Skywatch Friday

 

To achieve a sun burst make sure you have a narrow f/stop, like a 22 or the highest your lens can handle. A good way to think about this, if you squint towards a light source you will see a star burst. So the smaller opening in your lens the more star burst you will see.

and then, she {snapped}

Yay for fresh eggs. Dustyn actually ate eggs. He hadn’t had them in a while. He loved it.

Spring is here!

This is so neat looking. Anyone know if those are actual leaves?

    Very fun pictures! I can't wait to see more flower pics as spring goes on. I believe that the funky leaves is a maple tree. =)
