Experimenting with Camera Features

The nice thing about our new camera is that it's very easy to do basic photography.  However, it's also loaded with features to allow you to be a little more creative.  Here are a few styles I have tried.....not too bad for a novice!

Scout Camping - Rainey Mountain Scout Reserve

Last weekend was "family campout" at Rainey Mountain which is up near Clayton, GA in the Blue Ridge Mountains.  Very fun place - great set up for kids.  We just camped 1 night - too busy with other activities to stay 2.  This was Marco's first time "tent" camping.  He loved it.

West Forsyth Lacrosse U 11 Blue - Season Finale

Diego's Lacrosse team played in the Roswell invitational tourney this weekend.  They had a very good season.  We were very proud of the boys.  Diego has "found his sport".  He loves Lacrosse and is already talking about playing in the fall season.  Diego managed to score a few goals this season, and even took home a couple of "game balls".  Here are some pictures from the past 2 weeks games.

Talladega Spring 2010

I took Brianna, Diego, and Marco to the Spring Race at Talladega recently.  It was a really fun time.  That complex is HUGE - lots of walking.  I estimate probably 3.5 miles round trip from car to seats and back to car.  Somehow, Marco made it without any fuss.  We actually stayed through the end of the race (Brianna usually gets bored but she requested to stay to the end).
