Winter walk: blue

on the weekend i had a chance to take a walk out back.
just me, the dog and my camera.
what a great walk it was.
i got to play with my camera settings.
my goals:
1. to capture the sparkle of the sun off the snow.
2. to capture the bold shadows.


my christmas gift from my husband.


loved these troopers.  hanging on for dear life.


i took this purely because it was a white and a yellow birch.  i'm a geek.

look at the stars on the snow.

"See ya later."






**these are not edited.** 
(except for adding my name)
 i just feel like showing you what i had originally

1st Anniversary - (J&F) *location 1*

i took some fun photos for a wedding i was in in June 2011 
(see HERE & HERE
for their first anniversary the couple asked if i could do a photo-shoot with them.
hmmm..let me think on it..uh..yeah!
i was so excited.
i was actually nervous.
my first, ever, photo-shoot.
i wanted the photos to be perfect.

we were going to have fun.
it was a beautiful..hot..day, and such a blast.

we went to a couple locations.
location one: trail & tracks in town
i love the white of the birch tree.

warm memories

my daughter keeps asking if we can go to the beach.
my thermometer outside the window says it's -18C/-4F 
and that's not including the windchill.
i think the beach is for another day....a far off day.
so here's a few warm memories.
(they were taken on my iphone *tear* and posted on instagram, and now they're here for you to enjoy)

generations

I didn't take my camera out much over the Christmas holidays.
i felt like being in everything happening this year. and not outside capturing it all.
i did take it out for a few special shots.
