Fun with water

by Susan on Jun.22, 2009, under Artsy Stuff

I have always had fun photographing water, so I thought I’d turn another one of my class assignments into a water project.  These are pictures of high color contrast (magenta/green, blue/yellow, red/cyan).  So, just for the fun of it, here they are:

Better Late than Never — Florida!

by Susan on May.31, 2009, under Artsy Stuff, My Family

The girls and I had the pleasure of going to Florida with Nick’s mom, to visit Nick’s grandma.  We had a lovely time and have lots of pictures!  We went to the zoo, played at Grandma Jan’s house, and saw the sunset over the ocean.  It was lovely!

First, the Zoo.  I have so many pictures, so I’m really just picking a few.  We saw lions, and tigers, and hilarious monkeys.  Here are some pretty birds:

And here is Jubilee with Grandma Patty.

And a gorgeous gardenia bush!  This thing was HUGE.  I took this picture for my mom because she loves gardenias.

And the feeding of the alligators.  It was really fun to see.  I was very thankful for my 50-250 mm lens at this point, even though it isn’t the best lens in the world, to say the least.  :o)

Next up:  Hanging out at Grandma Jan’s.  Alexis had a grand time in the swimming pool every day.

Jubilee, on the other hand, just wanted to climb in and out and around everything.  It was driving me a little crazy.  But she had so much fun.

And, here are some flowers I found just walking around the backyard.  So pretty!

And, one of my favorite parts of the trip!  Playing at the beach, and seeing the sun set over the ocean.
