BBQ in November...

During this time of the year, we should see our first snowfall or at least it gets a little colder. However, today it was 65F outside and it was an awesome day to bbq. Instead of wearing gloves and winter clothing, we were outside in our sweater with a bbq tong in our hand. The neighborhood kids enjoy their day with just a t-shirt on and playing YOU'RE IT! NOT IT!

Next in line were the Gomes family. By the time I finished taking pictures of the parents, the boys had ran away...

We had a very relaxing weekend eventhough the weather was gloomy at times. However, we were happy that our place of destination wasn't raining and we were able to take a few group pictures... I'll be breaking up the fall color pictures into several sessions starting with Kak Aida & Abg. Zul's family. I certainly enjoyed their session very much. I was pratically laughing my butt off bila tengok perangai of all her boys, which made this session very natural and not over posinglah katakan. Thanks for being my models guys!! :)

This last picture is one of my favourite...

playing with lens flare...

Some photographers were using this lens flare technique on their blog and I thought that it was pretty cool. It gives the picture a sense of romantic kind of feeling and I wanted to try it out. Here are some of my trials and I took this early in the morning around 8am. I love the morning light. Everytime I look at these pictures, I feel like I just got out of bed.

Ok I know this is not a lens flare but I wanted to put this up anyways. :) Most of these pictures I didn't have to do much editting to them...

Warren Dunes continues...

After our swim in Lake Michigan, we headed to St.Joe River. The guys went fishing, while the ladies stayed behind with the food and the kids.

Michigan National Park

This picture was taken last 2 years in the Fall. It was a really nice day to walk in the park looking and taking pictures of the colorful splendour of Fall.

Warren Dunes, MI

Some pictures that I took during our picnic at the dunes... although the heat was unbearable, the wind gust was overwhelming, we all still enjoyed ourselves. It was so hard for us to eat since the wind keeps adding extra sand in our food, our drinks keep spilling over, but all was fun. Next time I would bring duct tape to hold our food down while we eat. :)
