I See Monday

Today is the first day of the return of Photo Week! I’m hosting this time and I chose the 5 senses as the theme for the week. I think it’s going to be a challenge and I look forward to everyone’s snapshots.

I wanted to get an early start but this weekend was packed full of wedding activities for some great friends of ours. I hope to get back on track with taking pictures tomorrow afternoon.

This is Nate seeing his beautiful bride for the first time. Their ceremony was amazing and you could just feel the love in the room.

This is Hubby. He’s actually watching another groomsmen play piano. I have to admit I post processed this picture a bit to black him out. I don’t usually do that (especially for Photo Week), but the original came back with some weird green feedback on his face. He has the longest eyelashes EVER.

Be sure to check out the other participants this week (let me know if I missed you)

    I am totally addicted to learning anything/everything about cameras now. I blame you! haha. I think macro is my favorite setting. Do you have a macro lens or do you use your kit lens+macro setting? Thanks for putting up with all my questions!

    Ha. Sorry or You’re Welcome 🙂 I used the Macro setting with the kit lens. I think for the middle picture I used my 55-200 lens. The others are with the 18-55 lens.

    I find myself not using Macro as much as I thought I would. Since the flash goes up. Based on what I learned yesterday I might start using Landscape for food pictures.

    Probably 90% of the time, I just use the Auto setting or Auto w/o flash and let the camera do all the work. Sometimes I use Shutter priority or Aperture priority. I’m glad this week’s photo week is causing me to try out all the different options.

    Jen! I took the same picture of the seed on a dogwood tree, mine didn’t turn out that great though… We are always on the same wave length. Nice job!

    Thanks for the insight, Jen! I don’t know squat about taking pictures, so I appreciate your words of wisdom. That checkers set is so cool. Great angle!

    I’m a big fan of the checkers shot as well!
