Photography

I have dabbled in photography here and there, but have never really "gotten" into it.  I have never had a nice camera, and never took it seriously.  Last spring, I took a free class at a center in Chicago, and it made me realize, that Yes! I can do this.  I started saving for a nicer camera, and my guy got me one for Christmas.  Such a thoughtful and amazing gift.  I have looked at going to more classes while in Rhody, but I have just dabbled with it for now.  Here are some recent photos:

Bella!


She was curious, then just decided to lie down.

Newport Bridge on a brisk January day.

Bridge and the Lighthouse on Goat Island.
I hope I can continue to use this gift now, and in the years to come.  I love documenting my travels, and of course, food!

  2. Hey lady, check out the Pioneer Woman's blog -- she has a ton of intro to photography stuff... all self taught (I think!)

    2. If you've never read that blog before, OMG! You need to go back and start w/ the story of how she became "Pioneer Woman" (aka met her hubby). She's got tons of awesome recipes, but has also started an off-shoot site for followers to post recipes called "Tasty Kitchen". I bet you could post some recipes on there and link it back to your blog.
