We are having the most beautiful weekend here.  No clouds at all!  The sun was directly behind her in this picture. Shooting in full sun is something I am going to need to practice!

Another one from yesterday. I just love it when I get that look from her!

My nephew again. He very nicely gave me a few minutes of his time, which I very much appreciated. I haven’t been taking very many pictures lately. I need to pick my camera up more often and learn something new about it. I have been shooting with manual outside, but it is more of a hit and miss. I don’t understand how the settings all work together, and that is something I really need to start reading up on!

The only good thing about it snowing in April is the fact that I finally photographed my little ones in their matching sweaters. It’s something I have wanted to do since I bought them, but I could just never get the shot I had in my head. This still isn’t it, but it’s the best so far!

My friend and I took our oldest children shopping today. I was able to snap some photos of the girls. These were shot in auto. I tried manual, but they were underexposed, and there were people everywhere, so I just put it on auto, with the flahs disabled as I am not comfortable enough yet to quickly change my settings. These are by no means technically correct - but I think they’re really fun!

Today I was trying to watch my focus points…I am not sure if I got them right or not. I need to read my manual and see how I adjust them myself. I can really see myself improving on composition. Most of my shots today were slightly under exposed, or were blown out in some spots. Practice, practice, practice some more I guess!

I just adore his big brown eyes. I found a new little spot to take pictures at today. Neither of my children really liked it, as it was on top of a table. But they both stayed still while I did my thing!
