I Heart Faces--Slice of Life

I love my little slice of life. Morning cuddles capture the essence of life around here. Check out more entries at I Heart Faces.

Pretending with Play-doh

I love to watch Kenly pretend with Play-doh. She uses her molds, but she also creates delicious meals out of blobs/balls of the squishy stuff. She asks me or her Daddy to make her things. I love watching her mold her imagination when she's creating these masterpieces.




And because the light was good during our Play-doh session, I couldn't resist a few of these shots.

I Heart Faces--Innocent Wonder

This little water sprite loves every body of water she meets. She's in awe of the magic of water. She can't get enough.

For Kicks--Playing with Lightroom 3

I edited my favorite photo from my impromptu photo shoot at Smith Mountain Lake. Can you tell a difference? Which photo do you like best?



It's amazing was a little Lightroom 3 can do for a picture.

Learning Lightroom 3

I've been wanting to play with Lightroom 3 for awhile now, but real life keeps me from playing for an extensive period of time. All I can say is that I am hooked. I need to sign up for a class in photo/video editing because I could do this for a living. Talk about fun.

Kenly and I met Ava and Meghan at a park off of Sweeten Creek about a week ago. I took this picture of Kenly playing music. With the exception of her blurry hand, I was please with the straight out of the camera shot.
MckMama wrote a blog about some of her editing this weekend, so I used some of her settings and a few of my own. With about 20 minutes of editing, I was able to produce this warm, colorful version of the original.

And now I'm in so much trouble. Laundry might never make it to the washer again.
