We had a wonderful weather here in St. Louis today and we even heard the ice-cream truck pass by our community this evening.
I think my little one was playing with his toys and as soon as he heard the truck pass by, he was on his heals and was looking for the truck looking through the windows shades by our dining area. I already had my camera ready as I was planning on taking pictures this evening and was able to capture this moment.
A week ago I had posted Daffodil in my photo blog post titled Simplicity. Back then I had it cut and shot it indoors with a backdrop (link here).
For today’s post I took the picture of the bloom in its natural setting. Flowers are better captured in their natural setting – that’s my personal opinion 😉
That’s a capture of Hyacinth in my front yard. Had to literally lie on my driveway to capture this (as this was low lying flower bloom). Used my Manfrotto tripod to capture this bloom which could be set as close to the ground – it was quite a task though 😉
That’s my 2year old tying to imitate his big sister. Surely he seems to have an attitude that he can do everything and anything that his sister does 😉
I am guessing you teach one kid and the other will catch-up…
That’s the expression on our little one’s face after he had his share of TJ’s Joe-Joe’s sandwich cookies this afternoon -yeah give them sugar and they’ll bless you for sure 😉
I remember those early days when he just used to eat the creamy fillings on these cookies and throw away the cookie part. These days he seem to be enjoying the entire sandwich cookies.
That’s my little boy.
He was a bit upset this afternoon after his sister went out on a play date. He goes “Not fair”…
Here is a picture of my daughter doing her homework this evening.
I have been wanting to start using my other lens(es) besides my Nikkor macro lens and I have to push myself this evening to use my 50 mm lens 😉
When I started this Photo 365 project, I had in mind to make use of all my photo gear (that I had purchased over the past 10 years) one time or other. Today I decided to use my diffusion filter that I had purchased on ebay back in 2001.
I want my snap to depict a dream like mood and with the Kalanchoe in full bloom, it worked out very well.
Used Nikon 50mm prime along with diffusion filter for this snap.
Bought this Kalanchoe plant last weekend to bring in some colors/life indoors 😉
Had to take our daughter to her music class this evening. On our way back home, my wife took this picture as we were riding the Daniel Boone Bridge in Chesterfield. As I had set my camera mounted with manual Nikkor f/2.8 lens set to f/2.8, the frame at the closest end turned out rather soft – albeit it turned out pretty good 😉
