Skylar was originally supposed to be a fairy, but she refused to wear the requisite tutu (I don’t blame her) so we went with our backup option: Super-Skylar!

Natural beauty
This is a testament to two things: the natural beauty that surrounds us everyday at any moment, and also the ridiculous technological improvements in cameras.
I took this one night around 10:00pm from the middle of the street just outside our house. No streetlights or artificial light other than 2 porch lights on the front of my neighbors house that the camera picked up in the tree leaves.
For camera nerds this was shot at: f8, 32 second exposure, ISO 800. Beautiful starry night 🙂

Lexington Video
Hanging out at Rose Farm Hill Ln. Or is it Rose Hill Farm Ln? Or was it Rosehill Farm? This is the conversation I have everything time I try to set the GPS, which by the way has no idea of any of those addresses :)-

Parker Baptism – Lexington
It was such a good time to spend a weekend with Nana and Poppa D! Skylar also got to play with her cousins for a little bit on Sunday before we had to jump on the road to coordinate with nap schedules. Taco also had a great time and probably started getting used to being an outdoor doggie. No herding cows on this trip though 🙂

Daddy’s new camera
My camera was 7 years old and in digital years that’s like a millennium. I finally bit the bullet and got a new SLR that also shoots video.
The image quality for stills is slightly better but the video it shoots is unbelievable. YouTube can’t do it justice – but it’s almost broadcast / Hollywood quality.
It takes some practice and knowledge to get good results, but it’s crazy to think that for not that much money you can create your own Indie movies and no one will know you didn’t spend a million dollars to make it 🙂

Giraffe head
Skylar – you have a Giraffe on your head. Grrrrr….
She actually wasn’t growling at me, I think that’s the face she makes when she’s doing her fake smile face, but it definitely looks menacing. That’s one crazy looking Giraffe!

Picture time at RTC
10 minute photo shoot on the way to another event. Snapped it on the front lawn of the RTC.

Pics in the front yard
Nothing too crazy – just some pics in the front yard one afternoon.
