All the elevens :)

Getting shots

I have started builing a good collection of shots that I have been happy with.

It has been good to do that, as for a while I was not happy with the shots that I was getting. Though that was understandable as I was not finding any decent shots.

As soon as I have got myself organised I am going to start spending time each day to developing my photography skills.

Getting focused again

While the best time for me to get focused will be when my wee ones start school I need to start getting my mind back on track. I have wandered along without a goal.

I need to work out what I want to do and then work out my plan of action.

I do know one thing. I will not do wedding photography. I am not going to dismiss portrait photography, but I do not think I will go for that either (I think if I am going to go for portrait photography I would go for candid shots rather than posed shots)

I met up with a friend that I met through Flickr recently. It was really nice to meet her and we went out for a trip to the beach. I love going to the beach. Here are a couple of shot I got that I have managed to get to edit:

Boat club: (I love buildings that are interesting shapes)

Church window:

Getting out and taking pictures

After seeing the pictures that I am submitting for the gallery, I have been inspired to get out and take more pictures. I have been noticing the flowers again this year (I was not last year) and I am happy with the shots that I have been taken. I think I am getting ready for when the wee ones start school and I will have more time to really apply myself to my photography.

Here is one of the shots that I have got recently:

Happy Star Wars day

May the fourth be with us all.

My prints arrived today and I have decided that as I was given six frames that I will be putting in six pictures.

It looks so funky seeing my pictures framed. I am really happy with how they look and I will be getting a picture of them before I hand them in. It is the first time that I have seen one of my photographs in a frame.

Exhibition

I have decided to submit five pictures to the exhibition. I am cutting it fine though. I am so lucky that I will be given five picture frames and I have ordered the prints for them. Hopefully they will arrive in time.

Supermoon

I was worried that I would not be able to get any shots of the full supermoon tonight, but thankfully the sky cleared and I was able to get some good shots of it.

Here is what I managed to get:

It does look really funky, so I feel very lucky to get the shots that I have done.
