Sunrise

Sunrise, Camel’s Hump over the Farm Barn

Sunrise at Shelburne Farms. Ava and I got up early, got her packed for school and brought coffee and hot chocolate to watch the sun rise alongside Camel’s Hump and over the Farm Barn.

Both ‘HDR’ images done as a test – 3 bracketed shots built right in Lightroom with the Photo Merge> HDR feature. Then manually adjusted before export.

Sunrise with Ava

Ava and I got up early, snagged some hot chocolate and coffee, and watched and photographed the sunrise from Shelburne Farms.

My favorite shot of the morning was just as the sun peaked out from behind Camel’s Hump.

I love these micro adventures with the girls. Scheming and planning for more.

I bracketed most of my shots – so I tried out the Merge>HDR feature in Lightroom.

Snap

A snap Ava took of me. I cropped and ran it through a filter to use on social media.

Photo Walk

The girls got a lesson on my camera last week and I dusted off my old Canon G12 for them to use. Yesterday before school Ava and I scheduled time to explore town and a park on the way to school. I loved watching her look at the world, and teaching her about how cameras (and our eyes) process images.
