I mentioned a while ago that I got a new Canon 50mm f/1.8 metal mount lens, like this one, here: As much as I didn’t love my first 50mm lens (I believe I had a lemon), I adore this lens. They don’t make these anymore, and I don’t know why. The metal mount is glorious….
Bloggography Challenge – Exposure Compensation
It’s time for another Bloggography photo challenge! Last week, we talked about Exposure Compensation. This is one of those areas where I could really stand to improve, so this lesson was as much for me as it was for you. Before we get on with this week’s challenge, I have a favorite to share from…
Focusing on Angles
I love using creative angles to capture portraits. Off-center, tilted, and from different perspectives. Particularly, I think kids look adorable when looking up at the camera. Here’s a photo I caught a little while ago of a precious little girl who did not want to sit still. Standing above her caught her attention just enough…
Prom Pictures
I was asked to be the unofficial/official photographer for this weekend’s Church Prom. The Prom dresses were gorgeous (there was such a great variety of modest prom dresses! I was impressed), and the kids were energetic, positive, and lots of fun. Many of my young friends have asked to see a sample of the pictures…
SOOC – Give Me Your Best Shot PSF
SOOC= Straight Out Of Camera This week, I caught a shot that I fell in love with immediately. And after wards I did something that I rarely ever do. I didn’t do ANYTHING. No editing. No cropping. No color or exposure adjustment. What you see is what you get. And I love it. Yes, I’m…
Pictures Worth a Thousand Words
AJ was sound asleep this afternoon when the kids came home from school. I wasn’t about to wake him from his nap just to spend some time outside. Just like kids seem to have radar-hearing in my house when a movie starts playing in the basement, AJ in his deep sleep must have heard the…
Exposure Compensation – A Bloggography Tutorial
For this week’s Bloggography photography tutorial, we are going to explore exposure compensation. This post was written by my co-host, Manic Mother. What is exposure compensation? Exposure compensation is a feature that dSLR cameras (and some point and shoots) have that allows you to manually adjust the exposure levels of your picture. When your camera…
I Can Feel It In The Air! GMYBSPSF
What is IT? Spring, of course! After being cooped up in our house for MONTHS, we’ve finally had some warmer temperatures. The snow if melting and we’re heading outside. The kids were ecstatic about riding their bikes to the park. Can you tell on their faces? I just love that you can see the last…
Bloggography Challenge – Exposure Triangle
Visit my co-host, Manic Mother! I think that our Aperture challenge two weeks ago was my favorite challenge so far. There were SO MANY wonderful examples of what adjusting the aperture can do. Here is one picture that really stood out to me, by Amy: Since last week was a “bring it all together” week…
Punk Toddler – Give Me Your Best Shot
Many of this week’s favorite shots were taken during my recent trip to New York City. Especially the gorgeous Goldfish centerpieces. Love them! Since I’ve been home, I’ve been as busy as usual, but I did take some time out today to hang out at the Parent Resource Center with my friend Safire and her…
