Shoot and Edit - Laughter

I was about to skip this week because I hadn't taken any pictures that captured laughter.  However, I put in my memory stick and scrolled down and discovered this picture of my daughter slip 'n sliding and low and behold she's laughing!  I actually really like this shot even though there's a shadow on her.

Shoot and Edit - Summer Edited

In case anyone was wondering, it's still hot here in Texas.  Things haven't changed here.  My little one had surgery yesterday so we're taking things easy today.  He's fine but we're staying in the a/c which gives me a few minutes to edit a few pictures.

Here are my edits this week.

Shoot and Edit - Summer

It's been a while since I've participated in Shoot and Edit.  It's actually been so long since I logged into Blogger that I didn't even recognize the new format.  It's all very new and weird.  I need to figure it all out.  I just got back from a trip with my kids.  We went down to San Antonio to visit my mom and stepdad for 8 or 9 days and I snuck in a girls trip down to the coast, too.  However, I only took pictures one day when we went to their ranch!  After looking through my pictures and seeing the prompt for this week I couldn't pass up this sweet cow at the ranch.  I mean even the sweet cow is sweating profusely (check out her nose!).  It's so hot here in Texas is disgusting!  I'm so over summer.

And, because I like to post a picture of my kids.  I took these on the same day.  We stopped at a park on the way to the ranch and believe it or not it wasn't too hot to play.

My son just loved seeing the cows.  He really wanted to feed them but he didn't.  My daughter did pat one though! 

Hope you are are having a cooler summer than we are!

Happy shooting and editing. :)

Shoot and Edit - Bubbles

This week the theme is bubbles.  As much as I'd like to stay outside long enough to play bubbles with the kids it's too hot!  It's already 100 here.  YUCK!  I thought about trying to teach my daughter how to blow bubbles with her gum but decided she doesn't need to know that trick yet.  At least not the week of her recital!  So, I took a picture of water while they were on the slip n slide.  It's close enough to bubbles for me. :)

We leave for vacation this weekend so I won't be able to participate for a couple weeks.  I'll be busy taking lots of pictures in cooler California though!

Shoot and Edit - Looking Up Edited

I just read Ashley's post but I haven't watched the videos yet.  I will though!  I must admit I use PW edge burn action when I'm looking for a little something extra for a photo.  I love it.  It's so easy to apply and adjust.  I just added it quickly to my second photo here that I had edited earlier this week.

Shoot and Edit - Looking Up

I never got around to editing last week!  It was so busy around here.  My kiddos finished school, we had field day which I volunteered at and then there was the holiday with friends over for a fish fry.  GO, go go.  Fun times.  Summer is in full swing here.

So, this week the theme for Good to Wow is "Looking Up".  Here are my interpretations SOOC:

This is my daughter looking up towards the sky while the kids were slip 'n sliding away.

Here she is again with her buddy.

This time I was the one looking up.  Sweet Wy's mommy was holding her up towards the sky and I got down and aimed up to take a picture of her sweet face.
