I have been down...

And I mean in bed down.  For 2 whole days just about.  Wow.  I don't know what hit me but I couldn't even stay awake.  It has been crazy!

I have been meaning to share this for a while so here goes.  I wish, oh how I wish, I had time to edit more of my photos.  Just a few minutes of changes makes such an amazing difference!  These are 2 shots from when we went to the beach last month and I knew immediately these were 2 of my favorites.  A few tweaks and voila!  What do ya think?  You have to love how easy Photoshop Elements makes things!

Friday chatter...

Wow, where do the days go? I feel like the week just started and it is already Friday. Not a bad thing but man the times just seems to keep going faster and faster. My little guys are growing up and I can't seem to slow it down.

I am in the third week of my photography class and of course am still on week one's lesson! Eeekkk!!!! I so have to spend some time this weekend working on things. I HATE being behind right off the bat. Things just got so busy and of course that is something I really need to actually stop and focus on so it gets pushed aside. Sigh. I WILL spend some time today or this weekend just taking pictures and learning. I did take this cool one of the moon the other night so it's at least a start. :) I will say I never thought I would be able to take a photo of the moon that you could actually see the details of the moon itself. It just amazes me.

I actually made it on to round 3 over at Go Digital Scrapbooking. I have to admit I was surprised but happy. I never have enough confidence in my own work so this has boosted that a wee bit and hopefully will help me to break out of my shell a little more. I want to do so many new things and just seem to lack the confidence to do a lot. Not good at rejection but then again who is?

So...off to work on a layout for the contest and hopefully get some pictures taken while the boys are at "school." ;)

Playing with photos

I don't usually spend a lot of time touching up my photos. I know I should...I just am not sure how well I do with it. I am such a procrastinator when I am not sure if I will be good at something. So, I decided to play around with some photos I took the other day. This is the first one I came up with. I was shocked at the difference. And then I ask myself why I haven't been doing this all along? For a really long time now I have wanted to take some basic photography classes. I just want to learn how to work my camera and how to "frame" a shot. I am determined to get into a class in the next week or two and am looking up some online ones. So if anyone has a good one to recommend please let me know. :)
