Photo class day 2.

The Day 2 assignment for the Opposites photo class was NEW.

I took this photo this evening...

(1/100, f5.6, iso 500)

Wow! I am SO excited about how this came out! I took everything I could remember from the beth v photography blog, and put it to work. I am most excited that I know HOW I took this photo, instead of just accidentally taking a good photo. YAY!

So obviously the NEW part comes in with the new flower. New life. New beauty for my new garden spot. I love this new flower. It's a Ranunculus. I've never planted these before, but was completely taken by their beauty at the nursery the other day. And now, after this picture, I love it even more. It was mid evening when I took these pictures, and very cloudy, so my iso was higher than I think I would normally have it set for outside pictures. (At least I think! :)

Here's one more photo of my new Ranunculus, this one a beautifiul yellow. Again, I am so pleased to say I took this picture!

Happy Spring!

About Me!

I am a Christian, a wife, and a mom of 3 great kids, Ellie age 11, Annie age 8, and Austin age 6! Most of my days are spent mommying, driving, and praying to keep my sanity! Thankfully I have a great husband, Jason, who grounds me, who supports me, and (for the most part!) understands me. I also have some pretty awesome family and friends that are always there when I need them! In late 2011 our daughter Ellie was diagnosed with Asperger's, an Autism Spectrum Disorder. In early 2012 our son Austin was diagnosed with ADHD. So yeah, it's pretty much a circus around here! As crazy as it gets though, I know I'm not alone. God has lifted me up time and time again, and I thank Him daily.
