Amateur Photography Merit Badge

Because Chase is such a patient husband, I asked if he would be willing to teach me some photography skills. I enjoy the idea of being better at photography and having an expert on hand does help. So we went for a Sunday drive up Guardsman's Pass, into Park City, then around Sugarhouse area. Here are my top picks.

This one is my favorite. I played with aperture and focus. I like that you can see all the other blossoms in the back. Even Chase gave this one a thumbs up.

Pioneers...again

So I've slacked off a bit on posts, it's been a busy summer and I'm just trying to get caught up on schoolwork and life.

Add to that, Chase and I have to plan a talk for Sunday on Pioneers. I've got a confession, I get rather tired of pioneer talk and how we will never understand their sacrifices, we're not as good, yada yada yada. Well I think they were great, so that's not the argument, but rather, I feel like we spend too long on the past or on one group. I like new things in church and new views. So I am going to take a somewhat different approach.

Thoughts?
