I got a nice sleep in this morning. My Mum told the kids if they went outside too early to look for eggs that Easter Bunny might not have been yet and then they'd scare him away and wouldn't come back!
After the Easter hunt, I cleaned the girls up, did their hair, put on their angel wings and a clean chesty and tried to get them to pose for me.
Some of my fave's from the shoot.....
And my entry for the EB Beginners Flickr photo mini challenge Easter 2008
Off to the Oakbank races tomorrow, hope to catch some fun action there.

New Camera, Newfound Inspiration
My new camera has arrived and it is like having a new baby in the house, minus the constant need for attention. I jumped straight in and have been shooting in manual and getting to know how my baby likes to be handled and so far I'm really pleased with the results.
Still so far to go and so much to learn, but that's what life is all about, what fun would it be if we knew everything there was to know.
I also find myself watching my children play more. I want to capture 'THAT' shot and rather than do something else, I watch them.

My creative side - or lack thereof
I picked up an SLR for the first time in 15 years earlier in Feb. There was an old roll of B&W in it which I remember buying when I was pregnant with Eva in 2005, so know there was some old shots on it, I finished the roll and decided to see if I had anything else creative flowing through me. The results are quite good, for a first go, and really gave me the urge to get back into photography.
I have my NEW Nikon D60 and 50mm f1.8D lens arriving Wednesday - so watch this space....
