Quick Snaps

February 10, 2012 By Kim Klassen

 

Winter frost…  Oh my it’s pretty. The photo possiblities are endless.

The other day I took the puppy dogs to the lake. I also took my Nikon. I was very excited to capture the pretty frost. Unfortunately I left the battery at home on the charger. Ugh. Thankfully I had my Olympus Pen in the car and I was able to snap away during our walk.

I just love this shot of Ben. The focus isn’t great, his legs are cut off, but he looks so handsome with the frosty tress in the background. By the time the walk was over the frost had fallen. I’m so glad I had my Pen close by and I was able to capture it. How about you? Do you keep a small camera or maybe your camera phone close by to capture the beauty life offers up?

Share a quick snap with us today.

    The best thing about my iPhone is that I always have it with me: http://instamaticgratification.wordpress.com/2012/02/06/37366/

    After a snowfall last week Friday we had a wonderful cold but sunny weekend and I wish I had captured all the ice skating on the frozen canals. I did take a picture of a harbor nearby though:

    My quick snap is of my Mom and daughter playing together. My Mom is so good to my daughter and they have such a great bond. The shot isn't perfect technically, but I did capture a special moment between them:

    What a beautiful shot – so glad you were able to capture it! I always carry my small Nikon Coolpix in my purse, and am so glad that I do. I have been able to capture things that I wouldn't have wanted to miss. Here's a couple I took a couple of weeks ago as I ran my routine errands.

    I agree – the best thing about my iPhone is that it's always with me…even in the middle of Seattle's big storm. Here's a snap I took as the snow continued to fall – so pretty!
