Wild & Wonderful Wednesday #1

Welcome to my first ever Wild & Wonderful Wednesday photo link up!  I am excited that you are here!  And I can't wait to see all the wonderful photos you link up this week!


To play along all you need to do is link up your wild and/or wonderful photo(s) from the past week or so.  Wild could be some beautiful flowers, a gorgeous landscape, an adorable critter, or even your wild and crazy kid(s)!  And wonderful could be anything you think is wonderful.  As you can imagine, I'm pretty flexible.  I just want you to show off your incredible photos!

But first, here are a few of my wild and wonderful photos ...


of my wild and crazy Nicholas!  :)

I was looking through photos the other night and noticed that I am lacking in pictures of Nicholas.  Well, good pictures.  Ones where he's not making some goofy face or looking away from the camera.  You know, the normal photos I tend to get of him.  :)

So we set out last evening to remedy that situation.

We had a good time, as you can see.  And got some more goofy faces.  :)



But I think we also got some really good pictures.

And we are both pretty pleased with the photos we got.

I can't decide if I like this one better in color or B&W.  What do you think?

So that's it for me.  Now it is your turn.  Just a few details first ...
1. Grab my button and link up below.
2.  Link up your post URL, not your blog URL.
3.  Try to visit and comment on a few other posts.  We know how much everyone loves comments!
4. Please bear with me while I work out any kinks since this is the first week!  Thanks!  :)


Happy Wednesday!

Photo of the Day: August 24

ISO 800, f/5.6, 1/160s, 18-105mm lens on Nikon D40

This interesting flower is growing amongst my sunflowers and is as tall as the other sunflowers, so I'm guessing it must be a sunflower also.  I've just never seen one like this until this year.

I kind of like it in B&W also.  What do you think?

Baby Nathan

Remember a while back I got the chance to photograph my friend Jen's baby?  Well, now that he is ready to graduate from college, I have finally gotten his photos edited.  :)  Okay, so he's not quite ready to graduate, but it seems like it has been forever!  Life gets in the way of so many things I want/need to do.

Anyway, I wanted to share a few of my favorites.  

If I remember correctly, this blue outfit is a family heirloom of sorts.  Jen's son, Alex, who is now 15 or so, wore it when he was a baby.

I used Pioneer Woman's Soft Faded action on this one.

Jen wanted some photos of Nathan in this 100-year-old gown.  I believe it is also a family heirloom.  I used Nelly Nero's Antique Overlay action on this one ... I think.  :)

Tried to get the whole gown in the photo.  Not easy to do.  I used Pioneer Woman's Vintage action on this one.

Oh, how I love me some baby feet.

I had to get Jen in a photo or two, but I could only get her to put her hand in.  :)

I really enjoyed my first baby photo shoot.  And I learned a lot.  But, of course, I still have MUCH MORE to learn.  Not sure I'd want to do this for a living though.  :)


Thanks, Jen, for the honor!  I hope you like your photos!
