Photo Hunt: Hands

This week's photohunt theme is hands. My kids were excited that they got to be "hand models" for me!

And of course we couldn't take hand photos in this house without trying to recreate the Twilight book cover!

Faces: Week 11 No Flash



IMG_6075PB




Here is my entry for this week's iheartfaces contest in the adult category. This week's theme is no flash. I love this pic of my hubby. But I'm not sure if I like the reflections on his sunglasses and I'm not sure how or if it can be fixed. Any suggestions?

Wisconsin Lighthouse {North Point, Milwaukee}

I was flipping through a Wisconsin Recreation guide a couple weeks ago and there was a section on lighthouses. I thought it may be fun to try to find as many as I could and photograph them. There are a total of 35 listed, some are pretty far north and only accessible by boat so I'm not sure if I'll ever get to all of them, but it will be fun to see how many I can get to. I also found a website that lists lighthouses by state. Looks like there may be few more besides those listed in the book.

We visited the first one last week and have plans to get to some more over the next few months as the weather starts getting nicer. This is the North Point Lighthouse located in Milwaukee.
