Thanksgiving


This is very late, but I thought I should put together my Thanksgiving photos! Better late than never. I'm afraid I don't have a photo of every family member that was there. I'm not big on taking photos for the sake of taking photos, so I've just put together my favorites. :)



Look at that cute pink cheek. :)










The photo above is of Griffin sharpening his knife. He was also drinking wine. Logan poured one too many tiny cups of wine, so we gave it to Griffin. I thought it was a comical shot.



Griffin's bloody delicious baguettes above, and an awesome apple pie below!












Sara's chocolate mousse/pudding pie! So good. Paula Deen recipe.

Thanksgiving was lovely. I hope that we have many more like it. 


a warm, foggy day


These photos are from November 21st. Quinn and I walked up and down part of our road, enjoying the oddly warm but foggy day. 


We brought along some Trader Joe's peanut butter cups for company. :)


















I notice that a lot of bloggers I follow seem to find and take photos of cats while on their walks. We find horses. And the occasional cow. Oh, and if we walk two roads down, we find herds of buffalo, donkeys, and ostriches. It's quite a zoo out here!

the detail



Today we went for a walk and I started taking photos of the woodpile with my phone. Since my phone camera is more macro-friendly than my 50mm, the shots of some of the wood detail are pretty cool... All the photos here were taken with my iPhone 4s. :)

in black and white



Last year, we took some beautiful pics of the farmland around Danielsville... The rain made last year's pics so foggy and beautiful. This year it was dry and cloudy, so we weren't quite as inspired on our trip yesterday. We'll have to go again in December... Meanwhile, these are some shots from yesterday! I thought it would be nice to do a completely black and white post, so here are the monochrome images. I'll post the colors shots sometime! :)










All shot using my Canon 1D Mark II; the first half with my 50mm, the second half with Logan's 35mm. All shot at f/2.0 or lower. :)

Coming up next: Thanksgiving & some more countryside shots from a walk! I know, so exciting you can barely stand it.
