Fotografie Fridays: Mama's Babies

When I started this blog, it was mostly cooking, but I also rambled about my life and photography from time to time. I used to do Fotografie Fridays which was just a cheesy spin on Wordless Wednesday since I live in Germany. Haven't done it in a while but thought it'd be fun to start again :)

So last night I told you all that I was going to purchase a new lens today and that I did. My children accompanied me from store to store as I searched for a new 50 mm lens. This time I wanted 50mm f/ 1.4 instead of the 1.8 I had before. This lens is a bit more sturdy for someone like me with curious children and me being very erm..forgetful! I LOVE it! Can not wait to take more photos with it.

I treated my children to lunch at Pizza Hut after a week of long boring errands. I NEVER sit down at any restaurant because my youngest can't sit down anywhere longer than 10 minutes. Today he sat for 15 minutes. That's a bit of progress!

Standing up on the chair. Don't let the smile fool ya.


My sweeties sharing :)

Hope you all enjoy your weekend!!! Am planning to cook up a recipe with my son's chicken, waffle, rice, soup idea...only it will not be that, but close! Stay tuned :)

Fotografie Friday

PennyMarkt Flowers, originally uploaded by YummySommer.

I took this photo yesterday, but I doubt I'll be able to take any cool shots today due my kids being ill. I doubt most appreciate close-ups of vomit or even better explosive diarrhea. :) I am currently reading Scott Kelby's "The Digital Photography Book Vol.1" and I learned that my shots must be a lot sharper and the only way to accomplish that is a tripod. Apparently my tripod isn't that great, but hey it gets the job done. Plus to save shake, I used my camera's timer. It's amazing how sharp this shot is to me.

Also I used some flowers I bought at the local PennyMarkt for 2 Euros :)
