Nevermind

Nevermind with the chain reaction as before because yet again it is cold! It's not raining which is wonderful but definitely not 'sit outside and take pictures weather.' Maybe in April! However, this has given me the time to focus on designing new peices of jewelry and get some reading done. I am trying to "do" the Love Dare book which proves to be more difficult than one would think. I was stuck on the kindness day for about 4 days. (Maybe I was grumpy from not being able to go outside :)) Or maybe we aren't as good as we think we are...

Off to watch Obama's speech...

The Chain Reaction

I am working outside today since it's has finally stopped raining and is above 50 degrees!!! No one has to twist my arm to be excited about Spring. Flowers are beginning to bloom and people are now walking outside again. So this means that I can start to take some sunny colorful pictures. However, there's a catch... I have a point and shoot camera. Which before Christmas I would have thought was perfect, but then my dad got an amazing Canon SRL camera from my mom and I of course played with it and the rest is history. I took all of my jewelry pictures again on his camera which made such a difference on the website. So now that I am spoiled by his Christmas gift I am now thinking of investing in an upgrade. Of course then I would need to take lessons in photography... Who knew that there would be such an expensive chain reaction?! So if anyone has an opinion on some good cameras that would take highly detailed jewelry pictures (as well as all other pictures) then please let me know! Also, anyone have any creative ideas for shooting jewelry for a website?

First Time Blogger

Many of my friends have blogs and talk about them in ways I do not understand. So I figure the only way to join in conversation is to try it out for myself. I know I'm a bit late in joining the blogger world but I'm here now and that's what matters. Maybe this will be an easier way to keep up to date with all my friends and family on day-to-day events as well as my jewelry company, http://www.spencermorgandesigns.com/. I'll let you know...
