She's always more than happy to help me practice with my camera stuff.

Beautiful and photogenic as always! But, Auntie DeeDee, Sarge and Duggie want to know why Hallie's feeties are wet??? Did you make her go on the wet grass?? And, they said to tell Hallie, that she isn't suppose to like the wet grass!! They don't ..... you know, they might melt if they get wet!!

Dee Dee and Hallie · November 05, 2010, 06:42:16 PM

Hey Sarge and Duggie! That's why I was runnin' so fast mama put me on DAMP GROUND can you call the ASPCA for me? Or at least the ice cream truck, a root beer popcicle "might" make me feel better...

I love the black and white one where she's blissfully enjoying that bit of sunshine.

Cheryl · November 05, 2010, 09:15:00 PM

She's beautiful!..Love the black & white picture too

Yes I was going to point out the WET FOOTIES............good Lordy what was your mum thinking.
Love the photos, plus the lens.
Robert
ps model is stunning particularly the black and tan as a black and white

Dee Dee and Hallie · November 07, 2010, 02:12:31 PM

LOL those wet feeties make her body look poofy! She's a rail under all that hair (still struggle to get and keep weight on her I'm feeding her 4-5 times a day!). She feels GREAT though we're having so much fun. In the first running shot she looks like Princess Leia with a bun on each side of her little head. Today we start shooting pics for her Christmas card not sure I can pull this one off but we'll have fun trying.

Before I read the name of the images, I was guessing it was a new 50mm. Is it the 1.4? I love the black and white pics, too. They are probably my favorites. Can't wait to see the Christmas pics!

Dee Dee and Hallie · November 07, 2010, 09:15:31 PM

Yes the 1.4, I was shooting at 1.4 on her running shots to see if I could do it, wasn't easy. I love the lens so far.

Roberta · November 07, 2010, 10:12:07 PM

yes I've been looking at the olympus version or the 35mm one. I'm sort of also thinking of buying a Olympus PEN PL1 as I have been going out to shoot horse and have another few asks and it would save me swapping lenses as I need the tele for the other side of the arena. Have you heard any body using it.

I'm not familiar with those Roberta, wish I was so I could give some first hand advice! I can barely keep up with Canon!! Don't you wish they had one lens that went from like 0 - 5 million mm that was light and compact and f/1.0 :) It's a pain to switch lenses, I usually bring 2 bodies if I will need to switch back and forth. Sometimes I have to make Hallie walk so I can carry the camera gear in her stroller.

As usual GREAT SHOTS and A BEAUTIFUL MODEL! Loved the all. Thanks for shaing them I always look forward to seeing pictures!!!

Darcel

Dee Dee and Hallie · November 08, 2010, 11:19:04 AM

LOL Dr Leaky trust me sometimes I wonder the same thing!

Thanks Darcel, these might be the only shots I've ever gotten of Hallie with wet feet, it doesn't happen very often

Teresa · November 08, 2010, 08:22:35 PM

I told Randy that I want a small camera, one that fits in my purse for Christmas. Nothing expensive or fancy. He can't understand why! I told him that sometimes I just want to have a camera available to take a picture within a few seconds and not a few minutes. It's just not practical to carry a camera bag everywhere. I think he is finally beginning to understand! Doesn't mean I won't use my Nikon, that would never happen, just means I will have a camera with me at ALL times, something that may have some running in the opposite direction!

Dee Dee and Hallie · November 08, 2010, 09:21:50 PM

I have a little pocket canon I take everywhere too mainly for pics of Hallie in stores and places, like you say, it's not convenient to bring your big camera. I get a lot of use out of my little one! (you can use that if it helps sway Randy LOL)

Marcia from MI · November 12, 2010, 04:06:20 PM

I have a Sony Sure Shot and love it and I also have a Fuji(not fancy, it just looks that way) My fave though is my Flip video camera, I take it everywhere and I can pull frames from the video to make individual pictures. Last year I did a video of my family's Christmas Ornament exchange and used the Flip software to make ecards to end it to everyone. Since the new models of the Flip came out ones like mine - the Ultra can be found at some stores for under 100.00.
