Volume IV

Brendan, can you show Mommy the dog?

Why, yes you can! And since this picture was taken you can now show Mommy the kitty and the bird, too.

Volume III

This isn't the only picture I took on manual this week. But this is all I have time for. Our household goods were delivered this morning and there is a house full of boxes waiting for me.



Volume II

The sun was pouring light into our front door last week so I played around with the camera and this is what we got.

For some reason, I really love this one. I'm not sure if it's his chunky legs (which I adore) or the hint of a smile (I think he was looking at Sophie the cat) but, nonetheless, I love this one.

Why is this one so fuzzy?

In addition to being a complete novice at photography, I also know nothing about "photoshopping" pictures. Our newest computer came with 30 days of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 and I'm trying to figure out how to use it. Helpful tips would be greatly appreciated. My camera also came with an editing program but it seems much more difficult to navigate.

The rest of these are unedited.

Volume I

All shot at Kurashiki Dam. As you can see, there is much work to be done. But it's a start.
