I am so excited to have come this far in only a year and a half... but I want more. And I need help to get there.
Asking for help is extremely painful for me. It's one of my many many flaws.

A workshop came up that is, er... as humbly as I can say it, most likely not the right choice for me. But they're drawing for a free seat in the class. Free is good. And to enter you have to post a photo with a window in it.

So I hauled the kids into my bedroom and took these yesterday.
And I'm glad I did.
Even though I didn't wash my windows first. Real life, I won't apologize.
Look! I even got all three in one picture! (sort of)

I am so blessed to have this time at home with my kids, to have a handful of quiet moments in which to read and learn. So thankful for my supportive husband who pushes me onward in this hobby.
Where to go from here? That is the question.

Perhaps you just need to take more pictures. JK - I love these photos.
I love these! You have such a talent, the lighting is perfect!
I hear you completely on asking for help, I feel the same way. I found a site called “betterphoto.com” but am not sure if it’s the right one or not. Let me know what you come up with!
I know how you feel. I've been quite bored with my photos, but I don't really know what to do to get out of my rut. I'd like to take a "real" photography class, but for now I have to make do with the free stuff that I find on-line. I did (and will again) sit through a weekend long free conference through creative live. (I think it's creativelive.com) It's only free if you watch it live, and it lasts ALL DAY LONG, so even without little kids to deal with, it was hard for me to catch it all, but what I did catch was totally worth it. This weekend they're talking to Jasmine Star about setting up a wedding photography business. I have absolutely no interest in being a wedding photographer, but I'm going to sit in on it as much as possible because I'm sure that there are always things that I can take and apply to my own life. (That's what I found when I sat in on the last one.)
Sheesh... I've been feeling quite non-communicative lately and then I go and write this book of a comment! Guess I'm back to talking! :)
