camera play

i had just sat down at the kitchen table

with bugsy and a friend of hers

we were scrapbooking, LOL because i am not a good one

except maybe in my daughter's eye

however, she is so creative she doesn't take any suggestions anyways

she just likes playing with all the paper, ribbons, etc

and creating her thing...does that sound familar mom?

anyways, like i was saying, i sat down and looked out the front window

the frost was on the tree and the sky was this beautiful shade of blue

and i needed to catch it on picture

before i downloaded the pictures i thought i did a good job,

but realize now that i should have had a tripod

because you can tell i was moving a bit

i wanted to post the pictures though, just to show the contrast

the first picture i turned of the flash and slowed the shutter speed

the second one (below) i put on manual setting and let the camera do its own thing

same scene but remarkable difference in the end result

i have lots to learn in the world of aperture and exposure
