Brick House 129twigandvine Pioneer Woman Photography Photography is all about exposure, or the light that is allowed to be let in when a photo is taken. Learning how to adjust exposure to get the effect you’re looking for is one of the things all photographers have to eventually learn, and one of the easiest examples of this is taking a photo of a silhouette against a sunrise or sunset. In the photo above, I exposed for the sky. “Exposing for the sky” means I told my camera that I wanted to capture all the beauty and color variations of the sky and not to worry about letting enough light in to see my baby. In this case, I took the easy road and simply dialed back the exposure compensation until it let in less and less light…to the point that I was satisfied that it was capturing the sunset accurately. That’s always the decision when you have a subject against a setting or rising sun: Do I want to capture the detail of the subject? Anyway, short little lesson this morning. Photographers, please feel free to weigh in! Love, P-Dub

Reclaiming Provincial emmas designblogg - design and style from a scandinavian perspective damask love | craft is in session Are people stick rocking mullets? Is that still happening? I lived in North Carolina for a “spell” and saw my fair share of mullets. (Note: as best as I can tell “a spell” is the most ambiguous measurement of time known to man. Somewhere between a few minutes and a few years. I seriously love the south). Now, ever since I moved to Miami, mullets have been replaced with fake butts – which I see on a daily basis. Thing is – mullets and fake butts are sort of the same thing. Today’s cards are the mullets of crafting. If “partial die-cutting” is greek to you – check out THIS post from the archives to get an idea of how it works.
