Just for the fun of it!

I have for some time wanted a small point and shoot just for fun to carry with me. I in no way could give up my love for my Nikon SLR, but for just goofing off I got me a Canon SD900 Power Shot Elph. I love it, it's small and just fun to play with! Saturday my husband and I took off for our fave Chinese spicy noodles at the Panda Delite in Arlington and then off for a short drive. Here are just a few pix I took that day with my SD900.

This is the cheapest I have seen gas in a very long time! This was 20 miles or so from our place, we were 30 cents higher, Now does that even make sense? We were in Jerry's diesel truck, so this didn't help me. Yummy Spicy Noodles! Love Them!

Quackers!

While scouting locations last week, I came across this apple orchard with a small pond next to it. I no sooner stopped and up popped these ducks. They all started quacking and came right over to me. I had just been to the store and had a loaf of bread with me. So I thought I'll give them some. There was one who had this tuft of feathers on top of its head, he stayed right at my feet. When I wasn't feeding him as fast as he wanted he would peck my toes then look up at me, like to say speed it up!

Here he is getting my toe!

Back Road

One afternoon last week I took a drive to scout out a place I had seen a while back. A road where the trees meet over the road. I love places like this. It was very pretty, I miss the fall colors that you get back home in the mid west. We really don't get much of a fall here in Texas, but my hubby loves the winters here.

A few misc. pix from the shoot in Springtown last weekend.

It was just beautiful up there, I miss being out in the country.

Down by the creek.

Loved the gate with the vines.
Close up of the flowers on the vine.
Very pretty and lacy.

I don't remember this kitty's name but look at those blue eyes!

I love this sepia tone pix of Copper, he looks so serious but with a half grin!

Helen & Gary 10/11/2008

I didn't take as many pictures as I wanted at Helen and Gary's reception, but I managed to get a few. It was a beautiful wedding and the reception was also. I ended up with some major flash problems, I was so thankful I was not the photographer for this wedding.

Wisper and Copper - Buds

Wisper is Tiffany and Aaron's niece and she joined us for a while on our shoot Saturday. Here are a few of my faves of her and some with her and Copper.
I found this girl stunning, I would love to do a very non traditional shoot with her, maybe something in a old building or barn with vintage clothes.

These two are buddies!

I think this one is sweet.
