Beautiful view

My littlest and I went out to play the other day and took some pics of the beautiful trees changing colors. It was jut beautiful. BUT, it was the middle of the day, so the lighting was not so nice for picture taking. We still had fun though. So even though these pics aren't so great, I just had to put something on here!

This view is so pretty, I took this with the Manual setting:
and then changed it to landscape to see the difference. Interesting.

Another landscape setting.
We went and played by the Green River. We even played in the sand. Perfect fun day.

I will hopefully have some good ones worth sharing soon! :) Happy Fall!!!

Out and about

This one is kind of blurry, but I was using a high f-stop to make it have a sunburst effect, kinda cool!
I think this one is cool in it's own weird way. Really weird, but hey - I'm weird!
Couple different settings in the same spot.

Tree turning to fall,
and a close up of it's pretty little leaves.

Pictures at the Geyser

We went to the geyser here last Saturday and I was playing around with the camera to get some different shots of this cool earth this geyser has made. I've been following this website where this lady Darcy is doing a 31 Days to a better Photo. I've learned a lot from reading her posts. She encourages everyone to turn your cameras to Manual and shoot that way. I've been doing it for a while, but it was good encouragement to keep on figuring it all out. Really fun. Here's what I got:





Cool place huh? It didn't actually go off while we were there - it NEVER has while we've been there. One day it will happen, I'm sure of it!!!!

Love that Shot

I entered this into the Love that Shot photo contest just for fun. The requirement is to have faces in it and I just LOVE these faces. So I'm entering this one. So fun.
I took this with the Portrait setting, I was learning how to blur the background. I used my 55-250 lens.

Fall is here...

Love the changing colors and falling leaves. Just so beautiful.

We still have cherry tomatoes growing. So yummy.
This sweet little thing is just past my back yard. Must take someones pictures here soon! I just think it is so neat looking!
This random post is for my mom. I haven't added anything for a while, so I went out and took these just for you mom! :) It was fun. Thanks for asking. I'll try and get out more often.

Sisters

First off, before the cuties - I had to put this one up. I got this shot the other day before the family had arrived at this location. I thought the sun had a really neat effect on this one, I really liked how it turned out.


We went to a couple different places, they were so good. They took some breaks for play time of course, so that helped.




I just love this little look. She had MANY facial expressions to share. So cute!
Here she started striking her own poses, it was adorable.


This one was an accident, but I just love how it turned out! I think it is so sweet and soft looking.

They were playing around with this sculpture and little sis turned around and started laughing. Glad they had some fun in the process.

Sweet R family

My first family photo session!!! These sweeties let me capture some shots of their family tonight. Oh, they were SO good! I learned some new things - this was very good for me. THANK YOU guys!!!

Here are some of the favorites:


I found this sweet old truck down one of the roads. Little B was pretty excited about it. His face lit up when we told him we were going to see a truck. :) This is one of my favorites, for sure.



Doesn't she just have the SWEETEST little face?!




Had to try a silhouette. Little B was running to his daddy, so sweet.


So fun, must do again.
