lots of chocolates for me to eat.

Here are some pictures I took of some divine little truffles, made by my friend kathy. They are so pretty, you hardly want to eat them. . . but them you taste them, and it's all over. . . because they are so very, very yummy. I'm hoping she will make some for our piper and chloe showcase--because don't you think a little box of these would make a perfect mother's day gift?!

Next. I really am enjoying my new-ish camera and learning a little about photography as I plug along. (which isn't hard since i knew nothing before. except what i learned in my 4H photography class when i was eleven. and that mostly revolved around how to take trick pictures. . . not pertinent.) So, I really wish I knew a couple of things. First, I wish I knew how to adjust the exposure. So many of my pictures are too dark and i have to edit them to get them the way I want. Second, how to crop in an aesthetically pleasing way. Are they any special "rules" to follow? That's all. If you have this knowledge and feel inclined to share, don't hesitate.
