Lomapäivät meni nauttien aurinkoisista päivistä, löhöten, laiskotellen. Ihan parasta! Lapset piirtelivät katuliiduilla kun vähän jo pilkottaa kivetystä lumen alta. Samalla viihdytin itseäni harjoittelemalla kameran manuaalisia asetuksia auringossa.
Huh sanon minä. Koko viime kesän - oli eka kesä järkkärin omistajana - kuvasin automaatilla. Nyt olen käyttänyt pitkään oikeastaan ainoastaan manuaalisia asetuksia ja varjossa ja talven harmaudessa se on ollut ihan helppoa, mutta kun aurinko paistaa ja luo varjoja ja kirkasta valoa niin eipä olekaan enää helppoa. Siis mulle. Osa kuvista ihan puhkipalaneita tai ihan mustia. Äh, no ei saa luovuttaa, pitää vain kokeilla ja jatkaa harjoitusta. Vinkkejä parempiin aurinkokuviin otetaan vastaan!
While kids had fun with their chalks I practised manual settings. It is so hard when sun is shining. I love shooting when it's cloudy. Well, I can't give up now. Just need more practising. I'm not going back to automatic, no way. But I must say that it was much easier during winter time when it was so grey.

Meilla on myos piirrelty ahkerasti ulkona liiduilla. Ne on ihan parhaat viihdykkeet! :)
Wonderful collection of photos. Nothing says spring like sidewalk chalk.
I love the close up shot. And now I think I need to get a bucket of chalk.
Tulipa kesäinen fiilis näistä kuvista :)!
This brought back some great memories of me and my friends playing hop scotch after we had drawn the maze. The chalks now for children are even better...love the chalk flower.
This is so fun! :)
Kyllä, jaksaa itsekin piirrellä. :D
Thanks Janine! <3
Thanks Tima! <3
Kiitos Tarja! <3
Oh - hopscotch was so fun!!! :D
Hurray for sidewalk chalk... and hurray for going manual!
Thank you. <3
The pictures came out very good. Great for you for sticking to it. I love sidewalk chalk as much as the kids do.
These are fantastic photographs! Each of them is a little story!
Simple, bold and very captivating! Amazing photography!
Keep going with manual because the rewards are big! However, your images are always wonderful. I never would have guessed they were shot on auto. You are a great photographer.
You are doing well in manual and sidewalk chalk is so fun. Great job!
Your photos are always beautiful. I'm surprised you weren't in manual. You do so well on automatic -- can't wait to see what your photos will look like in the future! I love how the children are playing in the sun, with the bits of snow along the side. :)
My children used to play with sidewalk chalk when they were younger. Fond memories.
Thanks Kara!! <3
Thank you Kaya! <3
Thanks Kim! <3 I started shoot manual last autumn. But it's been so easy during the winter but I found this brightness very difficult. :)
Thanks Nicki!!! <3
Thank you Sharon! <3 I've been using manual settings now 'bout half year. Last summer was my first summer with DSLR after pocket camera so I used auto settings. It's been quite easy to find right settings during winter time but now that it's so bright it's much more difficult.
Thank you Mrs. T. <3
I love coloured chalks! It's a big part of my childhood, too :)
I'm guilty of using the automatic option most of the times, hihihi.
Thank you so much. <3
oh I miss those days with my children when they were small. beautiful photos!
Thanks Laura. <3
Beautiful photos, I'm always too busy drawing with the chalk to use my camera =]
