Photo Friday - er I mean Sunday!

So life got a little bit away from me this week, and with all the distraction and excitement of the Olympics, I forgot to update the blog world on my 365 project - so without further delay, here are the photos!

UW Arboretum - 2.6.10
After an engagement shoot at the UW Arboretum, one of my favorite Madison shooting locations, Brian and I spent some extra time and took a few more pictures. What is always surprising to me is how different this location looks in every season!

Since my theme for February is things that I love, it would not be complete with out these three people. They are our lifegroup leaders and their son, and they are such great mentors and friends in our lives. This was taken at our Super Bowl Party, where I made everyone take a pic in my "photo booth". Thanks for humoring me guys!

I don't particularly "love" shoveling, but I do love the camaraderie it brings to our neighborhood. We always end up talking to and meeting more and more of our neighbors every time we are out.

I got a new camera on this day, and so I took a few of my very first DSLR. I was reflecting back at how awesome I thought that camera was, just two years ago, before I knew anything about manual mode, lenses, ISO, aperture, or even how to run a business. Getting a new professional level camera has really made me realize how far I've come!

Being a morning person, I particularly like sunrises, and I loved the way the sun was catching on all the snowbanks.

I LOVE popcorn. Like go to a movie just for the popcorn kind of love. Here is a huge batch of kettle corn I made for the opening ceremonies of the Olympics.

  1. I still don't really know how to use my DSLR to its full potential. What is ISO??

  2. Maybe we'll have to have a mini class :) The ISO is the camera's sensitivity to light. So, the higher the ISO, the more sensitive it is to light. This is especially handy in low light situations, so you can bump up the ISO to get a better exposure. In bright light, the ISO should be low (100 or so) seeing as there is enough light out.
