It’s Sunday again.
Can you believe it?
Weekly Winners was created by Lotus.
You can see all of the wonderful participants over at her blog.
I didn’t take alot of photos this week and what I did take were nothing to write home about. You see, the beauty of doing a photography course is the steep learning curve and the fact that you are stepping outside of your comfort zone, in trying new things, like pushing your dial to “M” and having to dial up iso and shutter speed and f. stop. The bad thing about doing a photography course is that because you are out of your comfort zone, your photos are awful. I think I prefer “P” mode and just playing with iso myself. I certainly lack confidence having to think the f. stop out but we live and we learn, right?
Anyway, on with the show…

More evidence of boys and girls co existing.
Noah was quite upset that Ivy had put the flowery hat on his Thomas. He carried on a treat.
“No, Ivy! Thomas doesn’t wear a pretty hat!”
Ivy would whisk the hat off the funnel and dance away. As soon as Noah wasn’t looking, it was back on. When I asked her why Thomas had a hat on, her reply was - “So he doesn’t get sunburnt”.
Of course.

I love having a husband who works for Canon. He was able to borrow a fixed lens with a 1.2 f stop
All of these photos were taken at night (hence all the sleeping people) with nothing but a bedside lamp for lighting. No flash.
Amazing.

Wedded bliss.

Tucked in for the night…well, at least until 11pm, when she makes her nightly trek into my bed.

This is a terrible photo but I love the way they sleep. She is using his tummy for a pillow and he has his legs and arms always touching her.
The big girls used to be the same, in their early twin years.

Heart, hands and stomach.

This morning, we were pretending to be policemen.
This is their “Starsky & Hutch” look.
Move along, nothing to see.

His future’s so bright…

Last night we went to a) my first 40th and b) my first ever cocktail party.
This is a self portrait of me with the birthday girl, Liz.
