The birth of my infatuation or perhaps I should say my obsession with photography began in the mid nineties. Then my main subjects were my children, since my children have left the nest for many years now my passion for photography has never faded but rather grown in a different direction. I have discovered that beauty is never ending, taking on forms that I could have never imagined. I feel blessed that my world has expanded through photography and hope my passion never weakens.

What Was I Thinking?

So I was viewing a video course on the Canon 60d that I am oh so wanting desperately, when one of the segments was on flash exposure. I had taken the photo on the left without a flash because with the flash I kept blowing out the snowman. I forgot totally that I can control the flash exposure. So I dialed the flash exposure as far down as I could and the result is what I got on the right. What a difference wouldn't you say? I need to spend time going over the basics again. I'm amazed at how much I have forgotten.
