Just having a play with the camera

In 6 days .. guess how many photos I've taken?
OK so now I've said that you're thinking BIG numbers right? ... so I've totally ruined the shock.

935!

Out of all of those there is about 20 I like. And most likely in 5 years time, this will be wittled down to possibly 1 or 2 and a "what the hell where you thinking posting these up here?"

But for the purposes of learning and getting this blog up and moving along, here are some I currently like. Mostly because of the fact I have the aperture, SS and ISO figured out!!! LOL

The first three are all Mummy shots.

Ferns near our back door.

A friends fresh baby! This was taken while he was in the car - but am getting some "proper newborn shots" next week! YAY!

Joel's 4th Birthday!

I can't believe my little boy is 4 years old!! It's gone way too fast. He is such a little dude.


Joel loves his Nanny and Grandma, he was lucky enough to celebrate his birthday with both of them.

WITH NANNY!

WITH GRANMA

Watch out Speed Racer, here comes Joel!

I forgot to get a cake mix (yeps, I'm lazy and don't do the whole "from scratch" thing), and so found cupcake mix in the cupboard! Pretty good I thought ...

The birthday boy waiting ever so patiently for Daddy to light the candles.

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY GORGEOUS! xx

My First Photos

Hooray! No more waiting! I have my new camera!

Canon 450D with a 50mm 1.8 lens!

Very first photos ...

First photos in manual mode!!

The Waiting Game

Waiting. It sucks.

Oh so motivated and no where to go.

Saving for the new camera still!
