Is Mariposa your real name, or do you just like butterflies? That is what it means, isn't it? Welcome.
No its not my real name but a close friend of the family nicknamed me Mariposa (yes it does mean butterfly) because they said it was much like my personality. :) I thought it was really sweet so I use it as a username whenever possible.
Welcome to UHH. I have on observation as the parent of a 35 and a 40 year old. You will have many, many, many pictures of the first child and not so many if any of the the second child. Of course with child two we were sleep deprived... he was not the easy child.
Our third child is our only girl soo i think she is actually getting more photos then the firstborn. lol
Hello, With much anticipation and reservation I'm posting these pictures that I have taken. At the end of May is when i started learning the basics of photography and I'm VERY very much a beginner. I'm posting to receive constructive criticism I know I have a long ways to go but I have to start somewhere. Also i apologize ahead of time it has been exceptionally rainy here so most of my photos have water droplets on them I realize that it is a nice effect just didn't want you to think i was already in a rut when almost all of them have it. :) Thank you for looking and I look forward to your critiques.
Hello, I am very new to photography having just started learning the logistics of it in May of this year. I have a Nikon D5100 18-55mm lens and a speedlight sb-700. I stalked UHH for almost 3 weeks reading the posts every day and then realized that yes it really was free so I signed up. To be completely honest however the information I'm learning is helping me so I probably would have paid a small fee if I had been asked. But they didn't and it is too late now! I'm very uncertain and nervous about my photos so it will probably be aWHILE before I ever post one lol. But all means keep posting yours I LOVE looking at them. :) Look forward to reading your questions and answers, mariposa
Wow beautiful throw aways... note to self never post my pics they are all junk compared to these! lol Btw I'm really enjoying all the information I'm learning from this site thank you. keep posting!
