Halloween Pictures

My monkeys for Halloween:

All of Them Together

Double Trouble (she liked the half angel/half devil angle...hope that isn't what her teenage years will be like)

Cleopatra (she refused the black wig, lol)

Barbie (her skirt had fiber optics in it that would light up when she'd press the button at her waist...she loved it).

Punk Rocker - Anarchy Dude! Rock on! Can't see the blue in his hair:(

Nature Pix

I snapped this photo on one of our walks through the forest while on vacation. It was mid-morning and I just tipped the camera up towards the sky and snapped it. I wasn't sure what I was taking a picture of since I wasn't looking through the lens but I like what I ended up with. I have a few of them like this. I am trying to think of what would be the best way to finish these - perhaps black and white? I've not decided yet.

Blowing in the Wind

Here's the littlest again. I like this picture too. It looks like she's deep in thought (or up to something) with her baby fine blonde hair blowing. Daddy says her face is getting fat, lol. Toddlers are supposed to have baby fat!

I can't wait to figure out Photoshop and see what I can do with these. I might make some black and white? What do you think?

My Darling Baby Girl

I took my daughter into our backyard and snapped a bunch of pictures of her. Her siblings all had spring portraits taken at school and she was due for her own. Rather than pay somebody else to do them, I just start snapping away and find some of my favorites. This is one of my favorites. What do you think?

I wonder if I can Photoshop out the background? I recently loaded Photoshop onto my computer but haven't tried it yet so I don't know if it is even possible but it'd be nice to get that fence out of there.

They Got It Right - For Once!!

I'm talking about school pictures. Usually, at least one of my kids' pictures don't turn out right. Usually it is my youngest off center (I don't know how they manage that every time with her but they do), but this time for their spring portraits, they got it right! All three of their spring pictures look so good. They brought them home today and they look great. I'm quite happy with them for a change. Now I won't feel so bad about spending all that money on them this year (they do hit your wallet pretty hard when you have several school-aged kids). I have such cute kids, lol!!
