I was working on laundry and PP decided to help me pull out the towels and put them into the basket. Where did my baby go?

Herbs in Frost

First Practice with New Off camera flash

Happy 89th Birthday Granny!!!

It was wonderful to spend the day with you.

You Capture/Red

When I saw the assignment red I thought of tomatoes, sunset, poison ivy leaves, but then I remembered my babies new wardrobe with lots of red outfits! So it was time for a photo shoot!


And I realize this isn't red, but pink is just red with a little bit of white. :)

Space Cameras

If I remember correctly this is the camera that took the photos on the moon.


And these were used for different missions in space.
Sorry for the bad pictures. My dd was trying to eat the camera when I took them. LOL

You Capture/Something you have never captured

Well I am a bit embarrased to say I have not known how to use the light meter on my camera. I have been shooting in manuel for months but was totally doing exposure by eye. I would take a picture, check it  on the screen and then change settings accordingly.
Well this week I am working on reading Bryan Peterson's book on Understanding Exposure and this is the challenge he had for us.
Taking the same picture at different apertures and setting the lighting with the meter.
I used a tripod for this experiment. (I will add my settings later after supper)
 




To see what everyone else comes up with go to Beth's site.

I Just couldn't resist

PP got her first pair of shoes. Plus a fluffy skirt.

You Capture/Old Signs, Done by my ds 13

My ds  who is 13, wanted in on the challenge also. So we took turns. All SOOC.



 
Not sure if this is really old or not, but it looked old.

You Capture/Old Signs

This was actually a lot of fun. They are hiding everywhere. Unfortunately a lot are 1/2 covered by a modern sign.
First ones I found were a grain elevator (not sooc, tweeked a little)

Then I made it to Main Street.

I have always liked this one and think that thing on top looks like a robot!

And this is a old theater that is still up and running.

I just love old buildings. Why can't we build them like this anymore?
(this is not sooc I played a little)
This was next to this theater.
And across the street.  (not sooc either)

But these are 2 of my favorite old signs. In the little town I live in. From the history I have found the partner to Cooper Hardware lived in my house many  many years ago. This building is about all I know about him. I hear he was a bachelor.

My First Paying Photo Session

She is paying me a casserole/Meal. I get more practice and a night off of cooking. Works for me!
This was her favorite one.

I should have gotten her knees in it more.
Attempt at black and white. She didn't really want it b and w so I didn't go into Andrea's tutorial and try to do it right.
