I ♥ Faces - "At The Beach"

Well, I'm back to I ♥ Faces this week. It's been a bit because I've been pretty busy. I'm rejoining this week because well I have a LOT of beach pictures and wanted to share one. Here is one of a tender moment between this brother and sister. Devin and Avry don't always get along but I was lucky enough to catch a moment where they did. Enjoy!

There's going to be a LOT of great entries this week so be sure and check them out at www.iheartfaces.com! Thanks for checking out mine!

Week 19 - Blurb Photo Contest (Amateur)

So, our challenge this week was to pick our very best closeup face photo. It was an easy pick for me. This was one of my very first photos with my new camera and it literally brought me to tears when I saw it on the screen on my camera and then I DID cry when I got it downloaded. It's of my beautiful daughter, Hope. I love how messy her hair is and how you can see the tear coming from her eye (spent the day at the beach before this photo). I just love everything about it.

There's going to be a LOT of great entries this week so be sure and check them out at www.iheartfaces.com! Thanks for checking out mine!

I am submitting this photo into the www.iheartfaces.com Blurb Book photo contest. I am granting I ♥ Faces permission to use my photo in a printed version of a book for commercial use and possibly advertising of a photo book on both the Blurb and I ♥ Faces web sites.

I ♥ Faces - Reflection

Here is my entry for the Kids - Reflection contest.

We went to Sea Life park today and caught this one of Hope against the viewing tank. We all had a blast and I was happy to catch this one during our outing.

I ♥ Faces - "Amateur - Spring"

Here is my entry for the special 'amateur' category on I ♥ Faces this week. I'm SO excited to enter this photo because it's the 2nd amazing photo I took with my brand new camera. I've been trying to learn as much as I can since I got it 3 weeks ago. I knew when I took this picture it was a good one.

It's definitely a spring photo - but we live in Hawaii so spring is like a muted summer, which is nice :)

I Heart Faces - Constructive Feedback Friday

I would really like SOOC advice on my photo so I purposely chose not to do any editing to it (and choose a not so great shot) - I hope this is ok!. I live in Hawaii and with a lot of direct sunlight, on very sunny days, there tend to be a lot of shadows on photos I take when the weather isn't overcast. This photo is a bit noisy when you zoom in as well. I would LOVE advice on how to prevent some of this SOOC and then post editing fixes. Thanks in advance!

I'm still in the process of learning (the camera is 2 weeks new) and reading like mad!

Nikon 300D - f/5.6 - time 1/16000/sec - ISO 320 - no flash - focal length 55mm

Lots of people asking for feedback today on Feedback Friday - check it out!
