Well, spring officially started almost two weeks ago. We had a couple of nice days. These started showing up:
They were so happy to see the light!
And then last weekend, we got this:
And then it looked like this:
And this:
Luckily, the snow has mostly melted. There are still […]
I’m lazy again today, after waking up to snow and working another 5 hours and keeping up with the boys and some housework. So I’m using my 7 Days assignment as my post for today. Again, it has to be a “self-portrait” and today, it was supposed to incorporate “yellow”, however you may interpret that. […]
My sister-in-law, Catheroo, has participated in a photography group on Flickr called “7 Days” in the past, and I’ve been wanting to do it too. I’m so proud of myself for remembering to check on the group before this round started!
The idea behind it is to take a self-portrait every day for seven days. […]
I wasn’t so sure what to do this week. Suddenly it’s Wednesday and I want to get the picture taken so I don’t have to stress about it Thursday. Here are my entries:
Here’s my favorite: I think it looks like he’s really kissing himself, or his twin, which doesn’t exist! It’s […]
So this week, I kind of cheated. And Beth, the assigner, specifically said we’re supposed to “break out our camera and take pictures based on the assignment.” So I feel a little guilty. The assignment was shadows and as soon as I saw the assignment, I knew the picture I wanted to use.

The theme for You Capture this week was “texture.” I really struggled with this for a while. I think it’s partly because I’m feeling sort of uninspired. I feel like we’ve been waiting forever for spring, and it’s taking its sweet little time coming to my part of the world. Take, for example, the temperature […]
I’ve discovered a blog called I Should Be Folding Laundry and it’s on my Google Reader so I always know when she posts. She’s fun to read, and she makes me want to do more blogging and get a larger group of readers. Many of the blogs I’ve been reading make me feel this way!

Remember a few weeks ago, when I wrote this post? Well I got the email today saying they’ve chosen my picture of the tree in the Walnut Room at Macy’s to be in the Schmap Chicago Guide!!! Needless to say, I’m pretty proud of myself! Yeah me!
Check it out!!! Walnut Room, http://www.schmap.com/chicago/restaurants_romantic/p=10738/i=10738_8.jpg

Okay, not in the “super-mega-star-Jennifer Aniston/Jennifer Garner/Meg Ryan” kind of way, but in the “small-I’ve-never-heard-of-but-it-must-be-looked-at-by-someone-travel-guide-photograph-byline” kind of way.
I woke up this morning to sunshine (okay, it was still dark when I woke up, but the sun came out shortly after that), the promise of a brand new day, excited to be on the brink […]
For class tonight, we were supposed to research famous photographers and emulate their work. I don’t think I did a very good job, but I had fun taking pictures today. Caden and I braved the cold (and it was coooooold) to get some fun shots. I kept him amused, and warm, by having him run […]
