I like this shot of Andie near Bethune Park in New Smynra. I love the sand here – it's got such a nice texture and good color. Sometimes it's almost orange. I like how clean it is in this shot. All the imperfections and footsteps smoothed out by the sea.
I'm not really crazy about the little dress Andie's wearing, but she just woke up from the ride over to this beach, and didn't want to be changed. Then she ran down to the water and a wave came in got her completely soaked. This shot was taken right after that.

This is Bridget at Bethune Park in New Smyrna Beach.

We went to New Smyrna Beach on Wednesday. Here's one of my favorite shots. More to come...

Another shot from the beach that I really liked. This time with no people. There's more I want to do with this shot, I just haven't figured it out yet...

This is the second image from the kite series. I wish i had used a wider aperture to get more focus. I was trying to get the fastest shutter speed possibile, so I shot it at 800 with F1.4. I could have slowed down to 1/500th and still caught the action and gotten better focus.

Oh well. That's the whole point: to learn.


Andie wanted to fly her kite last night. This is the first from those images.

This was shot yesterday afternoon in the living room, with only the light from the window.

Sorry it's been so long since any new posts. I've been really busy lately and the blog has sort of gotten away from me.
But I took the day off today and took the family to the beach. This is one of my favorite shots of the day, taken at dusk.

Bridget fell asleep in the house tonight covered in baby powder. This is with available light at ISO 1600,

Sorry for the delay. I'll be posting more photos soon.

Here is a new shot of Bridget and a couple new shots of Andie to make up for the few days I missed. I got the new Canon 30D on Monday, but I've been too busy on other work to start really working with it. These shots are from this afternoon — even though it was raining I had to do something. The shot of Bridget is inside with just the available kitchen light.
