Ok first I wanna say that editing this picture made me a RAW convert. I took this picture in jpeg and when I was editing it I did not get the same results that I believe I would have gotten had I taken it in RAW. Ok another thing I love is scrapbooking and Saturday I had a scrapbook program at my job. It was really cool, and I had a lot of participation and interest. This is a page I made from the photos I took at the scrapbook program I had in January. Oh and I don't claim to be Donna Downey or Ali Edwards, I just have basic scraping skills and I like to share what I know with the community where I work.

Thanks for looking.

We received this as a wedding gift and we have it hanging by our front door.
I shot it yesterday morning in natural light. f 2.0, ISO 400 . I used my 50.mm lens.

Oh and thanks for all the kind words yesterday. Just been busy with life. Thanks for looking!!!

I took this photo in early January, when my Sony was still brand new. I did not have my other two lenses yet so this was shot with the kit lense. Know that I have been reading and learning so much from you guys I can see the error of my ways. I did play with the color in pse 4 and I sharpened it twice.

Thanks for looking!!!!

Hi everyone this little guy has a story. I am a librarian and one day someone came in and said they needed a picture of the whole armor of God. First I was like what kinda of crazy question is that? But I did find find a drawing in a book that gave her the information she wanted. The question made me think about what the Whole Aromor of God was and that I needed to have that in my life. So, about a month after that question I found a church to join and have felt that God has really been protecting me since then. A good friend of mine joined the same church I joined and she gave me that bear as a Christmas gift.

Ok, guys I had the hardest time with this. I have been working on this for two days. But I am learning so much that I don't mind. I took these photos in raw and am learning how to work with the editing program. I am using the RAW editing program that came with the camera, I cannot seem to get the RAW to work in PSE 4 so if anyone has any tips on that I would appreciate it. Also had a hard time posting the photos because the files were so large. I know I lost some quality when I made the photo ready for the web. I bought a foam board at Michaels to use as a background and my dining room table cloth. Oh by the way this is a cookie jar that I bought a few years ago, it looks tiny but it is a nice size cookie jar.

Thanks for looking!!!!
