Happy Thursday!



I got a new lens for my camera.


@20mm

And now I will have to pick up the floor.

@24mm

Katie will be able to fling her arms in the air like she is wont to do.

And I will most likely get them in the picture.

It's my goal.

35mm


After many tries, I was still able to get a clear, sharp close up.

35mm

See how you can get more of the body in shot.


This will be an especially nice lens to get more than one person in a shot AND it will be great for
vistas and buildings.


50mm


With a wider lens I would be able to shoot Emma this close and also get the WHOLE Eiffel tower in the shot.


Next time I go to Paris, I will take my 17-55mm lens.


The End.


*****


I need to be kinder cause I always feel terrible when I say things like,
that rocker chick made me change the channel,
and then she gets kicked off.

And I feel badly for saying I didn't like her.


You'd think I would learn.


It is hard being a critic.

Let's see...we are going to a indoor garden today.

That should be nice and springy.

I will meet Morning Rose and her children there.

Isn't that cool? I wanted to try some hand lotion she mentioned in the comments and
before you know it, we are meeting for a little flowery fun and a hand lotion purchase :o)

Speaking of spring.....the weatherman says we are in for more snow tonight.

Boo.

Oh! Steph asked in the comments for some homeschooling/parenting advice.

HELP!

Ok. My oldest is 9, 3rd grade curriculum. Middle just turned 5 - so we're doing reading, letters, words. Simple. Not very structured, but it suits him and he's learning.

How do I help my 9 year old get over the sense of injustice he feels that he has to work more and longer than his siblings?? [Youngest is 3.] It's becoming a real problem and I don't really know what to do about it... help! Any ideas?
