Out & About
I had a great week last week. Do you want to know why? Because I got one of these little babies in the mail. I have been wanting to upgrade my camera for a while and so I was pretty much jumping up and down for joy when I ordered it and even more so when it came in the mail. It does so much more than my previous camera and so I have a lot of stuff to learn. But, learning is part of the fun, right? So last night, I dragged Jason to our downtown area to practice so I could get the feel of my new toy. Here are some of our findings as we wandered around…
Now I am all about reflection photos :)
Everything was closed, but it was a Sunday evening after all!
I love these old time barber shops. The inside was even better and I would love to do a photo shoot there sometime.
If you want to get your hair cut, those are your hours to choose from :)
This photo is overexposed but I really love the colors so I thought I would show you anyway!
Some things just look more interesting in black and white, don’t you think?
Occasionally, I could get Jason to jump in a photo for me. But that was a rarity :)
I love these colors…
What did you think about our little walk around town? Did you see it too? The beauty in the mundane? I know sometimes I do. And other times, I let life pass by without noticing. This week I am going to try to find the beauty that is all around that I usually take for granted. And if I’m lucky, maybe I will be able to capture some of those things with my new little toy :)
I hope you all have a wonderful Monday. I will be back tomorrow!

Nice photos! Lionel loves to go out and do the same thing :) Me not so much but I love the pics afterwords.
Congratulations on your new baby!
I ran outside to meet the UPS guy when he delivered my Nikon. I think I scared him…
P.S. I’m too lazy to learn to use mine so feel free to post some tutorials on how to use that sucker. ;)
Thx for the preview of your town. I can’t wait to see it in a couple of weeks!
So so fun! Great pictures, but what I would really like to point out is your arms in the second picture!!! WOWZA! :)
And I totally know the feeling of waiting for a package. I have possibly stalked to UPS guy online for the days leading up to the delivery!
Have fun with your new toy.
Cris – I would definitely give pointers about how to use the camera except for the fact that I am terrible at explaining things. So while I understand the concepts, I can’t put it into words. I’m sure there are a ton of better tutorials online than I could ever give! But, of course, if you have any direct questions, I am happy to answer and will do my best :)
