Fun With Friends

Last week Wednesday,I had the special privilege of spending the afternoon with two teenage friends of mine.Both of these girls enjoy photography so we wanted to get out and have some fun with our cameras.

The afternoon started out with a light drizzle,but we were determined to have a good day and a little water was not going to stop us.We headed off to A Rocha,hoping for the skies to clear a little.

This shows the valley the way it looked when we got there.The mist made it look like a fog.This had a special beauty to it,but as photographers we would have welcomed a little sunshine.
Not to be deterred we made the best of the situation.

At the house the four Hummingbird feeders were very busy.It seems like they all wanted to feed at the same feeder,so there was constant jousting and bickering among them.
 Momentarily ,these three declared a truce so that they could get some nourishment.

Sydney,Abby and I set out into the woods,looking for photo opportunities,which we found many of.
The raindrops on the leaves caught my attention,while the girls found other sights to capture.

Neither of them had been at A Rocha before so they quite enjoyed nature's beauty.
I loved to see the enthusiasm they had about being out in nature.

We did not go very far down the trails,as we didn't want to get caught in a real rain,but even the short walk yielded many pretty images.It really is beginning to look like fall with those yellow leaves around.

Our day ended with the girls coming to my house for supper. On the way home the talk turned to pancakes.We thought that the rainy weather was perfect for pancakes,so we decided to make crepes at my house.What fun this was!
Unfortunately,we were so hungry that I never took time to get pictures of our supper.
I can only hope that Sydney and Abby enjoyed the day half as much as I did.I would be ready to do it again any time.
Thanks girls for the fun time we had.
