261/365 # You, me and baby makes three

We took the kids out for the day to Bicton park in Devon - a good chance to let them blow off some steam and let me take some photos!

 

And I thought this photo was the most appropriate one for today because today I felt the baby kick for the first time. So here's me, Lydia and Ralph doin' the touristy thing.

 

I spotted someone around with a D300 while I was taking this shot - mmm . . . sweet camera envy . . .

 

And this shot is lit using the flash on camera for a change, so no Strobist info tonight. I wish I could remember the exact settings, best guess is probably the flash was at full power, I know the aperture was stopped down to f13 to control the exposure. And then obviously a Lightroom preset plus some little tweaks to get the shot how I wanted it.

 

I used the flash on camera a lot today, and I was surprised how effective it was. Definitely an eye-opener for me.

 

We had a lot of fun today.

 

Officially one of my favourite 365s - big on black is better
