Yes – it was M1′s ‘boyfriends’ 4th Birthday yesterday. We went to a most gorgeous maze and gardens for a picnic, and I took a million photos. All in RAW. They turned out well if I may say so myself!!!!
The terrible two, at three and four!!!!
There’s more – check them out HERE.
My fantastic new lens arrived yesterday afternoon as well. How AWESOME is it! Here’s a few pics – these are pretty much straight off the camera – I took them in RAW – so I did need to adjust the WB – coz I haven’t quite got that sorted yet! One day I will!
Love the coloured rug in the background of my thumbsucker!!!!
Of course I have played with this one in PSCS2! M2 is not smiling – that is more of a grimace that is code for “let me go”!
A quick happy moment.
And – a quiet moment!
There are others HERE.
Feel free to go to those galleries and leave comments, and criticism if you feel the need. I am still learning this photography thing, and could quite easily devote many hours each day to it – but alas – I have children, dogs and a guinea pig – they all need me!
We put up the Christmas tree today. “We” is a term that shall be used very loosely! Went to Santa’s Place, and bought a tree that is just under 6″ at a cost of $29. Pretty good- but than they slugged me for the special stand for the thing. Apparently a couple of bricks just doesn’t do the job anymore!!! Then – I pulled out all my shiny new baubles. Great – let’s go- chuck ‘em on the tree – will be done in half an hour! What was I thinking. The manufacturers of those shiny bally things have now omitted attaching the little tie doo-dads that you hang the bauble with. So – what was going to be a quick job, turned into a knot-tying bauble hanging marathon. Oh well – at least the loops are there for next year! M2 had a great old time. I had a whole heap of those mini-gift boxes to hang on the tree. Nup – not anymore! She painstakinly undid each and every one of them, pulled out the styrofoam cube and had a great old time!!! that child is getting a box of tissues for Christmas!!!!
Argh – this was meant to be a quick one – it’s 10pm – so I need to get me much needed beauty sleep!
