20/365

This cute little fella spent the afternoon in our backyard.  I got out the kit zoom for this one.  I shot a few photos from inside to get a little of the window frames for a more interesting composition, but this little guy blends with the fence so well that the sun's reflection on my embarrasingly dirty window (this window is D's favorite place to spot bugs and is covered with little fingerprints) made it almost impossible to spot the rabbit in those photos.  Camoflage at it's finest.

19/365 Library

Today's photo is again in black and white, not because I felt it adds to the photo this time, because I did not take the time in the library to custom white balance.  I'm still trying to get over some of the weirdness of getting out the camera in public places where people don't normally take photos.

18/365

Baby A's enjoyment of learning to roll over last week kept him happy about 10 seconds, it seems.  Now he rolls around and is mad on his back and mad on his tummy.  He tries to get his knees under him and he is ready to go places.  I think he may not be the most patient little person and, while he's generally easy going, when he is mad he shows a bit of a temper.

Today's photo is black and white, again.  Did I mention I love black and white?  I should have bumped my ISO to 800, though.

14/365

I am trying to figure out in the second photo how much haze is too much.  I'm thinking I should have moved to the right of D a little so his head would have blocked a little more of the sun and so the side of his head wouldn't have been blown out (although I was already laying as close to the sand box as I could since it's under his playset...so it wasn't really possible to move more right, but if it had been possible it would have made a better shot)  I also guess I could have cropped out the blown out part, but I already have an awkward limb shot at his wrist...oops.
