Went to Susan and Terry's wedding this weekend. I was playing around with using available light for my photos, so as not to be having my flash interfere with the photographer. Makes for some interesting photos. I'm still learning how to get use my million different settings to get the best quality pictures. One day I will sit down and actually read some of the advanced manual, but its on cdrom, so I havent been in a hurry to sit in front of the computer to read it yet.
I also don't have a very steady hand. I lost so many of what would be great shots because I can't hold the camera still enough. I even have a stabilizer ability, but it can't correct the extent of my shakiness. Plth! (((more photos on my photo blog, Cheese))So the wedding was absolutely beautiful. The music for the ceremony was all from the LOTR. Amazing! The pastor performed a beautiful Christ-centered ceremony. It was lovely. If I were one to cry at weddings... this would have definitely been a tissue wedding.
All the grandchildren were included in the ceremony. They were awesome. The boys kept very serious, and Gracie, the flower girl, who is only two, was absolutely adorable. What a good girl she was.
It was very awesome to see a lot of old friends, whom I haven't seen in years. Rod and Julie. Oh my gosh... I am so happy I got to see them. I love and miss them so much! I can't beleive I didnt take a picture of them. DOH! Dennis and Sue. ((hugs)) And some time with Michelle, Darlene, Liz and Misty. And of course, I always enjoy seeing Cari and Jen.
I was Mandy's date, then stayed over at her place following the wedding. We had a marvelous time. I got to hang out with her some more on Sunday before heading over to pick up Lex from her dad's house.By the time I returned home, I was sure tired. I got to enjoy a little time with the family, followed by a long soak in the tub, then some quality time for me and D. Weddings always remind me of what an amazing husband I have. I am so thankful!!!
Yep... it was a great weekend!

It was so nice to see you!
You've got some great pictures here!!
love how you did that last pic.
My camera does all kinds of everything I've never looked into either.
trial and error seem to be working so far. ijust don't have the attention span or the time to check it all out
nice pictures shari!
I am still learning my camera as well. :(
But you took some GREAT photos. How the heck did you do that!! My pics would have come out really dark. Even some with the flash did. I think I need to take a photography course
I used a setting on my camera for candle light. So in a low lighting situation, it pulls in more light without a flash. The shutter also goes slower, so I had a lot of fuzzy shots from my shaky hands. I don't lose that many on normal settings, but lose a lot on the slower settings. *sigh*
