day & no time for experimenting. While at Dock Dogs, snagged this shot of Molly retrieving her Wubba.

Day 18

Friday, I took advantage of rainy weather while out picking up Michaela from school...

Day 17

Busy day, not much time to get into photography. While standing at the front door, I took some shots through the screen door of birds twittering around. The screen gives the image a sort of surreal hazy quality. A little bit of interest, I suppose.

Day 16

Wow, over 2 weeks already! I've been having such a good time with this. I've decided that I'm going to start relearning photography again. Found a great tutorial online & after reading it, feel like that was a wonderful refresher. Think I'm going to focus on one thing at a time. Perhaps the next few days will be working on apertures, and then switching off to shutter speed, etc etc. Whatever! It's a blast working with a camera again. I forgot how much I love it.

On to today's photos. Sorry, yet again, I couldn't pick one!

Logan upset that Mommy dared to put him in time out after he threw a car at me.



Picture that defines our son - 99% of the time with a car in his hand.

Day 15

Two shots taken while experimenting with the SX10...

I was just reading about capturing sun flare & how to do it (bump up your F stop). I set my camera to Aperture priority & gave it a whirl using our beloved dogwood tree. This was taken at f8. I love how it looks!



This shot was taken with the camera's super macro feature. I love how you can see the grain of the ribbon (which was actually leftover from my wedding dress).

Day 14

The first day of June brought the new Canon to the door. Here's a few of my favorites taken while exploring the new camera's features.

Day 13

Logan's birthday party was today (May 31.) Not much time to have creative camera work, but the important thing was to capture the day.

He was playing with a few of his cars and stopped briefly to lay his head on his arms. Not sure what was going through his little mind, but I thought it was cute.



This picture is merely for posterity. ;) Yummy ice cream cake decked out with a Cars theme.
