Freezing a moment...

My first assignment was to go on a 'Walkabout' and "expand 'my' senses..." and to simply "listen and see and record". I also had to take a self-portrait which I utterly procrastinated about since I don't like photographs of me at the best of times. Lucky for me there was a lunar eclipse which was a welcome distraction, so I could procrastinate some more before the assignment due date. I don't really remember how I managed to get these two pictures of the moon. To be honest it was very late (and so cold). I don't even own a great zoom lens but somehow the stars were shining on me that night. The first one was easier as I took it when we were driving home at about 8 pm on Saturday, January 19th. My children spotted the rainbow-like circle encasing the bright moon. Then the following night - at nearly 1 am - my husband yelled at me to hurry up and get outside and to bring my camera. I had already started getting ready for bed so I rushed out with just a thin t-shirt and I am surprised my hands stayed steady enough to capture the eclipse! It was definitely worth it though I'm not sure whether I successfully froze a moment in time or if I froze myself, especially as the following morning I decided to walk around our front yard because the frost was so beautiful. I really should learn to dress more appropriately for the weather but I was more worried about losing the moment as the light can change so quickly, so there I was in just a t-shirt again! I spotted these pretty leaves edged in frost, and the last picture is actually of my car. I love frosty mornings. They can make the most unexpected objects beautiful.

    It's a start...

    I have never blogged before, but here I am starting a blog mainly because I have to for a Digital Photography class I am taking. At first I felt reluctant because I don't like feeling exposed. Excuse the pun. I love taking photographs, and especially of my children, but do I know what I am doing? No. Not at all but I hope to soon. I know this will be a wonderful and frustrating and despairing and amazing journey and who knows where it may lead. Can't wait!
