If Stephanie from I Speak Film can take pictures of things in the “man room” in their house, I felt like it was due time I posted my perspective. You see, this room was used for a birthday extravaganza for my husband last weekend.
The guys loaded up the house with four XBOXes (XBOXen?) and even [...]

OK, OK — I’m really bad at this Photo a Day challenge. It’s not that I’m not taking pictures. It’s that I’m too darn busy to upload them to Flickr and then blog about them. But I’m taking pictures. That should count for something, right?

I’ve said before, I sometimes get a little intimidated by all the great photographers around me. How am I supposed to keep up with my little point-and-shoot digital camera?

The Daughter and I got to hang out yesterday with my friend, her new baby and her dog. And since all I’ve been shooting lately is babies (not that that’s a bad thing!), I decided to corner my friend’s gorgeous dog, Jade, for a few close-up shots. It’s true what they say: animals and [...]
