"Photography, to me, us catching a moment which is passing, and which is true."
- Jacques-Henri Lartigue
True, indeed, is the beauty of God's creation. When taking a photo of a dazzling sunset, a flowing river, a beautiful flower - any of these things - it is the true beauty of God, captured through the lens of a camera.
Well, well, well. I have some apologies to make. I know I haven't posted in a long time, and I'm sorry about that. I've been trying to save up for a new camera... and I finally got it! It is the newest Canon camera of the Rebel series, the T5. I've had so much fun taking photos with it, and with Lightroom available again, I can now view the RAW files on our Windows computer. ;) Ready or not, here come the pictures! :D

| I was in the car, and I had my camera, eager to take pictures. (The excitement of my "new" camera hasn't worn off yet, if you can't tell ;) ) It started to rain, so I started to mess with the manual focus and DOF (depth of field) of my camera. I tried to get the raindrops in focus and the background out of focus. If you can tell, one car in the opposite lane has their blinker on, so one light is shining. :) |

| My sister and I had a dentist appointment on our city square, and while my sister (Kendra) got her teeth checked out, I took it as a photo-op. Bein only a couple of days after I got my camera, I was extremely excited about it. :) Our city has a neat little old-time square in downtown, and it has some pretty cool alleys and old buildings. This picture was inspired by a picture I had seen taken at the same place for someone's family portraits. I thought It would be cool to see the way the bricks look as they get farther away. |

| This photo was taken of our mailbox the day that I got my camera (What an exciting day!). :) One of the biggest perks that I saw in DSLR cameras over other cameras is the focus points and DOF. I was playing around with the words on our mailbox and liked getting them in and out of focus. It was a cool experience and I'd love to try more photo adventures with a similar concept. |
I really hope you enjoyed the pictures. Comment and tell me which one you liked the best! A lot has happened since I last blogged, but I can't tell it all right now. :D There will be stories by pictures in later blogs. ;) I hope to pick up my weekly blogging again, but we will have to see how that goes. I have "graduated" from Junior High School (8th grade) and will begin High School in August :) Other than that, I don't have much to say right now. Hopefully you enjoyed this blog, and maybe you will look again next week to see a new blog ;D. Later, friends!
