Tilt Shift

Thought I'd try something new.  Faux tilt shift in PSE 10.  Pretty cool, I think!

Last T-ball Game for Marley

My favorite shot from today -  She was none too happy to play ball today.  She was having too much fun with her friend after a sleepover.  What a cutie. 

Root Canal

Nothing like going to the dentist just to check on a recent crown that was put in and leave an hour later having had a root canal!  Ouch!  (Taken w/my phone)

Softball

Had to catch B's last softball game of the season.  (taken w/phone)

Sleepover

After the wedding I slept over with my youngest grandkids.  He's such a happy boy in the morning...  (taken w/phone)

Wedding

Today, we went to the much anticipated wedding of my daughter's best friend, Mindi.  Melinda was her matron of honor.  It was a really fun wedding.  We had a great time!

Poppies!!

Look what I stumbled upon!  A small poppy field!  Yay!  Now to figure out how long they last so maybe I could do a shoot there.   (taken w/phone)

Sweet Violet eClass - Light Assignment 1

Taking an eClass as I am still striving to get my photography just where I want it.  And for the first time I joined Flickr (GrnQQdgrl).  This class actually gives me some feedback which I so need.  I really do want to hear it, the bad as well as the good. 

The first assignment was directional light..
