Reminder – Two days left for Power of Pink Challenge
Just wanted to remind everyone that there are only TWO DAYS left to get your Power of Pink Challenge entries sent to me. I will accept entries until Midnight on Friday October 31.
As an added BONUS, the lovely CB has offered up a prize to anyone who enter in the Power of Pink Challenge. CB made this super cute pink ribbon cupcake iron-on rhinestone that she will be giving away to anyone who enters in my challenge. What a sweetie! See her rules for details (and check out some yummy looking cupcakes while you’re over there)







I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






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!
