Foggy Sunrise – bp4u presets

Filed Under: Photography

Yesterday morning I glanced out my front door and the foggy sunrise was gorgeous. I grabbed my D600 and headed out the door and across our yard. Lately I have really been trying to take more photos with my DSLR instead of just with my phone. By the way do you follow me on Instagram? Would love for you to follow and say Hi! I am trying to get to 2,000 followers then I am going to do a giveaway on there! I am getting close.

Foggy Sunrise

foggy sunrise | bp4u lightroom presetsI took these photos in RAW then I imported them to Lightroom. I then used Presets from BP4U Ultimate Season Bundle. I am really loving all the presets that the bundle provides. They include Lightroom Presets for each season. Which is great, because I think the different season photos should be edited uniquely. Of course for these photos I used all Presets from the Spring Collection. My favorites have been Warm Days. I also like to use their Highlight Reducer and Shadow Lifter.

foggy sunrise | bp4u lightroom presetsThe thing I like about Lightroom is I can edit one photo with a few different presets. Then choose the other photos I want to edit, go up to Settings and pick Sync Settings. Works so quickly. I have my Lightroom set up to Export as a JPEG, then open directly in Photoshop. I do any other small adjustments and cloning in Photoshop. I am just more comfortable in Photoshop with some things. I also resize and sharpen in Photoshop. I know Lightroom can do that but for some reason I can not get used to it.

Where to find BP4U:

Have you tried any products from BP4U? What are your favorite Lightroom Presets?

I was given these Lightroom Presets to try out. No other compensation was given.

    Such beautiful images Sarah! I thought the presets were only applicable for Lightroom but I think you have proven here that they can be used still.

    I would love to have a new camera to take better pics. The one I have is OLD. So I really don't take pictures like I used to. I had a really nice one but it is broken now.

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.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.

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.

I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendro I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendron white wizard when I first got it, I also didn’t give it enough sunlight. So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.

Annelyn is loving her new hair cut and loving her hair straightened. Swipe for some adorable photos, she came up with all her own poses. Also the very last photo is her hair before, it was a hot mess. Mollie cut off 3-4 inches and it looks much healthier now.
