Pondering Leaf

It's amazing to me just how different each of these three photos is.  Taken within seconds of each other, girl barely moving, camera barely moving, and yet each is so different and holds a completely different mood.

I was showing my girl these photos of her beautiful self, and I said, "Looks like you're pondering...."

She replied, "Yeah! It's called...... "


Pondering Leaf


Finding it fascinating that she would name a photo of herself, like artwork (Ok - not just fascinating - I think it's awesome that she's still young enough to be completely matter of fact about her own beauty)  I asked her what the next photo was called... this one?

Eye Smile



When we got to this last one, I said to her,  "It looks like you've got a little smirk in this one..."

She quickly replied, "No!  It's not a smirk, it's a ......."

Smurf Smile


A smurf smile!  If I hadn't fully melted in the presence of such sweetness, that was it for me.  

Mama delight.

Tunnel vision.....

I haven't been posting much at all - and that is pretty much due to tunnel vision.  I've gotten so focussed on learning photography, that it's pretty much all I think about these days.  I keep not posting, thinking I might just be boring everyone with all my photos.  I'm not going to post fluff for the sake of posting - if I have nothing to say than I have nothing to say...... but maybe I should just post the photos anyway, even if only to make the grandparents happy ;)  I guess it's my blog, and I can post what I like, so I'm just going to go with that ;)

7 days. Just me.

This past week I went on my first solo adventure in over a decade.  It was about time, and so so good.
