So, my entire month was just MADE..... I have a perma-smile, and an extra spring in my step!
My edit last week for Pixel Perfect's Before/After BlogHop was picked as the winner!
What an awesome way to start off the day! Thanks Monica (and Monica's Husband!)
So, this week, I picked a shot I took from M's birthday party. I'll be posting lots more from it later on..... but for now, a playground shot.
I was trying to get a cute photo of my boys together, but the mixture of excitement, energy, and sugar made it VERY hard for M to sit still for 1/200th of a second!
So, my before, SOOC
M had moved, but I LOVE the way D looks in this shot. Calm, placid moments are few and far between with a teen. When I pull out my camera to shoot D, I usually get silly faces, not priceless captures.
Here's after editing in Lightroom2 and CS4
I love it. I think I may frame this one and hang it up.
This was the closest to getting a nice photo of my boys together that I got for the day.....
Oh, M was full of it that day! lol.
So anyway, come check out Monica's edit at Pixel Perfect
add your own to the linky, and see all the other amazing photo talent!
