New wide angle 10-22mm lens

Okay so I finally got my wide angle lens for better group pictures and the amazing wide angle lens gives me a new perspective when shooting. If you look at some of the shots I am literally 6 inches away from my kids face and am still getting a great dynamic range. As you can also see, some of the shots have very unique perspectives that exaggerate certain aspects of the subject. It allows me to have more creativity when shooting profile or scenic shots. Check them out!!!

Halloween 09

So for Halloween Alyssa was a monkey again and Ashley was Cinderella and a Fairy. Well Halloween allows the kids and adults to act silly. We took the kids to Sherrie's work for their annual Halloween Party. Sherrie won for most creative costume again. That's three years in a row. The first two years she was a "cereal" killer and a Dixie Cup. This year she was a night stand, a "one night stand", hehe!!! I first thought she looked liked a file cabinet, but you be the judge. For Halloween, we took the kids trick or treating around the Mesa College area and they lasted for a few hours. Check out the pics.

Sacramento Weekend

Our weekend trip to Sacramento the last week of October was an emotional roller coaster. We went up there to attend Sherrie's uncle's funeral. He past away due to brain cancer. That same weekend was also Sherrie's birthday. We had a chance to meet up with the family before the holidays. So the kids are still too young to comprehend the truth about the trip, they just thought the trip was to visit their cousins because we would not be able to go up there for the holidays. While up there the kids and Sherrie all got new hair styles. We also attended a birthday party too.
