Rainbow Spring Flowers

April showers bring a rainbow of flowers!

A few weeks ago Jaymi posted about a rainbow of flowers. When we went to Gartenshau Kaiserslautern yesterday, I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to share my rainbow of flowers I captured! 

Last time we went there I posted about the beautiful Autumn leaves and pumpkin animals! Looking back, how did I survive before my D7000?!?!

Most of these shots are completely SOOC (straight out of the camera). Only a few have some slight cropping and that's it! (Of course I added my watermark to them, just in case.) It was a gorgeous day full of gorgeous Spring flowers!

Doesn't this rainbow of flowers just scream April!! 

It's perfect for You Capture/Spring this week.

P.S. For those of you that weighed in on my zoom lens dilemma,  I'm patiently awaiting my zoom lens to arrive. After careful consideration and much searching and reading reviews I decided on the Nikon 70-300mm. My next lens....I want a macro, and I already have one picked out!!! :)

Mustache March & Mood Change Nailpolish!

This week I thought I would share a few things. First up I want to introduce you to something called "Mustache March". I don't know if it's a military thing, or just a dorky guy thing, but some of the guys are using the month of March as a chance to grow a mustache.

I snapped this picture of my husband with is new mustache that's a few days old. It's kind of creepy but now he has to keep growing it because, well, because now I'm curious! Are any of your guys out there doing this??

(yea, it's ok if you're a little creeped out too, it makes me chuckle though)

My sister recently sent me 2 bottles of Claire's Mood Change nail-polish! It's so fun and wacky! This one works the best. It changes from a dark blue to a fun blue turquoise color. It chips easily so it usually doesn't last very long but it's so fun!

I can barely stifle a laugh when Ariana gives us, (or her toys) her "mad face" Seriously check out that adorable scrunched forehead!! And those eyes, man!!! She makes me laugh so hard some days!

I'm linking these up with You Capture - Body Parts this week for the photo challenge.

-Creepy Mustaches

-Funky Fingernails

-Mad/Cute Foreheads

There you have it.

I was having a blah day today so tonight I'm treating myself to a spa night at home. Avacado hair mask, mint julep face mask, and a new manicure! That'll cheer me up! 

Much love!!

You Capture: Technology

This was the one and only thing I could think of technology-wise that didn't involve me lining up our phones, ipods, games, and other electronic devices.

I told my husband what I wanted my picture to look like, and he happily helped me find what I was looking for. He took apart one of our old cell phones to reveal this chip/motherboard/whatchamacallitthingy.

I appreciate it hon.

This is yet another link up to You Capture, and another test of my reverse ring.

It's not the best picture...I was having trouble focusing. I did get some much better shots outside of a flower bud but that's for another post another day.

It'll have to do for now.

L is for...
