all time fav
Someone asked me recently what my all time favorite photo was... I still think this shot from February, 2009 is it. Isabel reading books with Theo. Simply walked in, saw it and shot it. Nothing staged, just Isabel being Isabel.
Love it :-)
digital cookie
Two of Isabel's favorite things: designing cookies on an app called "Cookie Doodle", and candy canes.
backyard bird
Not exactly a family photo, but given this Barred Owl showed up in our backyard for dinner, I thought he could make a guest appearance on the f/2 Sisters.
bus stop balance
The curb serves as a bus stop balance beam, and as a brief distraction from a chilly morning........"Daaad, I'm cold".
days gone by
A shot from our late August canoe trip looks particularly nice as nighttime temps slide toward the 30° mark.
kool kicks
Love this shot... It's an old photo (last year) of Isabel and her new kicks. I posted it as I went looking for this photo again... Despite backing up my photos in several places, I somehow deleted (my fault) the original file, and all that remains is a low resolution version I emailed at one point :-(
To keep my photos safe I have a working copy, a back up on a local hard drive, and an offsite backup via a service called CrashPlan. Rather than go into detail, check out this article describing a very similar strategy.
A backup plan like this guarantees your photos will be safe... unless you drag them into the trash, as I did.
bonjour butterfly
A finger wet with kool-aide keeps the White Admiral content while Grace takes a closer look.
let the games begin
Isabel wins the gold in the uneven bar (singular, it's not level), with Grace and Clarke taking silver and bronze.
Go world!
swept away
On our walk in the woods today we found yet another bridge swept away by the flood waters of last week. A slippery, half rotten log spanning a swampy area in our backwoods. Don't think the repair crews will make it out there this week - probably a DIY job.
