God's Little Creations

About a month ago, I decided to learn about photography. In the process, I made the decision to retire my trusty Cannon Point and Shoot and upgrade to a SLR. After hours of research and countless conversations, I took one last picture with ole faithful and purchased my first SLR digital camera. I still have no clue how to use this “complex” gadget; but each afternoon I go straight home, change into my play clothes and practice my new hobby. If only my mom were waiting for me with an afternoon snack!

I wanted to share a few of my practice shots from yesterday afternoon (fellow cameramen go easy on me). After such a harsh winter, these beautiful crisp flowers are starting to bloom signaling the first sign of new life in our yard. I find these pictures so appropriate as we continue to celebrate Holy Week.
