Great shots, Sueanne and that Pizza has made me hungry for one even though it's only breakfast time here; your son is very talented making that from scratch.

I love your timeless sepia shot.

Excuse my ignorance, but what's the CP you mention in your OP?
 
Excellent photos as always, Sue Anne!
Love the JD pics & looks like the kids had a great party!
Your son is quite the chef, pizza looks yummy!
Did the circular polarizer make the Pro1 too heavy to handhold? :P
Thanx for sharing 'em... ;)

Great shots Sueanne. I asked my wife if she'd like to see a sexy picture and showed her your tractors (ala Kenny Chesney), ha. Is that a church behind your place?

Wow, Sue Anne..what a great milestone for you and your daughter, and what a fun day you all had!! I love the hay bale shots. You're now the mother of a teenager..it is so much fun, and you will have a lot of joy watching her and her friends blossom into young women.

The generation picture is wonderful! Your son looks like a chef in the making..the pizza looks yummy!

Thanks for sharing this great series. I can imagine you slept well after that day!!! :D

--Great shots and very nostalgic. I owned two 2-cylender tricycle gear JDs. Great tractors with a sound only a JD could make. They did require that heavey flywheel to keek them putting along.

Yes that little boy was so happy to be on the tractor, I bet he will be a farmer when he gets older. :)
Here are a few more if you're interested ...

Glad Stephen you liked the shots,
Pizza can be eaten for breakfast too. :)
Great shots, Sueanne and that Pizza has made me hungry for one even though it's only breakfast time here; your son is very talented making that from scratch.
Yes its very easy to make and I have a simple recipe it only takes 10 minutes to make or less.
I love your timeless sepia shot.
It was the only was to fix an otherwise blown image. :P
Excuse my ignorance, but what's the CP you mention in your OP?
It's a B+W Circular filter I started out to use cause it was a very direct sunny morning and I wanted to cut out the flare from shooting right into the sun. (I did have the EC to 0 from my usual -1/3 but I could shoot better without it I think)

I got various metering darkness to what I wanted by seeing thru the LCD but I was afraid my images were coming out too dark, so I took it off and then later put it back on.
I lost some shots trying to turn the blasted thing right.

Hello John,
Excellent photos as always, Sue Anne!
I try. :)
Love the JD pics & looks like the kids had a great party!
Yup 4 hours is enough time to do everything I hope.

LOL the fun doesn't stop there, we have a part II to the party, a sleepover with 5 of the girls returning. I suppose that is where I get to stay up longer. ;0
Your son is quite the chef, pizza looks yummy!
It was yummy and cheezy.
Did the circular polarizer make the Pro1 too heavy to handhold? :P
LOL
LOL

No the CP was hard to control the amount of light I wanted when metering thru the LCD and then I lost shots cause here I am turning the ring and the tractor passed me.

I was shooting directly into the sun most of the time but when they weren't moving, parked, I could fiddle longer with the CP.
Thanx for sharing 'em... ;)
Thanks for looking.

Thanks royal,

Yes climbing up on the hay was hard work since there was no where no grab well. Finally since some of them are in cheerleading, they decided to use each other's back to climb up.

Pictures were great until after they didn't like hay in their shorts. :)

Thanks for looking....
Climbing up on the hey looks like such fun. Thanks for sharing. :)
