trudging on.


iso . . . . . . aperture . . . . . . . shutter speed. 

the 3 things that seem to consume most of my spare time lately (the buttons and dials on my camera have been used more the past 14 days than they did the 4 years previous). and even though the perfect combo of all three seems to exude me in most of my picture taking these days, i vow to trudge on and resist the urge to switch my camera dial back to my feeling neglected "a" (automatic) setting.  with that being said, here are a few of my favorites in no particular order unedited photos from the last couple of weeks.  for those of you who know a little or a lot about photoging, please don’t look too much at the light, the darkness, the focal point, the part that’s blurry but now supposed to be, the white balance, i could go on and on.  as imperfect as these may be . . . i still love them for one reason or another. the fact that they document the simple things about life, our life, and it happening is why they are my favs.











in the midst of my picture taking one evening,
i forgot i left my favorite coffee drink for the price setting on the stairs. 
guess who found it?  camera already in hand, i had to snap one quick. 
oh, my little miss i, you don't need anymore energy.


and just one more quilt picture . . . because i promised.

photo class.



 
4 years . . . that is how long it has taken me to "really"
understand the manual settings on my camera.
Actually, saying I "really" understand anything just yet would be
giving myself way too much credit.  It would be more politically correct
for me say the information is there, swirling around in my head,
now I must just embrace it and use it for me to say that I "really" do get it.

Lots of love to these ladies for offering up
their amazing talent and knowledge with us.
Hopefully it will change the way I take pictures forever.
You have given me the opportunity to not have to go
another year not "really" getting it :).





And thank you to these fab gals for making it a great time.

Our assignment now it to go out get some "fresh" shots
with our new found knowledge, but I think I already have
mine with this last pic . . . I think it might just be a winner (love it).
