The blog silence betwixt this post and this post was due to a vacation. Not mine, but the children's. They went off to Puerto Rico for two weeks with a pair of grandparents and H and I were left to our own devices. It was the longest we've been without children since D came along fourteen years ago.
An outsider might think we had ourselves a second Honeymoon...but they'd be wrong. This ship is set up for a crew of four and the absence of two left the First Mate (that's me) exhausted trying to keep this ship afloat. Thank goodness for a Captain who helped pick up the slack. So, while I did suffer a tinge of Empty Nest Syndrome, I was frankly too tired most of the time to pay it any mind.
While I was working like a pack mule, my girl got a chance to put her Christmas gift to use and came back with some lovely photos - if I do say so myself. These are three of my favorites:



Some more of D's photos are over at Flickr. As for the children, they're now home safe and sound and I'm nearly recovered from their vacation.










What a talented photographer! I'm not sure if you are interested in 4-H where you live, but our Mississippi 4-H has great photography contests.
ah, love the building's appearance on the third pic... some really interesting textures.
Great photography! I really love the photos of kids in Puerto Rico. This is also a great entry for the young kid’s photography contents. Keep up the good work!
Hello, I don't know how to get to the comments on the art section. The Titian painting, The Pilgrims of Emmaus, is not in the Louvre. It is in Liverpool. The Louvre does have a painting by Titian with the same title but it is different. The most obvious difference is the pilgrim on the right who, in the Louvre painting, is at the table end.
