Fish-Eye Fun!

June 12, 2007/ Khara

New toys are always fun... especially when they serve a practical purpose! I recently added a fish-eye lens to my collection... here's a pic from a test shoot. :)

Loving how these turned out and I can’t wait for Zé to share them tomorrow/Thursday! The finished pieces were delivered yesterday afternoon, but I needed an in-hand sample for my webinar session earlier in the day, so I got desperate. Check out my stories to see how these flat cards from MPixPro look compared to a 💩 sample from a 1-hour processor (muddied shadows, horrible color, haloing around the type, overly dark, and of course, glossy finish 😱).

 Suckers from @traderjoes #valentinesideas #easyvalentines
Not sure why it took me so long to figure out, but fleece makes great “knee pads,” as Zé calls them. His pants don’t last long if I don’t include knee pads, but it’s kind of a pain to cut four pieces, sew, clip, turn, and press them, and then finally sew them on. With fleece, it’s just the two pieces, then just sew them on. No need to have a finished edge. Heck, I don’t even pin them in place before seeing. (I’ve been adding fleece knee pads to flannel pants and they stay well enough on their own.) Anyone else do this? Am I a genius or an idiot? Or does everyone else already know this, and I’m late to the fleece knee pad party? 🤣 #sewingfortoddlers #sewingforboys #babykneepads
I came home from a run yesterday to find Emir and Zé hard at work on some dinosaur coloring sheets Emir had printed out. It kept Zé busy for what seemed like forever. He was still at it last night with my parents, and again first thing this morning. Then, after adding drawings of poop, plants, mama and tata dinos, and big piles of meat (to eat, obv), we cut them out and taped them to popsicle sticks. He is CAPTIVATED.
If your dinos don’t poop, do you even really have a dino?
Sunshine from yesterday still makes me smile today.
Date night! Headed out to see @demetrimartinofficial! #LNK
Coloring dinos with tata. ❤️#saturday

Aren’t these v-day cards fun?!?!?(Featuring more dinosaurs, of course. Perfect for sharing with Zé’s equally dino-obsessed friends. 🤣) I’ll be showing the how-to on next Monday’s Photobacks webinar and including a .PNG of the text so viewers can make their own! .
