Playing with the new camera

I felt pretty lucky because I was able to get into a local 2 1/2 hour intro to DSLR photography class right after I got my camera and lenses.  I am SO glad I took it because I was able to learn some basics that have helped me to shoot without using the complete auto settings.  Our instructor recommended that we shoot in Aperture Priority and I have decided I am going to force myself to do just that until I can appropriately set the camera the first time and not after many test shots.  I'm getting better, but still need lots of practice.  

So here's a short photo shoot I did with my girls right after church a couple weeks ago.  Really this wasn't the best time of day, but I didn't want to have to change them into dresses again later in the day when the light was more favorable.  So you get what you get!



Yup, you get what you get!  Here is the true O'sie!


Hey girls, why don't you peek from behind the tree.  (O'sie has her own plan, but Jenna's going to make it work!)


Catch me if you can!
