Project 365 – Clover, Lilacs, Sunsets, Geese and Weeds!

Last week was a pretty nice week for taking pictures! It just flew by and I missed a couple of days, but oh well!

I found this huge clover in a patch of weeds in my yard. It was like a gaint compared to the rest of them! Taken with my 50mm lens: f/1.4; 1/640 sec.; ISO-100.

Some of my beautiful lilacs. I wish you could smell them… their fragrance is heavenly! Taken with my 50mm lens: f/1.4; 1/125 sec.; ISO-100.

This is in the parking lot of Albertson’s! I was in the car waiting for Aaron when I noticed the gorgeous sunset. One of the lucky few times I had my camera with me! (No, I don’t carry my camera with me wherever I go! I wish I was one of those people, but seriously… life, with two little girls, happens and I don’t always remember to bring it!)

Taken with my 50mm lens: f/1.4; 1/400 sec.; ISO-100.

Saturday my sister, Misti, and I went to the park to shoot a new photography video for our website, OpenScrapbook. (It will be coming very soon! Keep your eyes out for it! :) ) There were geese everywhere! We saw this momma and her babies coming out of the pond. I caught this little guy shaking off the water!

Taken with my 50mm lens: f/2; 1/4000 sec.; ISO-100.

Sunday we drove out to Aaron’s parents house for Mother’s Day. On the way I noticed the beautiful sunset and the gorgeous light it was throwing everywhere! All the plants were just glowing! I asked Aaron if would mind stopping so I could snap a few pictures. (To many of you, that would be no big deal! But for me, it is! I never ask to stop anywhere to take pictures…I always plan trips to go shoot. But I’m trying to be more spontaneous so I don’t miss anymore great photos!)

Taken with my 50mm lens: f/1.4; 1/500 sec.; ISO-100.

I just LOVE these shots. Especially the geese, so cute! And perfect timing.
I love my 50mm f/1.4 so much… such a great lens.
