My Least Photographed Kid

April 2, 2014 Molly Leave a comment

Reed is my least photographed kid. For lots of reasons. We don’t spend as much time together as Gus and me. And, Lena loves the camera a bit more.

Still, we can have a lot of fun together. Especially when I just let him be himself and I try to capture who that is. I am finishing the Snapshots to Art Breakout Session from Clickin’ Moms. This is forcing me to focus on more intentional editing and also consider black and white. These images seemed to naturally lend themselves to that purpose.

(that untied shoe is one of my favorites. It’s very him for Spring 2014.)

I thought it might be interesting to also show you a couple of the same photos but in color. I can’t decide which I like more.

The End of March + Changes

April 1, 2014 Molly 2 Comments

March is over. Phew. Spring is REALLY here. That’s a happy thing.

You’ve probably noticed some changes to the look of A Moose in Moscow. If you haven’t already, well, maybe you’re not too observant. 😉 I’ve changed the overall look and I am doing some adding and rearranging of pages. Everything is still here, but you should notice that the pages are now in drop down menus. I hope to add a new category for each of our adoptions, with a page telling the entire story. But, that will take some time to put together.

I definitely need to do catch up and share more of my March photos.

April Must-Capture List:

At least 5 Objects that I touch everyday
April Showers (the rain kind)
Macro (taking photos of little things– like flowers)

Changing Seasons

March 26, 2014 Molly 1 Comment

If you actually pay attention to my Photo 365 page, you’ll notice that I always write a “Must Capture” list for the upcoming month. I try to keep it pretty simple and apart from not getting out for star photos in February, I’ve done a fair job of meeting my goals.

One of my goals for March is to capture the “Changing Seasons”.

My mom informed me yesterday that my daffodils were blooming… shortly before we were supposed to get a “wintry mix”. That’s life in the Midwest. They often say “if you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes.”

I can’t lie– I really enjoyed capturing these. I took these using my extension tubes, like I did with the snowflakes.

I went out both before and during the “wintry mix”.

Bunny, probably as sick of winter as we are.

Thanks for making it through my photo overload!

Roadtrippin’

I don’t announce on here when we go out of town for the obvious reason… safety. So, instead, I’m telling you now that we’re home– we just got back from a roadtrip. I should and will break it up into a few different posts to share where we were, but here’s a few photos from our travels.

Ready to go. He has his cup, his blanket, and his doggie.

… you can also consider this my plug for extended rear facing. Yay for safety. He has a mirror which he is using here to watch himself make funny faces.

Some of our travels.

On the left is a very new bridge. Anyone recognize it?
