Texas Style Pet

They say everything is bigger in Texas...guess that goes for pets as well. For those of you not from the Lone Star State let me give you some background on this pic.

My husband and I were on our way home from shopping at Pottery Barn and spotted this guy. We live in the burbs, not the country. Some people have pastures as front yards (there goes that big thing again). He was just grazing away and didn't even flinch as I stood there and took several pictures. I liked this one the best because you can see how beautiful his horns are.

Also, thanks baby for being such a good sport and turning around so I could photograph him.

Brunch

Homemade Banana Waffles with fresh strawberries and bananas with sausage and strong coffee. Enjoyed with the love of my life, my husband. Perfect start to a beautiful day.

Baby girl does not like the Flash

It was my first night with my new camera so I was shooting anything that moved. This picture makes me laugh because I called her and she looked right at me so sweet, then the flash went off and she closed her eyes.

In honor of our Fellow Swedes

Well my husband is half Swedish and his people came from Finland, that makes up the ethnicity of many of our favorite players on the Wings. Here are some shots from the game last night. BTW - yeah Dallas won last night but the Wings will win the series. First of all no team has come back from a 3-0 series in 33 years. Only two teams have done it in the history of the NHL. Also, Marty Turco hasn't won a single game at the Joe...nuff said.

I am happy with the speed of this camera. I also like that is has continuous mode for action shots. The ISO was too high in some of these pics for my liking, need to adjust that manually next time.

Bjorn Foto is back!!

Okay, so I got a new camera. I decided to wait on the DSLR and went with the Nikon S600. It has some really cool features and as you will see I am learning how it works in different shooting conditions. If you have one and have any tips for it let me know. My first outing with it was a sporting event. And not just any sporting event...Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals Dallas Stars vs. Detroit Red Wings. As you will be able to tell from the pics I will post our house cheers for the red & white.

I am really looking forward to getting things going again with my new camera. Hope you enjoy.

My Camera Broke :-(

My Camera is broken. I am trying to decide if I want to spend money to fix it or invest in a new one. I REALLY want a DSLR. Just don't know if I can afford one.
