It’s so annoying if you’re not me. But, I am me, so I’m having fun!</p> <p>Anyways, there’s trillions of photog websites, from mamarazzis to professionals that give all sorts of advice, hold contests, have “theme” weeks, etc. I’ve had fun browsing them and trying some of their techniques and challenges. One site (now I can’t remember which one) had this week’s theme as “Hands, feet, fingers, and toes” so I took these photos to practice and have fun with.</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoJKYQqMI/AAAAAAAAADU/uJDJ5NQqmGk/s1600-h/IMG_1970-copyweb%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMG_1970-copyweb" border="0" alt="IMG_1970-copyweb" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoJmYU1yI/AAAAAAAAADY/I-x4hSUNqn8/IMG_1970-copyweb_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="420" height="286" /></a> <a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoKP5asHI/AAAAAAAAADc/NxBxmwBm7a4/s1600-h/IMG_1982web%5B7%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMG_1982web" border="0" alt="IMG_1982web" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoKvFU3mI/AAAAAAAAADg/UPlvwXasKuo/IMG_1982web_thumb%5B5%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="418" height="294" /></a> <a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoLYQiFsI/AAAAAAAAADk/P_7Tj6jIGeE/s1600-h/IMG_2063web%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMG_2063web" border="0" alt="IMG_2063web" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoL7ZnGRI/AAAAAAAAADo/yTjHUwMrFt0/IMG_2063web_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="422" height="287" /></a> <a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoMe6Z3QI/AAAAAAAAADs/PGOSZ0gCmVI/s1600-h/IMG_2064web%5B5%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMG_2064web" border="0" alt="IMG_2064web" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SoIoM1VidiI/AAAAAAAAADw/DoeTCzMhMsk/IMG_2064web_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="422" height="292" /></a></p> <p>A few of the sites I really like are:</p> <p><a href="http://iheartfaces.blogspot.com" target="_blank">iheartfaces.blogspot.com</a> <br /><a href="http://digital-photography-school.com">digital-photography-school.com</a> <br /><a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/photography">thepioneerwoman.com/photography</a></p> <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2685237859723386809-1527093688241493142?l=theraputic-creativity.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>TChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03648177330153150807noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685237859723386809.post-84801966286339727352009-08-06T10:12:00.001-07:002009-08-06T10:12:40.447-07:00<p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SnsO_TFxRGI/AAAAAAAAAC8/9WA_xIrYgbE/s1600-h/IMG_1615%5B10%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="Vi sitting" border="0" alt="Vi sitting" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SnsO_3sKiVI/AAAAAAAAADA/SYG5RcujkeQ/IMG_1615_thumb%5B8%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="388" height="262" /></a></p> <p>Since the main purpose of this blog is to <strike>brag</strike> document our family life for ourselves, friends, and family to read, I figured this milestone deserved a post of it’s own.</p> <p>Violet sits. <br />Age: 6 months <br />Comments: she’s cute. :D</p> <p>Now that she can be upright, Charlie’s been paying her a little bit more attention. (No exaggeration, a <em>little bit</em> more. Not tons…but a <em>little.</em>) She’s beginning to prefer sitting to laying, but still needs a pillow barrier since she can topple unexpectedly, especially after laughing or sneezing, or flailing her arms about excitedly. She’s so cute!</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SnsPAegy9xI/AAAAAAAAADE/X89Ls2OU0n8/s1600-h/IMG_1617%5B5%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="Vi sits" border="0" alt="Vi sits" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SnsPA5A_dDI/AAAAAAAAADI/csN-IvnSU3A/IMG_1617_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="347" height="508" /></a> </p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SnsPBS3SzEI/AAAAAAAAADM/Ac6_tf8BLek/s1600-h/IMG_1662%20copy_edited-1%5B4%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="charlie hearts violet" border="0" alt="charlie hearts violet" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SnsPBlAzu2I/AAAAAAAAADQ/LTYn41n6Ujs/IMG_1662%20copy_edited-1_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="356" height="241" /></a></p> <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2685237859723386809-8480196628633972735?l=theraputic-creativity.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>TChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03648177330153150807noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685237859723386809.post-75323654891283754372009-07-10T13:19:00.001-07:002009-07-10T13:26:39.243-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SlejEBa8bzI/AAAAAAAAACs/-p_6qckeg38/s1600-h/IMG_3282.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SlejEBa8bzI/AAAAAAAAACs/-p_6qckeg38/s400/IMG_3282.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356929571276746546" border="0" /></a>The Original<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SlejEk8YYRI/AAAAAAAAAC0/9gibdTRfyfc/s1600-h/IMG_3282+copy-1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eAdXMmWTDsk/SlejEk8YYRI/AAAAAAAAAC0/9gibdTRfyfc/s400/IMG_3282+copy-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356929580812230930" border="0" /></a>The Edit<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />This photo was shot at f/4.0 1/5o sec ISO 400 22.4mm<br /><br />I like the photo, taken of my grandmother last week on her 81st birthday.
