Adventures with Dylan
I got to spend most of the day with Dylan on Saturday. We had so much fun together. Let me brag for a minute and just say what a great boy he is, so polite and loving. I am very proud of my big boy!
We ended up at a fabulous spot for photos, but the lighting was a disaster. The bridge was incredibly bright compared to where I was shooting from. We will have to go back again when the sun is less harsh and it's warmer out. It's a fun little spot and I'm sure Dylan would enjoy playing there again.

This is what happened when I tried to get a shot of him exposing closely for his face with the bridge directly behind. We might as well have been in my backyard.

There is the blaring western sun behind him.

And finally a quick shot from the train station. Some western sun from the side here. Brrrrrrrr! It was mighty cold!

Tara - Your photography is beautiful! I just found your blog and I'm so happy I did. It makes my heart sad now when I look at the photos I have of my kids growning up. (They are now 26 and 24!) Maybe some day I will have grandchildren and can take photos of them. I better get out my camera (Canon Elan - film!) and learn about photography. What camera/lens do you use?
Thanks for the nice comment. I use the Canon 5D and the lens I use most of the time is the 85mm 1.8. Start today! There are so many moments in life to capture. :)
