Color Blind

Its that time again, coloring Easter Eggs! Always an adventure at our house. This year will be more challenging and fun since Lia will be joining us, last year she slept through the first round. Yeah we had to do this twice. The first time went great, the twins had fun and I got some great pics. Then Lia woke just in time for us to go to cvs and get the kids photo with E bunny! We got home and all 12 eggs were gone. Our labs Rio and Rosco got on the table and chomp chomp, gone in 60 seconds. I'm guessing it was that quick, usually is when food is involved. Dogs are color blind i guess so it wasn't the bright colors that attracted them but the smell. I'm guessing those eggs were gone before i drove out of the driveway. Needless to say we will be putting the eggs up high to dry this time.

My Girls

So i was thinking, how do i start this blog? Think of an interesting story. Easier said than done. But i think i have a few. This one is about My Girls. Those 3 in the picture. The picture that won 3rd place in a local competition last year. It is my favorite of them. Them being my daughters, from left, Ava, Lia and Ella. I suppose the judges may have seen 3 cute kids, or maybe they liked the fact i enlarged the photo to 16x20. I'm hoping they saw the absolute comfort and love these girls, my girls, were showing eachother and to the photographer- yours truly as my dad would say. I mean, isn't that what really makes the photo, the connection the composer has to the subject? I guess i have it easy w/these 3. They are sooo photogenic and obviously comfortable w/the camera. Had to be since i've been shoving it their faces since they were born. Rarely does a viewer think of the photographer when looking at a picture. Unless its an Ansel Adams or Annie Leibovitz, your just looking at the subject. But when i view this one i'll be thinking of the love they have for me, daddy.
