Keenen Brown's photostream  

My baby boy turns 6 months today! It feels like it was just yesterday when we used to carry him, so tiny and so cuddly. Nowadays, he's much bigger, can sit up longer with no support from his Mommy or Daddy, and still cuddly as ever!

Daylight savings time ended last weekend and we all get an extra hour of sleep :-)

But besides that, the color of leaves around us have been changing quite fast and winter is almost around the corner. I could vaguely remember summer time and it felt like it just breezed through. So before the long winter officially sets in, I managed to step outside and catch a nice light falling off on this leaf in the front yard with some droplets laying on top of it.

Happy macro Wednesday everybody!

With my backdrop still assembled, my wife's best friend Melissa agreed to join in our photo session during the Halloween weekend. She's also an avid photographer and a very easy-going gal.

The setting I used is the same as the shot I did for Jordan's profile pic for his Twitter account, but applied a very subtle, natural post processing, instead of the gritty, hard-edged look. I have more shots of her that I need to edit but here's the first one that I finished. Been kinda feeling sluggish and lazy these past few days because of the weather. But in any case, this one's out and done :-)

Jordan's a big sports fanatic and one of the teams he roots for is Vancouver's own CFL team, the BC Lions. He wanted to use this one for his Twitter account to support his beloved team during the final stretch of the regular season and on to the playoffs.
