A Day At The Park With My Sunshine (and my point and shoot)

 

I've been making an effort to learn how to use my camera better. I don't have a fancy one, just a plain ol point and shoot. We've been talking about upgrading for a while now but before we invest the dough, I thought I'd try to see if I can survive with this camera a little longer.

 

Here are a few pictures I took of Mr. Cruze (sporting his Babiators) at the park yesterday.

 

I really tried to work with the light behind me and I have to say, I love the way they turned out.

 

 

These last few were not taken by me (clearly since I'm in them lol). I'm not a fan of how they turned out OR more likely, I'm not a fan of how I turned out in them but I'm posting them anyway.

 

The lighting wasn't so great in those spots but I wasn't really in control of how they were taken. I can definitely see the difference light makes. I'm sure you can too!

 

And that my friends is our day at the park.
