Photography

{kinda} Wordless Wednesday

I am so sad that I haven’t really been able to pick up my camera like I want to. Now that things are settling down I am thinking about doing a 31 day picture challenge just to get myself back in photo taking mode.

Here’s a few I’ve managed to snap in the last week:

The thirst is real

Caught this one on a whim, it’s technically all wrong and real grainy but it depicts real life over here.  See that blur on her hand? She was mixing to her hearts content with a half done head of hair!!

Don’t forget to get in on the $95 Yes to Blueberries giveaway. Giveaway ends on Friday!

    *waits on challenge* I don’t let mines into the kitchen often because they fight to much maybe one day.

    I love the kitchen one! I think the grain works with it since you converted it to black and white! And I’m a big fan of capturing real life!
    And yes, we need a challenge…and a photo walk…..we need to organize.

    Great photos as always!

    Unrelated quick question: I hope you don’t mind me asking but how do you get your videos to transition on to the blog so clearly? I just posted a video to my youtube channel and then over to the blog but it looks so dark, not great quality. We used our video camera to record and looks great once downloaded but not so great once uploaded to youtube. Ugh

      After recording I import the video into Windows Live Movie Maker. There I edit it etc. and save it. Then I use a program called handbrake that suppresses the file size so it doesn’t take forever to upload to Youtube. Once its done in Handbrake I upload to Youtube. Those extra steps make a difference.

      Hope I was helpful. If you have any other questions please ask!

    I’ve been so slacking with my picture takings. Thanks for the boost of inspiration!

      We need to keep each other inspired. It is so easy to get away from the things we love with the mundane things in life!

      Thanks! Don’t be jealous of this kitchen unless you want to clean it daily!

    Gorgeous kitchen – I wouldn’t mind cooking in there, either! And I never mind a grainy shot…. I’m terrible.

      If you cook in it, you have to clean it!

      They love to be in the kitchen making a mess! Those are the memories I am sure I will miss when she is too old to be bothered with me.

    That last pic reminds me of Moo. She’s my little shadow in the kitchen 24/7 now. Sometimes I love to just stand back and watch her mix dough or cookie mix and I get all emotional because I don’t how got so blessed to have her and JJ.

    I’m always here for Addison. I didn’t even notice that puff until you pointed it out. FUNNY!
