Look who's learning to use her camera!

I have always loved taking pictures.  Recenlty, I was inspired by The Pioneer Woman to really learn how to use my camera.  So, wonder of wonders, I actually read my user manual for my camera.  Who would have ever guessed it could hold such a wealth of information?  Not I!  I mean, after all, it's only the user manual.  What could it possibly tell me?  Umm...well...yeah...

With this new wealth of information about my camera I rounded up the girls for an adventure.  Half way into it the girls were calling it "the long journey."  Here's a few of my favorites.

These are all just straight out of the camera shots, no editing.  I'm not good enough for that yet, haha!  I still have a lot to learn, some of these shots got a little dark, but the good news is that now I know how to experiment with that and like all things practice makes perfect!
