SONOMA BALLOON FESTIVAL



My sister and I went to the Sonoma Balloon Festival on Saturday June 28th. We got there real early 5am !! Unfortunately I did not get any photos of the balloons as they got flames of propane shot into them in the dark cause I could not figure out a setting on my new camera at 1st. I was real disappointed. Oh well, next year. It was probably not the best year for the festival either, for the fog was very thick and the balloons never did lift off. But I guess that gives a lot more time to get good close up photos. The best part was the children's play area they set up on the inside of a balloon. The adults were having just as much fun as the kids !!

VIVA LAS VEGAS


So I know I have not posted in a long, long time. I have been revving up on my photography skills. Here is a picture I took last week while in Las Vegas with my fabulous new camera. After much research I purchased an Olympus E510 and I love it. Got this great night shot without even using a tripod. I could have never done this with my old Kodak. Also I suscribed the online photo website smugmug. They are not as user friendly as flickr, but they showcase your photography so much better. So what do you think?
