Tree Farm

Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been busy and haven't had much time to shoot or post. We went to a tree farm to take some pics a couple of weeks ago. The weather was beautiful--the sun was out and it wasn't too cold. Here's a couple of pics I took with a hand-held 580. They were taken close to noon. In the past, the time of day along with the harsh sunlight filtering through the trees would've wreaked havoc with shadows on their faces. But now that I'm not afraid to use a flash, I'm able to get some decent shots. There's a bunch of flare, but I was having a tough enough time just trying to get a decent shot. Gotta love 4 year olds :)
