A wintersleep

I bit the bullet in the fall and registered for a photography class at the Art College here in town. I was sooooooo excited to be a student again and to learn more about my camera. Alas the course was canceled due to "lack of registration" so my Saturday morning escapes were no more. Yesterday when I put the girls down for their naps I decided enough is enough! I do not need to wait to "escape" to go take photos, there are photo worthy things all around me. So I bundled myself up and trekked off into the yard. I took some shots of the beautiful frost that we have and I am happy with how some of them turned out. Most importantly I got a breath of fresh air right in my own backyard and by the time the girls woke up from their naps I was refreshed and ready to play.

After bedtime I loaded the files onto the computer and started to play in photoshop As many of you know my husband knows photoshop inside and out so you would think that I would just ask him for help....but no. I learn by doing so last night I did a-lot to my photos some good and some bad but I did manage to learn some new photoshop skills!!!
