Why does my life have to be so packed and interesting? (Rhetorical question!) If it weren't, I might actually get more writing done. I still can't imagine ever being bored.
My current distraction is an online photography workshop called Photosanity. I learned about Photosanity via a discount site, and I was hooked when I learned that it is geared toward helping parents take better photos of their children and organize and share these pictures. I am currently on the third week (new lessons are posted each Tuesday), and I have already learned some great tips and gathered new photography resources.
- Lesson 1 - Start a photo-a-day project
- Lesson 2 - What to look for to get the best photos
- Lesson 3 - Getting your children to cooperate
I have taken a lot of photos of my son since his birth nearly two years ago, but I am taking even more with this class as inspiration. I am getting better at selecting photos, though I still hate to permanantly delete any of them. These are a couple of my favorites:
 |
Toddler parking: Proud of his new truck. |
 |
| Pretty, Mommy! Showing off a blade of grass. |
Struggling with: Depth of field
Currently reading: My camera's user manual.
Special events: My 37th birthday, on February 19, will be spent with my family at Bright Star Ranch.
Please share your favorite photo-taking tips and resources. I have a long way to go with my photography and so many special moments to capture with my son.
