Right now this is my favourite photo. Next week I’ll probably have another.

The focus. light and colour aren’t perfect. There’s just something about it, maybe it’s the subject?
I was going to guess and tell you that I took it this summer. Mostly because Georgia is wearing a tank top in the photo. However, today she is wearing bikini bottoms and a tank top and it’s just a degree above freezing (HUH?). I double checked my exif data and it was taken in late September.
I took a whole series of these. They’re on flickr –> Show Girl.

Who can turn the world on with her Smile?
Who can take a nothing day, and suddenly make it all seem worthwhile?
Well it’s you girl, and you should know it

Every time I look at the large image of Georgia walking down the street. I start singing the Mary Tyler-Moore theme song. The image ‘IS’ Georgia.
I thought I ought to let you all know, she isn’t difficult ALL the time.
Questions for you: If your kiddo had a theme song, what would it be?
My NOVEL is coming along –> 20368 of 50000. It’s a romance and it’s complete and utter rubbish! Gotta love it! I’m pretty darn sure it’ll never be mass produced. I’m plodding along, nevertheless.

I have several hard-drives full of photos. For every 100 I take, I generally like 3 or 4 and it’s only those few that I process and upload to Flickr.com. I’ve been going through them and finding images that I love (now), I remember being disappointed when I took them. They weren’t what I wanted or expected in terms of lighting and composition. Now that I have forgotten what that was, I see something else there …

A sweet child.
The world’s best dad.
They make each other happy.
I probably like these photos now, because I’d forgotten that this next photo was taken just a few moments prior.

How do you deal with ALL of your digital images? What should I do with all my photos? Any suggestions?

I’ve mentioned Canmore before. We love it. The scenery. We love it.
Everyday we walk downtown, along the wooden boardwalk, along a sleepy creek. Did I mention that we love it?
I can’t help, but stop to photograph flowers in the meadow.

It’s bright and sunny.
The kids interrupt, “can we play in the creek”.
“Sure, but don’t get your clothes wet”, I say.

It was -39 with windchill this morning. (This is not a post about the weather. Honest!) I mention it only, because it makes the fact that Georgia wore her swimsuit all day, that much more odd. I shivered every time I looked at her. I wore polar fleece and decided to this wasn’t a battle I needed to fight (or win). Goosebumps never killed anyone right?!

Here is my oddball in colour. This is also my 365Project photo for the day.

Here she is again in black and white.
I keep trying to ‘do’ black and white, but I always end up liking the colour versions better. How about you, do you prefer colour, or black and white?
I’ll be announcing the ‘Happy Book Day to You ~ the Series winner shortly’ make sure and check to see if you are the winner.
