What is my blog for?

I've been asking myself that question every once in a while over the last several weeks.  I haven't updated in a while and even though I have things I could post about, I haven't been able to motivate myself to post about them.  I already scrapbook so I don't really need another medium for recording family happenings.  I had been just posting about any event that had pictures to accompany it, but I'm wondering if that's all it is.  I guess I'd like it to be more on one hand, but it's also time consuming and hard to sit down and get my thoughts out.

I'm really just thinking out loud here, and as I think out loud, I have a sneaking suspicion that it really boils down to the fact that I'm just being lazy.

My dad called to see if I could help him solve a problem he's having with Blogger.  As I was trying to help work it out I uploaded a test picture.  These are the pictures I chose to test with, so I suppose this is what I'd like to post about.

These are pictures I have taken over the last month or so that I'm really proud of and I'm even considering entering them in a photography contest through Jaaromy's employer.  I hope you enjoy them.

This picture was taken from my driveway.  It was still raining so I had to stand under the tree to take it.  I have been dying to see a full rainbow ever since I figured out how to stitch photos together.  Finally, it came.  This is six pictures stitched together.

This one I took just this past full moon.  I wanted to try different settings on my camera to see if I could get a better picture.  I'm not sure if it was the settings or the fact that I forgot I had wanted to take pictures of the full moon and didn't remember until after midnight so the moon was overhead and thus a much clearer shot.  Either way, this is the best picture of the moon I've taken so far.  I'm happy with it.

So, there you go.  I've finally updated my blog and it was something a little different and more personal.
