Happily living a simple life, exploring the great outdoors with my husband and our 2 amazing girls. I'm a Shutterbug-constantly taking pictures and have had a real camera in my hand since I was 12 years old! I love to cook, craft, bake, travel and help people! I've been told I'm a "Jane of all trades" but I usually refer to myself as having Creativity A.D.D. This blog will consist mostly of recipes and foodie posts, but occasionally I come across an organizing idea or DIY post I just can't resist sharing!

Exploring the capabilities of a Macro lens...

WOW! I think I'm in love! I rented a lens(60mm macro) a few weeks ago from our local Photography store and let me tell you, that baby captures phenomenal details with very little "noise"! I went to Franklin Park Conservatory and botanical garden and tested it out on some gorgeous orchids, and a blown glass skylight by Chihuly. Absolutely gorgeous. If you've never seen his work you should check it out, it is really amazing! http://www.chihuly.com/ I had a lot of fun with this lens, I could have walked around there all day taking pictures of every little petal and bloom!
