I'm thankful for...
1. My children.
I can honestly say that I would not be the person I am today without them.
2. Planes that remind me of my Grandpa.
My maternal grandpa was a pilot. He had his own 4-seater and would take my sister and I on short flights every so often. It had been years since I'd thought of flying with him, until I saw this small plane.
It made me miss him and his humor.
But it made me smile to know he's kickin' it with Jesus right now, and probably wiping tears of laughter from his eyes.
I really liked this little leaf I found in our front yard. And I really liked that little hole in it, too.
...just for the record, I took this shot this week...

I love the sooc shot and really didn't need to do anything to it, but sometimes PSE is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're gonna get.

Here's what I did:
Step 1. Rotate 90 degrees left.
Ok, ok - technically it was 90 right, then 90 right, then 90 right. ;)
Step 2. Convert to B&W and adjust contrast.
Step 3. Crop.
Great shots, your children are beautiful just like their mummy. xxx
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of your kids! Love the close-ups!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice about the shutter speed and the football. I need to sit down and actually LEARN about that shutter, ISO, aperature stuff. Sometimes it seems so unimportant because I just like pretty pictures, but I do need to learn it so I can actually capture exactly what I want and not rely on getting a good shot "just because"!
Your edit is really pretty, but I LOVE the color on the SOOC.....GREAT SHOT!
ReplyDeletegreat shots and what a nice what to share what you love! Beautiful kiddos:)
ReplyDeleteThese are really great shots!!! I enjoy looking at your pictures. You can definitely see a difference from over a year ago when we did the first 365 project. You have a lot of talent or at least more time than I do to figure these things out. I'll have to settle for my ok shots :)
ReplyDeleteboth are great. very nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post - my favorite has to be the shot of the plane...that's awesome!
