Fun filled weekend has come to an end...

Well Sundays are the worst aren't they?? LOL! Like all thing my wonderful weekend must come to an end. I started off the weekend by traveling to Monatuk ( the very tip of long island) With one of my dearest friends Dawn ( check out dmg_art.com) after getting caught in traffic for 2 hours we arrived at our destination, where we took tons of pictures relaxed and took in the beautiful views....




After Montauk we headed into Sag Harbor to check out the village and get some grub! Dinner was AMAZING! We found a little seafood shack and enjoyed our dinner on the water.
( you always find the best food in these little places!!)



Saturday the hubby & I spent the day out with the dog ( she gets a day at the dog park each weekend as well!) Then after dinner we went out to Robert Moses State Park and sat on the beach and watched a beautiful sun set together! <3>

Last but not least Sunday...Hubby an I spent the day at Sunken Meadow State Park. I had never been there before and can not wait to go back! Today we just hung at the beach because it was so hot out! Next time hopefully we can walk the Hiking Trails!





So there was my awesome 3 day weekend in word and photos! Now i have to get ready to start a new work week boohoo!! Stay tuned..........

Welcome to my blog!

Hey everyone! Welcome to my blog!

Let me start by telling you a little about myself....

My name is Heather (duh!) i currently reside in Bethpage NY ( long Island). If you are familiar with the area then you know there are many photo opportunities here! I have always loved to take pictures but it was always of friend and family. A few years back i got into birdwatching and started trying to get pictures of them. This was my first attempt at bird photography it was taken in my back yard with a little point and shoot...



I thought it came out great at the time lol then I started hunting for birds to photograph and my little point and shoot didn't seem to cut it. So about 2 years ago I upgraded to an Olympus evolt-500 LOVE IT!!!!! My pics come out great! I am just now starting to play with manual, but I still prefer auto...probably because its what I am used to! Now every weekend my husband and I go somewhere I can take pictures, I take it everywhere with me (just incase, you never know when you will need a camera!) so I went from dark little shots of my downy woodpecker to awesome pictures of lakes, sunsets and better pictures of my little bird friends :)

A few months back someone messaged me on facebook telling me how they loved my pictures and was wondering if I would sell her a few of them! I was so excited that someone thought that much of my pictures....after that I decided to see what i can do with this! lol I now have my facebook page, twitter page, selling photos on ebay and also i have a store through vendio. Hopefully I can do something with this!! I have other projects in the works as well like postcards, calenders, and a few other things I will keep to myself for now!










So i guess that's about it! I will be updating this with each outing and hopefully someone out there enjoys it!!!
