Ladybugs! :)

Here's a few hints on how to get an AWESOME ladybug picture:
  • First of all, find a ladybug. 
  • Then, put it in a refrigerator or cooler. (I know it sounds really mean, but it only makes the ladybug go dormant. A.K.A. not very active.)
  • Next, find anything that would look interesting with your ladybug. (Flowers, leaves, etc.) 
  • Last, put the ladybug where you want it, then take your picture. Then, watch the magic unfold! :)
These are some pictures that I turned out with-







Hopefully your pictures will turn out well! Look here for more of my latest updates!

My Favorite... Bluebirds and Gardening!


This female bluebird telling the male bluebird that she wants some food NOW. The funny thing is, the male bluebird's foot was in the air. (Walking)
The female was flying out of the box to get her food from the male.
In both of these, (top and bottom) the bluebirds were sitting on the fence together.

Well, I was in my Nana's (Grandmother's) backyard, and I went down to check on the garden. We have recently purchased a bluebird house, and we have noticed that some bluebirds were nesting. I had my camera with me, and I ended up getting some great shots! This weekend, I planted my own flower/herb container garden. In a tire, watering can, and a big rusty bucket, I planted quite a few flowers. In a smaller pail, I planted a few herbs.

Introduction

Hi! I didn't think I should just jump right in and start blogging. I kind of wanted you guys to know what I am even blogging for first. First of all, at 11 years old, I am an aspiring photographer planning to become professional. I am also a gardener, with my own little garden at my grandparents house. Lastly, I have a little dog, named Sammy, whom I love to pieces. I plan to make my photography known, somewhat anyways, just so I can have some fun with it. I think you might like this blog, and I hope that you'll keep visiting here to read about, and see pictures of my adventures. :) Thanks for reading!
