Lake Photos, 2009

Be sure to scroll all the way down, I posted some photos of the roses that I took throughout the week in different light as a separate post...













This is my friend's youngest son... He is adorable and has the personality to match!!







Now for some tubing fun!!

I love this first photo... I was trying to learn how to pan and create movement in the photo... I was so excited to find this one!! I figured out that tubing is not the easiest sport to learn panning with!! But now that I've tasted it, I can't wait to try it some more!!















An unexpected wave...



Overboard!!!







I had to end with this one... Nick was supposed to be taking it easy because of his broken (into 3 pieces) collarbone... So I just had to end with his and A's rendition of the Macarena on a tube... They were hilarious and they didn't fall off!



Don't forget to keep going and see the photos of the roses... I think these are some of my all time favorites that I've ever taken.

Roses

Ok... I'm going to do 2 separate posts... these first ones are of the beautiful roses at the lake! I had a blast photographing these flowers in the morning and evening. These are some of my favorites. They've been edited in Lightroom...

Abby In The Garden

A couple of weeks ago, Mackenzie slept over at a friends, so I decided to take Abby out to the local gardens and take her photos... These have all been post-processed in Adobe Lightroom 2 (I LOVE that program!) It was a dreary, overcast day and most of these probably would have been deletes if it hadn't been for Lightroom!

I thought this was a beautiful profile photo...







And last, one of my favorite photos of the day...

Swimming & Swinging...

I love the expression on Mackenzie's face as she plays with Abby... She is such a good big sister!! The pool pictures aren't as sharp as I would like, but I just love the photos...
