My word it has been FOREVER! So much for a couple posts a week. Things have been crazy, we have all been sick, and well, photography was the last thing on my mind :) Anyway, I am back for the time being.
Emotions. That is the theme for the week. Well DD number 1 is FULL of emotion (more than I can handle most of the time). And she always has a big bright smile for the camera. DD number 2 is a little different. She is a lot more mild in temper, but this also means she doesn't always give me that 'big bright' smile. This is her. Just a little lift of the lips and that is good enough for her.

Excuse the poor quality of picture. It was stormy today and I didn't feel like getting out my flash, so I used 1600 ISO.

Thanks for looking!

Here is when I am upset that I wasn't in RAW. I had it on shade WB and it turned out.....well you can see. I tried to fix the color, but am still not happy with it. Also underexposed. The filtered sunlight is a tricky place to photograph!

A few of my favorite things.....

Besides my 50 mm lens. Seriously, I love my 50mm 1.8. I could only imagine what the 1.4 would do. Anyway, these pictures were taken at about 6:30-7 with NO flash. You heard it right, NO flash. I did up my ISO, but still I would have NEVER got this with a bigger aperture (bigger number is what I am going by ;)

Here is my SOOC:

RAW Image
ISO 800
1/60
f 2
No flash, light from ceiling.



And my edits:

And of course my favorite things:

You gotta *LOVE* licking the beater! I don't care how old you are, it still tastes better off the beater!

And my other favorite, Graham Crackers with homemade chocolate frosting. And I *LOVE* how the frosting some how ends up all over the face :)
