My Fix-It Friday #5

This week at I Heart Faces we have "Wee Man" shot by his momma Catherine. She explains the reason the picture is dark and says that it is due to "Mommy Brain". As moms we sometimes suffer from this "mommy brain", it really should be an actual diagnosis! Lol! So below is my Fix-It of her cute little boy at the beach. I went a totally different way this week and turned the one picture into a watercolor. The other I played around with in camera raw until I found what I liked. I think the vignette is a bit much though. Hope you enjoy it!

Wecome!

The other day I found out that I am part of a group of women known as "momarazzi". While I have found several definitions for this elite group, my favorite one is "A mom who doggedly pursues her children to take photos." That is so me. I chase after my poor children imploring them to please look at the camera just this once. Which inevitably turns into twice, three times etc. While I have always loved taking pictures, once I had kids it just exploded. Then last December I finally bit the bullet and bought a Nikon D80. And to top it all off, I recently purchased Photoshop CS4 Extended. I'm obsessed. Seriously.

Now I search the internet for photography blogs, photographer blogs, Nikon forums and momarazzi (mamarazzi to some) blogs.

My newest favorite site is I Heart Faces. Totally addicted. In fact, I decided this morning to do the Fix-It Friday Challenge. That post will be coming after this, as soon as I come up with something I like. Remember, I am a total amateur at this stuff. Please be kind. Lol!
