lots of fun spots for us to play - here's a few of my favorites out of MANY MANY... starting off with my very favorite first (so far):

rings

always wanted some close ups of our wedding rings on a flower - decided to play around with a few of my own. Geraniums aren't the best for this, but pretty much the only flower I had to work with - actually like the first one - simple and on their own.

Hendo's

lensbaby Baby!

so I bought a new toy and have been experimenting with it. decided to go on a walk about to try it on a few things - interesting results - some I didn't foresee. It's interesting how the camera sees things differently, especially through a tilt -shift ;-) I'm still learning and it can be actually a little frustrating to find the focus I want, but I think I'm going to like it. I just need the right subjects. It's not something you would want to OVER use I think. This first one reminds me of jewelry - like a crazy pendant with different stones - does that make ME crazy?

so I really don't need much of an excuse to take photos of my dollies as it turns out - here is a few from one of their very favorite things - tea parties - they are such girls!! BTW - for all of those who want to get great photos of their kids - finding a fun activity they love is really the best way - catch the little guys in ACTION! Of course my oldest likes to ham it up a little too.

Kruse Farms

so my little helpers and I went out today to pick some green beans in preparation for some more canning. Spicy beans to be exact! Oh so yummy!!! Good photo ops.
