Happy New Year!

Hello and Happy New Year! I am starting the new year out with a brand new blog! I took some pictures of my Christmas trees tonight since they will be coming down this weekend. I put up 3 trees, 1 real and 2 fake. The real on is a complete fire hazard right now...very dry! I can never seem to keep them alive for longer than a week :) The second tree is my "Photo Tree". It has tiny silver frames all over it with pictures of my kids in them. The third is the only tree I allow to have colored lights (my kids' favorite). I took these pictures with a very small aperture and long shutter speed to get the starburst effect...no filters. I like how they came out, I am sad they are coming down this weekend :(

About Me

My photo
My name is Heidi and I love taking pictures. It all started when my godfather let me test out his new Nikon D70. I had been using a Sony digital camera and was missing most of the pictures I wanted to take of my kids because of the shutter lag. So I jumped into the world of DSLRs. I bought a D70 and a year later upgraded to aD80 which is what I use now (although I am secretly trying to find ways to afford the D300 or even the D700...what can I sell???). My kids are my favorite subject and I have a bunch of adorable nieces and nephews to photograph. Please check back often and LEAVE A COMMENT! The comments are what keep me going! Thanks and Happy New Year!
