Pentax SMC 135mm f2.5 K Mount

Not a fantastic pic, but I loved the sharpness and shallow depth of field.

Getting Ready to Face the Day....

Sitting in front of my computer at work, waiting for patients to finish breakfast so I can try to see them before they leave. Oatmeal still cooling down, we have a nifty thingy from In-Sink-Erator that puts out 180deg hot water on command, works great for oatmeal, hot cocoa etc... but it does make it kinda hot tho.

Pretty tired, stayed up late to take the kids to watch fireworks, but in a more unusual spot than most people would, or so we thought. There is a road that runs right next to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple (Still being built) that is right on top of the bluff and the view is quite spectacular. We were able to see 6-7 shows, from a long way away, and best of all for my 2 oldest girls we were so far away there were no loud noises. I would have loved to be lying on my back as close to the show as I could get with a superwideangle lens on a tripod. But I took Fireworks pics last week, what can I do that is new? sigh....

Anyway, better go do something productive.

Last Fireworks





I really enjoyed taking the pictures, I hope you have enjoyed looking at them. I really won't know if the exposure was quite right until I see them on a better monitor, but I hope they look good for ya!

Sad News

As some of you may know I was adopted. During the course of my young adulthood I was able to locate and meet my biological mother. I was grateful for the opportunity I had to thank her for putting me up for adoption and giving me the chance to have the incredible life and family I have. While not close, we stayed in contact and she was able to enjoy watching Lauriann and my family grow from afar.
 
We received news tonight (June 30) that Vicki passed away in Michigan due to advanced kidney disease and lung cancer. We will miss her though we did not know her well. We extend our deepest sympathies to her husband Gary, her brother David and extended family in this time of sorrow.
 
Vicki, rest well in God's loving embrace.
 
Lloyd, Lauriann & Family
