I love taking pictures…capturing the light, a moment, seeing something through the lens and trying to render it… I also find it relaxing.
My husband, knowing this, got me another lens to play with for my birthday (thank you wonderful hubby!)
Here are a few I took over the weekend…
Do you enjoy taking pictures? What other creative activities do you enjoy?
Elodie Nowodazkij 
Lovely, lovely, lovely! The little bee is my favorite. 🙂
Do I enjoy taking pictures…? You’ve seen my Instagram, right? 😉 I’m a total amatuer, but I consider photography one of my creative outlets as well. That’s probably why I love when you post your photos so much!
Thanks Katy 🙂 Your Instagram always makes me smile and you take WONDERFUL pictures 🙂
Such great pictures! I attempt to take pictures and learn about my camera but I always forget everything. And then I revert to phone pictures instead!
Thanks Rebecca 🙂 I’m still learning how to use my camera properly…and phone pictures are pretty awesome too!
These are very impressive! I love the birds. I am a sucker for birds!
Thanks! 🙂

I’d like to take pictures even if I’m not so good as you … These are really beautiful
Merci maman 🙂 (and your pictures are beautiful too :P)

🙂 Thank you so much Jennifer 🙂

Ooo, these are really good, Elodie. I have to say, I agree with Katy–the bee’s my favorite. Such an amazing amount of detail. Excellent!
Music’s my other creative outlet. I play five instruments to a reasonable degree of competency, and enjoy playing so much can lose hours very easily. 🙂
Thank you so much Colin! 🙂 Five instruments? WOW!!!! What do you play?

These are gorgeous photos! I’m so impressed you got such a clear zoomed-in shot of a little bee!
I also love photography but I don’t take photos as much as I’d like. It’s one of my Thirty Before 30 goals to own a DLSR camera so hopefully I get one within the next year!
Oops, meant to write DSLR!
Thanks Ghenet! The zoom clearly helped 🙂 Can’t wait to see the pictures you’re going to take with that DLSR once you have it! 🙂
Your photos are beautiful! I love taking pictures, but really need to invest in a better camera. You should consider framing some of those!
Thanks Erin 🙂 I’ve been thinking about framing some of the pictures I took. Maybe I should stop thinking about it and really do it 🙂
Love the bumblebee! I love photography, but I’ve been bad about taking pictures lately (and keeping up with the technology–I was really into it back in the days of film!). You’re inspiring me to take pictures more. 🙂
Thanks Rebecca 🙂 I have to admit I love the zooooooooooooom lens I got. I’d love to see some more of your pictures so YAY 🙂
