Yesterday Ethan and I were able to participate in the local Clickinwalk2015. There is a group on Facebook that I just stumbled across the other day called clickinmoms. If you love taking pictures as a hobby or professionally you should look up your local group.
Truth is I am not even a hobbyist when it comes to photography. I want to be but haven't taken the time to learn how to use my camera correctly in the last oh I don't know, about 4 years since I bought it. Ethan on the other hand loves to use his camera. In fact one of my sisters has affectionately given him the nickname paparazzi. So when I heard of the event and it was at a time we could go I signed us up.
Well I didn't want to go with no knowledge of how to get a halfway decent picture from my camera so I did some digging online and played around with it in preparation for the day. And Ethan showed me some of his tricks.
Here are some of Ethan's pictures.

This one is my absolute favorite picture that Ethan took. When I saw it I thought why didn't I think to take a picture of the inside of the art piece. I don't expect any different from Ethan though. When he was a baby the first thing he would do with a new toy was to turn it over to see how it worked.
Well I took some pictures also. They are nothing like the pictures that the other ladies took. I am so inspired by them and looking forward to learning how to get some better pictures from my camera. I can say one thing I learned yesterday from watching the others and seeing their pictures today is to look for the details. There are so many things we miss if we don't slow down and really take a look around us.

To see the entire pictures just click on the image you would like to see. There is some great architectural details on a lot of the buildings here as you can see. I hope to improve and get some better detail shots next time.
So far my pictures on my other blog post have been from my phone. I think from now on my pictures will be getting better.
