It's summer and it's finally getting hotter and humid.  We have been having lots of rain so everything is super green which I love.  I have been working on several projects and full of ideas but struggle when it comes to the written word and what to share here.  If you are reading, what do you want to hear from me?  Do you want me to just share pictures?  Talk about what I do each week?  Share my process or how to's?  I'm curious to know.  I'd love to make this blog a regular part of my routine but I often sit and stare at blank, don't know what to write and then just post a picture or abandon.  So please let me know.

Since I am a photographer and this is my blog, I must share some photographs. :-)  This is from yesterday.  I noticed the pond had lily pads in it and had to go back to photograph.  A storm was coming so I didn't have any time to plan out hair or makeup.  It was grab the gear and go and I'm glad I did.  Yu an se how green everything is, which is a stark change from last years heat wave and drought when everything was brown.

And to stick with the green theme, here is a photograph from last year that I recently re-edited as my editing style and skills are continuously changing.  Always be learning, right?  The top is the before and below you can see the new version.  I darkened the greens, removed the distracting foreground plants and made the light more interesting.

Re-Edit

That's all I have for today.  Let me know what YOU want to see here.  Have a fantastic week!
