Photo of the week

Photobucket
Lens: 50 mm f/1.8
Info: f/4, 1/200, ISO 400


I almost didn't post this week. But then I thought I couldn't give up on my project 52 after only 6 weeks. So a picture of my son it is. He's a cutie :)

I promise some knitting content later this week.

I don't like this picture, but it was the only one I had for last week. The whole family has been SICK with gastro last week. Boo. Let's just say that taking pictures was the last thing on my mind.

So I ended up taking this pic of my son's music box. I don't like the black frame behind it, but my Photoshop skills aren't good enough for me to clone it out, so there you go. Hopefully next week's pic will be better.

Photo of the week

Week4
Lens: 50 mm f/1.8
Info: 1.8 - 1/60 - ISO 1600


I didn't take many pictures last week but I really liked that one, even though I had to bump up the ISO because there were no light in his room.

I'm sorry for the lack of post last week. I had planned on posting a FO, but the O didn't get F after all. I'm planning on finishing it this week for sure, so I should post pics later this week.

I really wanted to try and take a picture of something other than my son. Last week was COLD, but it was also really beautiful. I took this pic right in front of my house.

I went a little bit Photoshop-happy for this, but hey, I have a picture for the week :)

I promise a post about knitting this week!

TO SANDRA: Thanks for the comment on my last pic! I wanted to reply but I don't have your email. I appreciated the tips :)

Ok so I'm very interested in learning about photography. I read about it. I took an intro class. I got a new lens for Christmas that I love (the 50 mm f/1.8 used above) and a cute little subject I can take tons of pictures of.

But the truth is: I suck. Haha. I can take a good snapshot here and there but I feel I don't have "the eye", when it comes to photography. I'm not an artist and you know what? That's ok. And that doesn't mean I can't get better. But to get better, I need to practice.

I've been toying with the idea of trying Project 366 this year, but to be honest, I can't see myself keeping up with it the whole year. But then I heard of Project 52. One picture a week for 52 weeks. Or 51 in my case since I'm one week late to the party. THAT I think I can do.

So there you go, my only goal for this project is to post one picture a week. I can't promise you'll see good ones, but I'm hoping I can see at least a little bit of progress between now and December. I can, however, promise that 90% of my pics are going to be of my son. But he's cute so that's ok :)
