{You Capture- Best shot of the week}

Published on June 3, 2010January 17, 2013 by Mae @ Rainydayinmay7 Comments

This was a touch challenge… This week there has been a lot going on around here and I’ve taken a ton of photos… In fact, as of yesterday afternoon I was pretty sure of the shot I’d use but then last night my mom, Gen, Bekah and I were blowing bubbles in the rain and it was super cool…

and I changed my mind…

{You Capture- Depth of Field}

Honestly, I couldn’t decide what to shoot… so i sort of shot a lot of nonsense…

And then Paisley, because she’s super cute and such a diva. She loves having this silly ribbon tied around her neck. (It’s attached to her collar so it can’t choke her) She really struts around like she’s the belle of the ball…

{You Capture- Spring}

Published on April 29, 2010January 17, 2013 by Mae @ Rainydayinmay24 Comments

On Saturday Genny and I were out and about doing some errand and market shopping. We passed this lone, blooming tree and it was extraordinary. Planted square in the middle of this vast parking lot was this tree with the most unique blossoms I’d ever seen- just reaching for heaven.

Beautiful.

I made the mental note to return to that very parking lot, camera in hand, to capture my Spring shots…

And there are a few very good reasons why I didn’t.

One would be the massive migraine that set in, just a few hours later, and the massive misery which ensured, ruining much of the weekend and ranging in intensity through early wednesday…

Two would be that, although we technically became a two car family again- the next day- we are pretty much still a one car family because the second car isn’t exactly working. Le’ sigh…

And three, well… the funny thing about the third reason is that it actually moved in and stole my spring you capture spotlight…

We were hit with several storms, but this one- this one was huge and amazingly awesome. (we also had a fantastic shower of gum drop sized hail, but I love my camera so i was not about to go out…)

Quick note about those last two shots. the clouds were moving SO fast. They were literally shot one right after the other. If I can figure out how to take the photos from Chw’s iphone and blog them, I will because he was in Boise and took pictures of the storm over our neighborhood. Straight out of a sci-fi/horror movie, is what it looked like. Brought back tornado memories…

Stretched out right over our house. :) Beautiful… of course, a photo could NEVER do it justice…

And these last two have nothing to do with storms, or spring (unless you count the springs inside of the couch) but I had to share… We bought this 1960’s couch (or divan, as my grandmother would correct me) for the office we’ve been redoing, upstairs. I LOVE it!!! (and so does Makaila. she is glued to it’s side whenever possible. She’s so pretty…)
