The County Fair In Photos
Tags:



THURSDAY NIGHT : Awesome cooler weather with just a touch of a breeze. Dinner & an elephant ear. A bit of grouchiness from the older kid after he didn't win a game. A couple rides (the ferris wheel with mom & the haunted house with dad). Lovely light. Tons of excitement going in and really tired kids & parents coming out. Savoring the last few weeks of summer.

I love how you documented your day. I was reading through some old posts and came across a week in the life and decided to take on the challenge but only for the day. I toted my camera around with me and would stop every now and then to capture the moment. It was so much fun that I had to put it together in an album later that afternoon. Keep inspiring others I never get tired of all the goodness you share whether it is a quote, a friends blog, gorgeous pictures, or a project.

Ali, these photographs are amazing! Those first two just caught me and swept me away! Of course, then came the tummy ache I get EVERY time I look a those swings! I can do any roller coaster out there, but MAN, those swings get me! LOL!

Those are awesome pictures of the rides! Makes me want to get out there and practice using my camera that I haven't had time to master!

Lovely photos Ali! I can almost hear the arcade music! Looks like you all had a nice evening, aside from the tiny bit of grouchiness. I love Simon's minus-two-teeth grin! Sweet :)
Have a splendid weekend~

Ali,
Learning that hardly ANYONE wins the fair games seems to be a grouchy part of growing up for every kid! Love the light in these shots!

Oh my gosh, your husband wears a visor too... Mine wears one all day, every day and people always comment on it. So funny to see your husband in one; I thought Ben was the only person left to wear one when he's not golfing... :)

Wow, your photos and kids are amazing! Love those eyes on Simon, especially with the missing teeth! Too cute! And the baby has grown so fast. I love the shot of her watching the rides.

Hi Ann - up until about a month ago I had been using a Canon Digital Rebel. Awesome camera - perfect for anyone wanting to purchase a digital SLR camera. We recently upgraded and are now using a Canon 5D (and learning more about it/practicing/playing around). For photo editing I use Photoshop.
