Horses/horseback riding

Last week my mom, anna, my nieces, and I went out to see my horse and ride our friend's horse. It was a lot of fun even though my mom was to chicken to ride the horse all by herself so she had our friend lead her around.  

For some odd reason I really like the next 4 pictures. They are just nice and clear, and some are odd angles of them.

Land of Giants

We were to take pictures of ourselves (which I HATE doing) and then take a picture of something else with the same angle and lighting. We had to make ourselves really small and put us in the background or the other way around. I made myself small. I took pictures of my horse and wanted to put me of him but I couldn't get good angles of them, so I out myself in a plant.

This is the color version. My foot I couldn't get it to go any darker but besides that I think it looks good.

 Here is the black and white version.

Easter

On Saturday night I got to play Easter bunny for my nieces. On Sunday they were up at the crack of dawn because they were so exited to find all their goodies. I made them wait a little while and wouldn't let them go down stairs for about an hour. I made them wait  because I knew it would just "kill" them and I could get an extra hour of sleep. Finally I said go ahead and raced them down the stairs. It was a lot of fun!

 McKenna finally found the big box of chalk and a plastic egg.

 Looking for eggs. I see one.

 She found a chocolate bunny in here last year so he thought the "bunny" would be dumb and hide everything in the same spot again, she was wrong.

 McKenna's basket with all the eggs she found.

 Checking to see what she got.

 Seeing what is in her eggs

Checking in ALL the cupboards.

 My aunt's cat Maizy. when she got into the basket I thought she was going to use it as her bathroom because that is what it looked like but then she laid down and slept, she also licked the grass a little bit. Must of tasted like candy.

She looks pretty comfortable.

Detail

For last weekend's shooting assignment we had to shoot detail. We had extra time to shoot it because of the long Easter weekend. I really kind of liked this assignment, I thought it was fun.

 This picture is of a lock in my room. You can see the detail n the wire/metal where it twirls.

 This is a star light in my room. I changed this picture from color to black and white. Even though this picture had a lot of color in it I really like it in black and white. You can see the detail in the twirling of metal and the light inside the star.

 This one is not one of the better photos its a little blurry and I didn't change it to black and white and these pictures I like better in black and white.

 This is another one that I really like and again in black and white.

I Know My ABC's!!!!

For our shooting assignment last weekend we had to find objects and make letters out of them or find letters in them I should say. We could not shoot actual letters and we couldn't physically make them, they just had to be there. It was really hard at first, at least when I was at my moms, when I got to my dad's house it seemed like a piece of cake.

Strawberries

In the past couple of years I have figured out that I do enjoy growing fruits and veggies just because I love being able to eat my own foods that I grew and it also saves money for my dad because I LOVE fruit and veggies, he was buying them ALL the time. So here are my strawberry plants that started coming up in march. After these couple of cold days the leaves started to get brown, but are starting to green up again.

CD

 For my CD I had Punk Rock so I used my niece as a model and decided that my band was called Pajama Llama and my CD was called Acid Love. This is my front cover.

This is my inside cover and I added a filter on the smaller pictures and put the names of the band and CD on it again. 

This is my back cover and I put 3 of the same pictures on here and faded out the first one and then got brighter as they went down.
