So I am trying to go manual with my camera settings.
Here are a few that I think turned out great for a first time manual shoot with NO photo editing. I was so happy with myself...I didn't need to enhance the colors or anything!
FinePix S5200
f/3.2 ISO 200
FinePix S5200
f/3.2 ISO 400
I was playing with aperature settings with this shot. It worked...her toes are in focus and her face is not but I was aiming for something more dramatic...
so I edited it to have more blur. I didn't enhance or change anything else.
With this one I had to edit out a van that was behind her in the distance so I went ahead and added a vingette while I was at it. I like the look.
I thought this was a neat shot.
I like it even more with the editing.

Take a Look Around
A Little About Me & Photography
I have always enjoyed photography. As a young girl I remember driving my parents crazy always using the camera and begging them to pay extra for one hour processing. Thank goodness for digital. I love the instant gratification being able to see the photo instantly on the back of the camera. One day I made a cute little tutu and had my daughter model it for pictures. They were some of the best I had ever taken. As I looked over those photos I thought, "I want to learn more." Since then I have taken courses and joined photography groups for knowledge and support as I learn more about photography. Thank you to all of my friends and family who have patiently allowed me to practice on them. Thanks to my sister, Amy, who joins me in this learning journey. A big thank you to my sweet husband who supports and encourages me in all I do. There is so much satisfaction when I capture that perfect shot. I want to capture the everyday moments in a beautiful and creative way. I want to document the ordinary. Like the saying goes..."Enjoy the little things in life...for one day you'll look back and realize they were the big things." I hope to record the little things with my photography. Little moments captured forever. It's like time in a bottle.

My fav is the last one. I like the editing with the vintage effect with just the hat.
These are great. You are so talented and organized-you can do so many things at the same time!
