Thoughts/Prayers for the family, please.

My husband's papaw passed away Friday night. He was 87 years old and my hubby was SUPER close to him his whole life (he was our next door neighbor) so, as you can imagine, he's really sad. One thing that's helping my husband deal with this kind of good is that a few days before his papaw got really bad, he gave his life back to the Lord. Please just say a prayer or have a positive thought for the family right now, if ya dont care. His viewing is Tuesday and his funeral is Wednesday. Thanks.

Cardboard Testimonies

This seriously made me bawl. Love it!!

One thing I love....

Something that tickles my fancy (I sound old fashion *ha, ha*) is editing photos in Photoshop CS3. Just cant explain how much I love to experiment and just see what all I can do. I love actions, too, and have wrote a lot of my own.

This isnt my photo but I gave credit to the photographer (which is all they requested because it's a stock image; but goodness, they're good - love the pics of this girl & she's so pretty!!).

I liked her freckles a lot and in actual photographs I wont erase them all, but like I said... I was just playing to see what I could achieve (so nothing against freckles *whispers: I get a lot when I get out in the sun!*).

So here is just one edit, before and after. I plan to share a lot of before and after images in the future so be looking forward to that :-)

Gone Fishin'

I went fishing with my husband and son yesterday at the lake.

About Misty.

My name is Misty Sparks and this is my photography blog. I am not a professional photographer. I, instead, do this for the fun that it brings me. I'm also not into the whole 'Nikon vs Canon' debate. I have two DSLR's; one Nikon and one Canon ;)

While I love photographing people, you will rarely see such a photo on my blog. It's not often that I get the chance to have subjects other than my husband and our children. For personal reasons, and safety concerns, I do not share photos of them publicly on the internet. So you will mainly just see landscape and the like shared instead.

In case you want to know a little bit more....

I'm a full time stay at home mommy and housewife. I've been with my husband since March 2004 and we have three kiddos; one son and two daughters.

Thanks for stopping by my photography blog and I hope you visit again soon. Oh, yeah.... I love comments {hint, hint}!
