With George's first exam a week away from today, my weekends have become increasingly repetitive. Not complaining though as it means I have been able to really focus on photography. (It also means I get to hang out with the gorgeous Megan, sipping on coffees and chatting away until the late afternoon). When I first got my Nikon for my birthday last year (11 months ago today) I was so completely overwhelmed with everything about it that I rarely ever took it off "automatic".
Finally I have been getting used to it and I haven't put it on the auto setting once this year. I'm obviously not a professional but I am so happy that I now understand what things like aperture and ISO mean. A long way to go but these weekends of solo photography adventures are definitely helping.

well, i personally think you are doing a MARVELOUS job at it! (and i am jealous!!)
Wonderful summer pictures :-) xoxo
Your pictures are always beautiful! I got my first DSLR for Christmas and have yet to take it off automatic...it's so intimidating! Did you get any kind of book or manual to learn?
I wish we could have a photography date.
Wouldn't it be the best?
Also. You and your shoes are the cutest.
lovely :) I, too, have just begun turning the camera off automatic.. it's nice to be able to take photos and not have to edit them- yours are perfection!
i am sort of in the same boat as you photography wise. the book understanding exposure helped me a lot.
your pictures are beautiful! great shot of megan.
Oh xD I know what you mean! Although I don't use automatic anymore I still don't really know what I'm doing - there's SO much to learn!
But your pics are fab, so I think you're doing a great job :) x
I'm planning to purchase a camera for my birthday next month - do you like your Nikon? What kind is it? The photos look great!
you take amazing pictures! i love all of the colors

I'm no expert but I think your pictures are getting better and better. Especially as a lot of what you shoot is ordinary British life and you manage to make it look interesting and pretty! That's not always easy... Lou x
these photos are lovely, pretty and beautiful. love them!

Don't underestimate your abilities - your photos are some of my favorite on the internet, always so pretty and compelling.
Cute shoes. : )

You do take lovely photos:) I've had my canon for 3months now...and have only taken it off auto once...it's scary with all the buttons and settings!!!
These photos are amazing, you take beautiful pictures! I'm trying to get a little more into photography. School makes it difficult to find the time to sit down and read the manual, but I'm working on it.

Your weekend sounds like a lot of my weekends and I wish we could meet up for coffee and wander with our cameras for hours. Wouldn't that be fun? :)
p.s. I got my Nikon last June and I am still discovering the amazing things it can do.
I love your photos. You really do a good job!
