Happy Monday - Bokeh

How exciting is this: Last week's Happy Monday theme was selfies, and I made it into the top 5!!


Exciting!

And now for this week's Happy Monday theme: BOKEH! I spent a couple hours Saturday night with my dad's camera and tripod to get some bokeh shots. I am still learning how to get the light to do what I want it to do, but I captured some beautiful shots. I am just dreaming of the day that I can afford my own DSLR and do photo shoots on my own time, whenever I want.

Here is one of my favorites. In the foreground is a music box with a little train that goes in circles. Or, a little train that USED to do in circles, until I decided (when I was about 6) that I wanted it to go faster.



I am also linking up with Trendy Treehouse's Shutter Love because this week's theme is Dreaming, and Simplicity's Photography Challenge, because the theme is Simple Beauty.

  3. Congrats on making top 5! And I love this pic--it almost doesn't look real because of the toy in the foreground and blur of the lights--it looks painted or something. Very cool!

    (totally thought bokeh was related to when Tara had her broken keyboard on couldn't use about half her keys *snort*)
