Water play (1st shots with my 5D3)...
The day after I got my new baby (Canon 5D Mark III) we headed to our local water park/pool. The girls had a great time & I loved shooting with my new baby!
I will say I LOVE my new camera. It's even better than I thought it would be. The ISO upgrade (from my Classic 5D) is HUGE! I can now get natural low light shots I couldn't get with my Classic. The new AF system is AMAZING. Having 61 AF points instead of 9 has dramatically enhanced my composition. I'm still practicing toggling my single AF but it's much faster and easier than I thought it would be. I was concerned that it would take too much time with so many more AF points but it's not! With a bit more practice, I won't miss any shots toggling! Yay! The shutter is much quieter and the IQ is to die for and the bokeh is smoother. I can zoom in on full body shots and count eyelashes...no joke! Worth every penny it cost! I can't wait to grow with it and improve!
And this summer was a BIG one for our Nugget. She's always loved the water but wouldn't take off her life jacket to learn how to swim, nor would she jump in or put her face under water. I didn't push it. I knew when she was ready, she'd go for it. Well this summer she did!!!! You cannot wear a life jacket here so she was finally pushed to go for it. As you'll see it started with jumping to her sister, then jumping in on her own and by the end of the day swimming with her head under water. It was a proud day to be her Mama!
All were shot with my new Canon 5D Mark III, either my 35L or my 135L and all were edited with Michelle Kane's actions including her new Half Light set that I LOVE...
I love our mountains & the Big's heading up to the slides...
Playing around...
The Little...
Haylee's BFF came along of course...
and let the jumping begin...
a friend met us there with her two sons...here is her older boy...
He's such a fun kid...
and here she is with her younger boy who hates having his picture taken...
Nugget trying to get comfortable without her life jacket...
Ghetto bird...
real bird...
and now jumping by herself...
the beautiful Big's with Caden...
pretty girls...
splashing fun...
she's already a jumping pro...
a little swim lesson...
getting crowded and it got a lot more crowded as the day went on...
sorry but I can't get enough of her jumping...
lunch time with my Little who loves healthy food...
the Big's doing the "cup song"...
more fruit...
photo bomb...
love my messy Little...
painted nails and organic banana chips...
proud to show me how well she swims under water already...
plane getting ready to land (wish I had posted the before shot. plane was tiny in the sooc)...
this is the type of shots I get a lot now that the girls are getting older...sigh...
but the Little still loves to pose for me...YAY...
OH...and another BIG event...she went down the SLIDE!!!! We told the lifeguard before hand so he could pull her up if she panicked and forgot to push up off the mat. She loved it and was so proud of herself but it freaked her enough that one time was enough...lol! What a day for my Nugget...
looking to find Sissy and showing her pride...
Big's taking one last slide before we leave...
Thanks for looking and hope everyone had a great summer!
