Babies, Etc.

The past few weeks have been busy, but also have been slow.

Concerning my photography studies, it has been slow. I've taken a lot of photos that I hope will fill two of my Unit three requirements. I knew that the outside shots might be hard to get with the weather getting cooler, so I worked ahead. I have quite a few photos to sort through & decide if they will work.

Shot I may choose for my next project - Shagbark Hickory tree in my yard

I was asked to take photos of my niece's baby shower. That was so much fun.

My niece, Ashley

Once the ladies started playing the "Guessing Game," they forgot about me & my camera! It was a fun afternoon. I did have to use my flash & that is always a challenge, since I still need to learn more about this aspect of photography.

Then the next week, another niece, her boyfriend & three month old baby, came for a visit. All my brother's kids that live at home came over too - they can't get enough of their new niece. So, all my side of the family, except my oldest niece & my sister, who is out of state, were over. It was a nice day outside, plus the ping pong table in the basement, the guys & kids had plenty to do, while the ladies had plenty of "woman" talk!

Lillith Jade

I just had to have some of my own photos of Lillith. She loves the camera & loves the attention. Such a sweet & cute baby! (Yes, I'm prejudiced since she is my great-niece!)

My desire is to take more photos of children, babies & bigger people! I find it is fun to capture beautiful eyes & smiles & capturing memories.

Blessings to you all.
