Golden Sky

 I've been enjoying editing these photos the past day or two. They had a really "golden" look to them, and I had fun playing with some overexposure... Let me know what you think. :)

Have a lovely week!

Moonrise

I looked out the window last night at dusk, and was surprised by this moonrise.

The moon never ceases to fascinate me...even though all my photos of it start looking the same ;)

P.S. Can anyone else see the man in the moon? In the middle photo?

A 5:45 Sky

A wonderful sky greeted me at 5:45 this morning.

And of course, I ran for my camera and got a couple dozen shots of it :)

Marine Biology Field Trip

Last week we went on a marine biology field trip...out to the ocean to learn about the sea and the creatures that inhabit it. :)
It was a fun (but tiring day!) and here are the photos I promised you:

What a place to live...

We were taught about tides, water pressure, currents, and sea creatures by a dive instructor.

The water here is amazing....so clear! And when you look out over the ocean, you can see the different shades of blue where the depth of the water changes.

Have a wonderful week!

Boats at the Wharf

Sorry I haven't posted for a few days...I started off the new year with a pretty nasty fever/cold, but I'm doing much better now :) 

Here are a few photos I took last week. Enjoy!

On a happy note, my first photo shoot is tomorrow morning.
I am very excited, (and a bit nervous) about getting to photograph three adorable sisters. :)

Have a lovely day!

Kids Christmas Party | 1

Well, I'm finally doing another blog post. I procrastinated. 

Not because I didn't have photos....Noooo....

I had TOO many photos.

Last Sunday, there was a big party/outreach thing for a bunch of neighborhood kids. I helped with the games...and took a truckload of photos ;D

There are 20+ photos in this post, and there will be two more segments about the same size coming in the next couple days. Sorry. Hope the photos load fast!

:P

The game I was in charge of was volleyball. Nice simple game. "Half of you on one side, half of you on the other. Now hit the ball back and forth!"

Waiting for the kids

It was super hot out that afternoon. Like REEELY hot.

 The kids had lots of fun racing for balls that went flying out of bounds :)

 I LOVE MY ZOOM LENS. You can take close-ups without anyone knowing ;) 

 The event was held at a large soccer field....out in the sun...I was sweating like crazy!

 Taking advantage of a little shade

 Dream helped me run the volleyball :)

 Told you it was hot. ;)

Holding the string for the volleyball net...

....the stringholders made for some great shade! I was holding one end of the string for awhile, and at one point I looked down and there were four little girls sitting in my shadow :D I didn't get a photo. :(

Here I am on the other side of the camera. Aren't you proud of me? (isn't the lighting gorgeous!?)

More photos coming soon.... I applaud you if you were patient enough to let those photos load and read the whole post! *applauds*

Sidenote: FINALLY on Christmas break! I hope to continue blogging regularly over my vacation. :)
