Fall


2010
11.23

Fall is the theme for Shutter Love Tuesday. I had to go back through the zillions of photos I’ve taken over the past few Falls to find one I liked enough to post. Unfortunately where we are living now there aren’t as many “zing” type of Autumn colors. And I have to say that even our cottonwood trees were a dud this time around. BUT I found this “old” picture that had a little of the Fall “pow” to it that I love! :-) Someday I’ll make it to New England in the Fall. I’d love that!
October has been my favorite month ever since I was in Elementary school! Walking around in the Colorado mountains crunching the fallen leaves was so much fun! :-) Raking them into piles and then jumping in and throwing them all over were great memories too!
Hope you’re having a fabulous fall! You can see more of the photos and vote for your fave by clicking the button on the bottom.

This week’s shutter love Tuesday is outtakes. :-) Sorry to traumatize y’all with this photo again. I know I’ve published it before for something, but it totally cracks me up!!

I was trying to get a picture of the brothers when Myles had this major spit-up right as I snapped the photo! Talk about outtakes! Yucky! At least he looks happy behind all of that! Ha ha ha!!

This week’s Shutter Love theme is laughter! How can you narrow down all the great laughing babies/kids pictures for that??? I decided to go with this one, just cause it’s one of my favorite people in the whole wide world, and I just love this kid’s glee in getting to “swing.” :-)

And you know what that means!! Shutter Love!! Ha ha ha! This week’s theme is “nature” and of course I have a ZILLION photos that I could possibly use. I chose this one though because I just love the perspective. Besides it makes me think of lazy summer days lying on cool grass and listening to the leaves rustle. :-)

Dizzy!

This week for Shutter Love Tuesdays the theme is “Friendship.” I had SEVERAL photos that I really wanted to use, but finally just picked this one! This was during our second summer at camp and Qade was just 13 months old. One day Wally came over to play with us in the yard, and they had quite the time together. Wally is all ears and long legs, big feet and tail. He had to be one of the gangliest dogs I’ve ever known, but he was amazingly gentle with our little one! I was shocked at the difference in him. This shot of touching noses, just speaks friendship to me. Hope ya like it! :-) You can see other friendship photos and vote for your fav by clicking on the button at the bottom. Toodles!

Today at Shutter Love Tuesdays the theme is Mommies! Of course!! It would HAVE to be. :-) I thought of this picture right away. I love the way it turned out, and I LOVE the fact that its my littlest love’s tiny feet in my hand! They grow so fast that it’s hard to remember just how tiny they ever were. *sigh* Anyway, here’s my entry for this week. You can click on the button at the bottom if you’d like to vote for my pic, or any of the other pics, and see what other people’s “mom” pictures look like.

Today is “Shutter Love Tuesday” again. Amazing how fast a week can go! This weeks theme is children. I have to say that I thought of this photo the second I saw the theme. Simply because this is the reality of children and cameras! Ha! We took probably 15 or more shots with 2 cameras trying to get a decent shot with the grandparents and cousins. Well… most of them looked like this with one or more of the lads screaming their heads off. Maybe it was too close to bed time to attempt a nice portrait, but it made for a good memory anyway. I crack up every time I look at this picture. :-D So here it is, my “Reality of Children” entry. Ha ha ha!!

A friend of mine linked to this blog on HER blog, and it’s a photo sharing blog/contest. None of these “contests” win anything but the accolade of being “picked.” Which hasn’t happened yet, but I keep hoping!! Besides it’s lots of fun and I get inspiration by looking at other’s photos. The theme for this particular Tuesday is “water.” It’s not something we see here in AZ too much actually! But I thought the droplets that I shot captured perfectly in the little leaves after rain was pretty cool! We might not have vast ocean front property, or deep delving lakes, but Arizona gets it’s water in little droplets and is thankful for each one! :-) You can VOTE for my photo or any of the other photos on the site that strike your fancy if you click on the button at the bottom. Happy Tuesday!
