Finding Beauty In Everyday Things Blog Event

Wooohhooo!!! It's a new blog event!

For a week (well... you know how unreliable I am when it comes to these things, but anyway) I will post every day no matter what try to post every day, with pictures about

Finding Beauty In Everyday Things!

Here's the plan:

Day 1: Water

Day 2: Animals

Day 3: Light

Day 4: Shadows

Day 5: Words

Day 6: Reflection

Day 7: Christmas

This week will start December 19th and end Christmas Eve, December 24th.

I'm really excited about this, because it will give me an excuse to use macro on the camera... hehe!

If you want to join in and link up, feel free to:

But remember, there's no linky tool, so if you want to share, comment with a link to the post.

And, there is one rule:

Try to glorify God in all our pictures.

He put the beauty in all our everyday things!!

A plutar (see you later),

Everyone's Cameras

This is really super random,

but I noticed that 2 people:

Lucia Marie

and

Miss Raquel

both got new amazing cameras (Hooray!!!) and they named them.

Well, that just struck me funny because I don't name my cameras.... no offense, I mean I think it's really cute that they named theirs, I had just never thought about it before!

So



Alfonzo

and

Nikki

are these particular cameras.

My camera's name is....

(get ready for something really so exciting you will be blown away by it's superness)

Fujifilm Finepix s1800.

Haha.

No, I never named my camera...but I got it like 2 years ago (or maybe just one), but anyway, I think the warranty has expired, and it still works!

Sometimes I think, "Hey, I want a camera like this:"

or this:

But I don't even really use the fancy one I have right now - I barely know how to work it's custom setting. So I would more likely use something like this:

to capture those everyday moments.

And to drop in my purse and take wherever and not care that

if I dropped it I might be losing a billion dollars!

But I would still like to someday use one where the zoom button is a twisty thing located on the lens...

COMPLETELY AWESOME!!!!

Like this....

WOW!!!!!

Dreaming of $100,000,000,000,000,000 worth of camera.....
