Can you believe that the last official weekend of summer is here? It seems like just a few weeks ago the season was just beginning. As sad as I am to see the warm weather, sunshine, and blooming flowers go, I do always welcome the fall season.....at least until the leaves are all gone from the trees and the weather gets cold! I've got some great fall posts coming in the next few weeks that I'm really excited about. But for today, I'm sharing some more of my favorite links. Have a great weekend!

As a blogger, I am constantly trying to find ways to make my photography better. One of the problems I have is trying to take pictures of things that I make in good natural light without a distracting background. There is perfect natural light in my dining room, but I don't have large sections of bare wall available without moving heavy furniture and decorations. I don't mind taking the time to move things around if I'm taking pictures of a piece of furniture or something large, but it is time consuming to move everything for one small product shot. And normally, by the time I get everything moved around and set up, the light has moved on.
