Photography How-To: Weeks 1&2

In preparation for my someday camera, the Canon DSLR. I am trying to learn more about photography & how to take better pictures with my current Canon PowerShot S90 -- which up until this point in time has been 100% operated in automatic point & shoot mode.

I am following the lessons found on this blog. It is fascinating! https://sites.google.com/site/biowbiow002/twopeas_12week

LESSON ONE: Aperture

f/3.2

f/8

LESSON TWO: ISO & Shutter Speed

ISO 1"

ISO 1/60

ISO 1/1600

About Roxy

Our little preschooler is 4 years old, and not so little anymore! She has no problems keeping up with June. The girls spend all their time playing together and they all really seem to enjoy it. They also do a lot of fighting, as is to be expected with sisters so close in age.

She is a little bit like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. She can be the nicest, sweetest little girl, and then bam, she is throwing a fit. We really love her blossoming personality, and she is wicked smart. We couldn't be luckier to have her in our family.

About June

Our 5 year old kindergartner is a princess and pest all wrapped up in a cute little package. She is a real bundle of energy, so curious and into everything, and constantly in motion. She continues to adore her big brother and little sisters, and distributes both kisses and shoves liberally about the house.

She loves learning new things & repeating everything we say back to us. She is constantly talking & asking questions. It is a real joy watching her learn and discover the world around her. She tries so hard to please everyone, to help mom & dad as the "oldest" child, but sometimes her mischievous nature takes her for a ride. And as always she is the life of the party and the game master for her siblings and friends!

About Lincoln

Lincoln is our 7 year old, walking, running & climbing 2nd Grader! He is very sweet, displays quite the sense of humor, and has a huge capacity for love. We love that he is developing his own sense of himself and his personality. Thanks to the Ketogenic diet & several anti-convulsants, he has shown great progress with seizure control and social emotional development. He shares a very special friendship with June, plays with Roxy, and is beginning to show some curiosity about Cora. He gives hugs, snuggles, and pinches freely to anyone within proximity. We continue to celebrate every little moment and milestone that we have with our little man.

When he was 2 months old he was diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex and Infantile Spasms/Epilepsy. This results in multiple daily seizures of various shapes and sizes, as well as medications, restrictive diets, developmental delays, therapists, doctors, and hospital procedures. Despite all of this, he remains one of the best sons a family could ever hope for. We are so proud of him, and lucky to have him in our lives. He is our brave strong son; our little miracle.
