My little sister

I don't feel like blogging but I just can't take this sad music on here anymore. I'm feeling obsessed about coming online and looking at pictures of my dog but I can't stand it. I need to think about something else for a while and stop feeling so guilty about him.

Oh, and THANK YOU for all your kind, sweet comments. They REALLY did make me feel better.

This was a practice session with my little sis and the d200. We drove around trying to find somewhere we could get some good backlighting. The sun set faster than I expected and I ended up stopping in a cul de sac and lucky for me, she was happy to pose in the middle of this street and not care who was watching, lol.

Clara joined in the fun too.

More texture here and I should have turned her hands in so you only see their profile.

Look at the focus here! I LOVE this camera's accurate focus!!!

Clara with her AUntie again. Clara loves her so much, she has called her Happy Day for a long time. She couldn't say her real name so she called her Happy, which morphed into Happy Day, lol.

Love the new captures. I'd love to talk shop with you too. Tell me all about the camera. What made you make the jump? Do you create your own textures? I've been trying to learn how to make them. Suggestions?
