Sun Flare!

It’s Sun Flare Week at I♥Faces.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE sun flare!  I have some pretty cool star-shaped flare in a previous post, but, alas, they don’t contain a face, which is a requirement for I♥Faces (can’t imagine why!)  This is a photo of a friend I took senior pictures for…I convinced her to wear her prom dress for some pics with her cute little Arabian mare.

You Capture – Sunrise/Sunset

This week’s theme for You Capture over at I Should Be Folding Laundry is Sunrise/Sunset.  We’ve had a week of snow and yucky weather here, so I had to use pics I had previously taken…so here is a completely random assortment of some of my sunrise/sunset photos from the last couple of months.  I know that’s not the point of these challenges, to use photos from your archives, but I’m new to all of this and really wanted to participate – sorry!  The first two are sunrise and the rest are sunset :-)

And this final one is “Sunset” because it’s a tree in our backyard and the heart in it only shows up like this at sunset…

“Autumn Beauty”

It’s “Autumn Beauty” week over at IHeartFaces.  I’m looking out my window at several inches of snow at the moment, but I did take some pictures before we had this crazy weather.  This one’s from a family photo shoot I did for a friend.  The weather was very cloudy and cold all day but finally, at sunset, the sun came out and her daughter was game for taking a few more pics.
