DAY# 100& 101!!! Wow time flies by! Freebie alert!

Yesterday I took my 100th photo for Project 365 and I'm still sooo happy I started this whole thing. Like I said the other day: it's not always easy to find a theme or idea for my photos, but it challenges me to look further and I love it!! This week was all about natury things...well my photo for today is anything else but it does include this cute little boy!! Last week when these daffodils came out I knew I had to take my colleagues' little boy Ruben here to take some photos of him. Well yesterday I did!!! He's such a cute little model and he always works with me. Earlier this day I told we were going to take some photos for his mom, well he reminded several times... 'Are we going to the flowers across the street now??' isn't that sweet? :) Well here's my photo for Day #100 day #100

I've been playing with these photos in lightroom all morning, but just couldn't find the right preset and so I just started playing with settings myself and loved how this turned out...and so I made my first ever preset and used it on all my photos. I did played around with the light a bit after worths, but the main feeling I had in my mind for these photos was there! Since this 100th photo is kind of a milestone I decided to give this preset away on my blog here!! isn't that sweet??!! :) Hope you like it!!

Download my first ever made lightroom preset: Daffodil-red here! 

Well here are a couple more photos from our little shoot! :)ruub1-2ruub5-2ruub6-2 ruub9-2  ruub10-2 

Other then my photo for today will be somthing natury I have no clue what it's going to be... hihi. We'll see later on today, I'm just going to make sure ot bring my camera everywhere I'm going!

Edit: got it!! My photo for today that is: Day #101. It has something to do with nature & spring, but I can tell I don't like these little creatures at ALL!! Busg is what I'm talking about... Now with the season change all these little creepy bugs are back too. I went to the parc and this little one sitting on a leave...so I grabbed my macro lens en took this photo...Iiieeek!day #101

Oh did I tell you my guy and I have a week off!!! Yoohoo, we both so need a little break from 'real' life and need some time to ourselves. Since it's easter weekend we both thought, why not stick another week to it and so we did! The weekend is going to start of great, since we're having a easter brunch over at my parents' house tomorrow and so can't wait. I'm going to make some yummy sandwiches and everyone else who's coming will bring something too..the american style! LOL

So that's it for Today, I want to wish everyone a wonderful easter weekend and enjoy spending time with family and loved ones! -xo-

Great shots and congrats on your first preset!!! LOVE the bug shot. My boys cannot wait for more bugs to start coming out. Me, not to sure, but they do make for great photographic opportunities.
