One Photo from Each Month: 2014 Edition
ISO: 50 
Posted By: K McCall, 01-01-2015, 03:53 PM

So I've been pretty busy with life lately, but a year ago, I made a New Year's resolution to take one photo each month that I was really proud of. During the course of this past year, my oldest turned three, and I gave birth to a son in June. The pictures are pretty kid-heavy (my apologies!) but hopefully you guys don't mind me sharing them here. I think all were taken with my K-30, and the preponderance were taken with the FA 31; it practically lives on my camera these days. Macro shots were with the D-FA 100mm Macro.

Congrats on the expanding your family. Much more to enjoy & manage on all levels. My son is two years younger than his sister. They have always been good friends, especially as teens now.
Sweet shots too.

Just when I think I have found my favorite I see another photo and change my mind. Great expectations really resonates with me. You have very photogenic children and you are a dab hand with the camera.

Beautiful shots, Keitha! The way you process images is understated, but very eye catching.
