My Favorite Time of Year

My favorite time of the year is officially here.  I love the cool mornings, warm afternoon sun, and the changing of colors.

The drought in Utah has put a damper on our typical bright reds and oranges, but the aspens were full of color last weekend in the Cottonwood Canyons.

 The first snowfall of the season made the perfect background.

Our annual girls trip to Gardner's Village was quite a bit smaller than last year, but we still enjoyed our time together.

And the day would not be complete, without this precious girl getting a little bit glittered.

 

Photography Walk

Last week I met up with an online group called Clickin Moms. Each year they sponsor a Clickin Walk day for photographers in your area.

 It's a great way to get out and meet some statewide photographers.

We met up at Ogden's Farmers Market on 25th Street.

I had a "Shadows" challenge for another photography group, Lisa was great to partner up with. It's always great to be able to participate in a hobby with someone you know.

A little practice with reflections,

and a shot of a bag that I need to go back and get, if I could only remember which storefront if was at.

Street photography is a bit of a challenge, it makes you start to notice things you would not normally notice.

Another great shadow shot as we complete our walk.
