Why do the boys always get blessed with long lashes....

I finally got my 35mm 1.8 and did a few test shots yesterday. I also took pics of Isaac in his uniform so I could make a collage to put up on the wall with Savannah's that was done in Feb.



I must say it is a nice, sharp lens.


Here is the collage

Mother's Day and something new

We finally had some nice weather yesterday, beats the snow we had Thursday and Friday. What a mess that made.

It was so nice to get outside to take some pictures. I went out with my kiddos just after 1 so we were shooting in full sun unless it peeked behind a cloud or we moved to the shade of a tree or building in the yard.

I am also trying out a new watermark.

A new hobby......







This one is not mine. My son started taekwondo a few weeks ago and we travelled to another town for a lesson today. He was also able to get his uniform.

I ran into a few challenges while taking photos today. The main one is the foam floor alternates green and red so I had major color casts coming from the floor, mainly the red. The windows, I loved the windows since I was able to shoot with just natural light but everything was backlit so I had the background blown in a lot of the photos. My lens was my next challenge, I just have my 5omm and when they were at the far end of the studio it was not long enough. I really want the 85mm 1.8.
