New sweet snack obsession. Cara Cara Pink Navel Oranges. I went out to lunch with my mom and she had one in her purse, along with carrots and probably spray butter. I usually hate oranges so I did not even think to try it. My friend Karla Banks with Banks Photography and I went to Ikea the other day so I could pick up a new desk for our office. She had heard about this place called Jungle Jim’s… apparently it was Trader Joe’s on steroids… it was enormous! I am a cheese lover and well they had every cheese imaginable! So they had little stations of samples which is my favorite, its why I love Costco and they were serving Cara Cara oranges. Oh my gosh, why I didn’t buy a dozen right then and there is beyond me. You know there isn’t much going on in our world if I’m talking about oranges. I can honestly say I have hardly ever used our macro lens, its the one where we take some pretty awesome ring shots, its also Coty’s job. So I decided I’d take a couple of the orange and I don’t know why I haven’t used this before. I have this idea to take pictures of different fruits up close and then put a collage in our kitchen… so cute!
My parents got me a shootsac for my birthday and I could have squealed. I immediately showed Coty because he usually a victim of holding my camera/lens/camera bag so he at least should see what he might be carrying! I got it in the mail today with a little photography tip that I have to share! Tip No. 19 from Jessica Claire Ask for Forgiveness, Not Permission. This made me laugh because I am not one to break the rules but from time to time I will sacrifice getting yelled at for a great picture moment. Amy and Steve are a great example! They are huge buckeye fans and the gate just happened to be open and there just happened to be band members coming out of the shoe to help us get in… it was good times! Another moment was me in the fountain at Creekside in Gahanna. Bethany and Curt’s wedding party was just too large so there was not other way to capture that moment than to get INTO the fountain. What I didn’t expect was for it to be deeper than I thought and a lot colder! I love taking risks, just as long as someone doesn’t damage my camera or I get arrested! Hope everyone has a wonderful week! Love you all!
