This week at I Heart Faces the theme is hands! I love this picture. I caught Summer playing on the piano one day in January. I love her sweet, chubby little hands making sweet music!

My Best of 2009!

by Michelle on December 31, 2009

in Uncategorized,photography

Well, this is my last post of this year! It’s a little hard to believe that tomorrow is 2010! I am very excited for the new year though. I’ll be starting my Project 365 tomorrow and working on my 2010 Goals

I’ve been inspired by many blogging friends to post my best photos of 2009. It was fun looking back through the year and seeing how my photogrpahy has changed, the stages my post-processing has gone through! I’m pretty confident I can say that my post-processing skills have improved! I had to laugh at some of the things I did then. I’m sure in a year I’ll be giggling at what I’m doing now! It’s all part of the learning process and I hope I never stop learning!

Here are my Best Photos of 2009, and some blog posts in case you missed them, starting at the beginning of the year. I have to warn you, there’s a lot! It was hard narrowing it down!
