First Shot with New Camera

OK, it's really the second, and I have no idea what setting it was even on, but I love it.

I can't wait to shoot more.

Horse Show

This is not the best picture ever, but it does show my girl in action, and is the best I could muster today. Sorry to be whiny, but I don't think I've ever felt less like posting a picture for this project than I do today. This is requiring some serious stamina!

p.s. This was after a fall, and she got right back on and finished the course. Points for that!

ANTM?

Fierce!

Eat your veggies.

Toby, the widower of Chloe and Jade. I thought he would be sad by himself, but he seems quite happy. And, as you can see, he still has his appetite.

Little Girl, Little Dog

Ok, so the girl is not so little any more...but I will always think of her that way.

Photo Essay: Lips

July Extra: Iron Maiden

I took this shot and photoshopped it for my daughter to put on her blog, but I like it so much (so very her) that I wanted to have it in the record. :)

Fifteen

Could it really be that many years since he arrived in our lives?

I guess so, because here he is with his brand new laptop. He saved for three years and we matched his saved amount as a birthday present.

new trick up my sleeve

selective saturation and desaturation -- more here.

squeeze!

Me and the little dog, she is always a good cure for whatever ails me. This photo was taken by Equus (daughter).

2 little treasures found on my flash card today

Apparently my very adorable and creative girl borrowed the camera for a photo shoot.

You're a regular decorated emergency. Camisado, Panic! At the Disco

People Mover

We took a trip into the city today, to peruse the National Gallery of Art. Here we are on the People Mover in the tunnel between the East and West Galleries. It was a wonderful visit and I will blog about it tomorrow, with more pictures of course, on Ampersand's Space.

Porch Vacation

Gracie and I had a wonderful porch vacation this morning.

Little Dog

My Boy

Well, he's not really a boy anymore, but you know what I mean.

I'll try to limit my photoshop mods to the weekends, just so I don't go crazy, but I can't make any promises : ).

Collaboration

My daughter did some creative things with her makeup (white mascara!!) and clothes, I did the photo shoot (used the night shot exposure to get some interesting results) and then played with my new toy: Photoshop Elements. Too much fun!

Perhaps we have been watching too much America's Top Model?

My Girl
