Cookies & Milk

 I decided to try my hand at food photography today.

I made a batch of our favorite peanut butter chocolate chip cookies :)

(and wow, setting white balance is the hardest thing in food photography! That and trying to manually focus!)

 :D I considered trying to stack as many cookies as I could on top of each other, but I was having enough trouble with just five...

Hungry?

Photo to Painting

 I was honored to have my sister paint one of my photos recently. She did a wonderful job!

I especially love the palm trees :) They look hard to paint.

Yup. More photos of the cat. ;)

Aren't those eyes cool!? True cat's eyes. :)

Look at that paw. And that claw...

Lovely weekend to you all. :)

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!
