30 day photo challenge


So I decided I wanted to challenge myself to taking a photo or few each day for the next 30 days. I want to just try and find new ideas, new lighting tricks, and to just keep myself shooting regularly. This as you can see is a little glimpse into the life of my boys at home. As you can see never a dull moment. :) Gotta love boys!
 




It makes my heart so happy to see Daniel playing again, he had taken a break and I was just waiting to see what God wanted to do.  Personally I think he was born to play.  He is saying that the desire seems to have come back! :)

More editing of photos

Yep today I did some more editing. It still surprises me that if you do something you love for too long it can turn into labor.  I have recognized once again the value of REST.  Whenever I start to get overwhelmed or just DONE with editing, I know it's time to take a break.  If I don't break then I start losing the desire to do things with excellence, cuz I just wanna get done!  I used to hurry and finish those last few prints. Or when painting I would force myself to finish the painting then I would be so bummed with the outcome. Finally I recognized that when I just stopped and waited til the next day all my inspiration would come flooding back and I had a new perspective and joy to finish what I had begun!  I want to always put all of my heart into the work I do and not become lazy or half-hearted in what I do, ever!
