Journal Your Christmas

Journaling my Christmas again with Shimelle again this year :) I'm so excited to actually have time to do my album this year. NO commitments, no DT's, no gifts to make...just me and my pen & paper! Here's my manifesto. It's digital, sized 5x7 and I'll get it printed and stick on my inside cover next week.

Hindsight

Here is number 12! This challenge was about HINDSIGHT...you've got to peek at Jakey's, it's AWESOME! Hope you all try this one, it's a toughie, but worth it :) Oh yeah...those luscious red swirls are from Jess Bolton's newsletter...YUM!

Nadia and Duke The Horse

Had the opportunity to take some fun photos of Nadia with Duke out at Sunrise Stables on Johnston Road. She really loved this horse :)

Forgot my Challenge #9!

I totally forgot to post my All About Eve Challenge #9...getting old and forgetful, I guess :) The challenge is based on the Post Secret site which is very interesting.

Al's "Photography I" Class WEEK ONE

This week's assignment is partly here...I'd like to get out again and get some more pics this week since we just had that nasty Noel here :) I have to tell you. it's KILLING me to not crop, enhance, lighten or "fix" any of my photos! BUT the main reason I took this class was to get better shots straight from the camera instead of relying on Photoshop for fixing them. I also wanted to learn to shoot with manual instead of auto settings and "hoping for this best", know what I mean? So here they are...in their naked glory! LOL

**All of these photos were taken, using a Canon Rebel xti with a Tamron 18-200mm lens, on the manual settings: 1/125, F8.0, ISO100**

I really love the next two of my son's friend Kyndra...not sure which is best though?

This is where all the fishing boats are:

Even the birds had a hard day today! This seagull tried for about 3 minutes to get moving against those super high winds we had today:

Hurricane Noel in Cape Breton :)

We had tons of wind and lots of stuff knocked over, trees uprooted, large branches all over the road...fun stuff, eh?
This tree was FULL of gorgeous yellow leaves yesterday...





This one is my favourite...Dev talking to Kyndra about the storm...she's in the window! So cute :)

Some more fun photos!

This is my friend Tanya, who is SOOOO outgoing! Love how her pics came out :)

All About Eve Challenge 10

New Camera, New Class

I signed up for a class on how to use my DSLR, since I now officially own a Canon Rebel xti...SOOOOOO excited! I love my Fuji, but it is time to move on. Mikey is also taking a class with the same people, but his is advanced. Looking forward to November 1st, we should get some really great experience from this :)

Photos from last week

Me with the new background that Devlen painted for me!

Hubby's photos

Hubby took these of me on the way home from the camera store a couple of days ago. He needed to try his lens immediately! I really do love them, not often there's a helf decent pic of me :)
The other photo is my little neighbour Kyndra, who is my favourite model. I took this one after our little trip for pumpkins and gourds.
