Bubbles

Filed Under: Photography


First of all I wanted to say Thank You to everyone that entered my giveaway. I used random.org to pick the winners. The winner of the hat is #20 Reading Allowed . The winner of my 11×14 leaf print is #2 Lisa’s Chaos. I will be emailing y’all, but if you see this first you can email me. [email protected]. Thanks again. I can’t wait to do more giveaways.


Onto the bubbles, this is from last summer while Dustyn and I were outside playing. He loved them. I took this photo for Faiths SLR class, Freeze motion. I really loved the way it turned out.

Before:

After:

First I applied a soft light layer, then sharpened the actual bubble using Pioneer Woman’s Sharpen This action. Then applied Coffee Shop’s Vintage Honey action and adjusted it to my liking. Then re-sized and sharpened for the web.

Photography love...living in a perry tale

    I love this picture. My son loves playing with bubbles and I would love to have something like this while he is playing. I will have to look closer at my camera to see if it is something I could do too : )!

    First, I am super duper slow and just realized you are the same Sarah from Loving my Life blog. LOL!! So glad you posted that in announcements. I love your photography Sarah! I am a huge fan of vintage photos. Photos saturated with color are fun and happy, but I love vintage with less color and more focus on the subject. I want to learn more about photography, especially since I have the BEST inspiration :) Have a great Tuesday/Wed!

Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropical Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropicalplantsusa. I got it just after Valentine’s Day. I think it is time for a repot. I’m going to wait for the new leaf to harden up and then repot it. I have been super happy with the quality.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.
