Coastal Photography…….a pelican and jetty…not much more neat than that!

June 27, 2009 · 1 Comment

Nothing says Port A, as much as the Pelicans along the jetty and the jetty itself.  I played a little with my camera the last time we were there.  Wish I’d had more time, and more subjects.

From the Zoo….

June 22, 2009 · Leave a Comment

These pixs were from my iphone from a while back when we went to the zoo.  They were so cute of Autumn and Mr. Spider Monkey trying to communicate with each other, I had to share.  Not the best quality of pixs…but still cute.

Fun at the Coast

June 10, 2009 · Leave a Comment

We enjoyed a few days at the coast on Memorial Weekend.  It was lots of fun.  Got to go to the beach a couple of days.  The kiddos had a blast!

And for those that never could figure this out.  It was a school of little fish, that came to the light under the water every night.  Was amazing to watch them.

Mason’s 1st Birthday

May 11, 2009 · 1 Comment

I really don’t have time to do but a few pictures of Mason’s birthday.   But thought I’d share a little of Mason’s joy in his first Birthday party.  For some reason, Mason didn’t want to eat much of his supper.  He didn’t know what he missed.  It was yummy……fried flounder, fries, green beans and slaw!

Mason's-1st-028

But the gifts did impress him——until mom took one away, to give him another gift!  He even read the cards!!Mason's-1st-035

But the CAKE was the main show of the party.  He wanted the big one….but again mommy took it away!!  But HEB was generous and give him his own first cake for his first birthday.  Did he enjoy it!!!

Wild flowers & Cactus blooms

May 7, 2009 · 7 Comments

I was out on the ranch taking more cattle pictures, and of  course had to snap a few of the flowers along the way.   Love these since, I was able to take them on my manual settings again, and didn’t think they needed any editing at all.  So enjoy!  Even though the flowers have been few on the ranch this year, you can still find a few pretty ones.

My Rose Garden

April 30, 2009 · 8 Comments

I had to post these pictures of my Roses!  I went out to snap a few pictures of the ranch, and cattle for a project in my photography class and took these too.  I was impressed with myself……..I’m not bragging….  ;)     ..but I did absolutely no edits and they were with my camera on totally manual, with my new lens.   Maybe I have hope……….one day…….to get it all down.  But don’t ask me about the cattle pictures……..I had to do some work and ahalf with photo shop.  O well, the life of an amateur photographer! :)   Anyway take a peek and see what you think of my roses!
