If there’s one thing my niece is used to, it’s me following her around with my camera. I have been doing a photo a day project since the first day of 2018, and a photo a week project in 2017. So, that’s a lot of months of me always showing up and having my camera. And often turning it towards her.
I recently went to SummerFest, so of course the camera came out. I never thought about it much before, but at this outdoor celebration of Summer it occurred to me that perhaps at times it might look like she has her own personal photographer following her everywhere.
But how can you not want to photograph this face or that balloon hat?
So, here are a handful of photos taken with the new Nikon Z6 as I followed my niece around while still learning what this new camera can do…
Darts!
We said hi to our pals Hello Newman.
So after glitter tattoos, darts, a train ride, pony ride, saying HI to Hello Newman, kettle corn and fried Oreos, we found some hula hoopers and took turns with their extra hoop. Which was ridiculously fun and also a great test for the new camera and to see what I can get it to do.
Pretty much a perfect Summer night.
And I have to say, the niece has got some serious hula hoop skills!
