Catching up… A week later

BirthdayCandles

Last week was my birthday and no that is not my cake. My lovelies (out of respect I won’t post what I would like to say) destroyed it before I could get a picture of it. It was cute, my mom put little bunnies and chicks around it with all the little flowers and pretties as usual. It sucked. It was cold, I was tired, the kids were fighting, and Terry was doing a side job.

Our trip to Gatlinburg was great and we had a wonderful time. The weather was beautiful. We really enjoyed our time there.

This was our little cabin. It was very nice inside and I would recommend Auntie Belham’s to anyone who asks, very accommodating and well kept cabins.

I could live up here and be happy. Away from the hustle and bustle of everything.

Now I have 2 pictures that I was trying my hand at trying the auto setting and the manual setting on my camera. It was a waterfall and I wanted the still effect and the flowing effect. The auto setting is sootc and the manual I had to do some rotation and enhance because I didn’t have my tripod (duh) and had to set the camera on the hood of the truck.

Auto - and it actually seems a little blurry… Hmmmm…

Manual - I rotated it a little to the left because it was a little off, darkened it a bit and cropped it. So a little work and it turned out pretty good for a first. Practice, practice, practice!

Who would ever believe that this small town makes as much profit as it does. Wow!
