Week 31 WELCOME HOME

My two young friends just returned home from a two week missions trip in India.

Week 29

"Always take a picture with someone in it." How many times did I hear that growing up? Growing up in an age of film and film processing my mom always warned us before we went out with our camera to always have someone in the picture. I wish I had heeded her advice when years later our pictures from our trip to Yosemite were 75% squirrels, 10% mountains and water falls, 5% trees and 5% of my family members. 

And than the miracle of digital photography....AAAhhhhhh....do you see the clouds parting? I don't have to repeat my mom's wise words to my daughter when she snaps 500 pictures of our dogs. I do however find myself telling her to stop eating up my hard drive with said pictures and learn to delete =)

My son plays basketball and last year ordered some pretty cool sic shoes. He kept asking me to take pictures of his shoes. I took plenty of him during the season and tried to get some close ups of his shoes while he was on the court but do you know how hard that is since he is a forward and sprints from one side to the other for the whole game? So I decided one morning to do a photoshoot of his shoes. Sorry mom, it's only the shoes, they are the "someone" in the picture.

       

Sweet Shot Tuesday, Shoot, Edit, Submit

Last week, I was babysitting my little friend here. We were cuddling on the couch watching a show. I noticed the light coming in from the windows and wanted to grab a quick photo. He however was more interested in making silly faces and then look at them on the screen. I caught this one in between all the silly ones.
