Photo Friday - 'Softness'

SPC - 'tiny words' - #1

For the month of November, Self Portrait Challenge is borrowing the concept of the Flickr group, tiny words.

Beyond that, the theme is nearly a free-for-all. I'm looking forward to a wide variety of ideas from this creative bunch of folks!

Halloween 2009

Hannah's is on the left -- Harrison's is on the right.

Hannah drew her face on the pumpkin and I didn't follow the drawing. The eyes and nose are in the right places, but increased in size slightly. You might be able to see her Sharpie mark for the mouth between the carved mouth and nose. I have been admonished by Hannah for stretching it out a bit and adding teeth. The teeth have since been removed.

Harrison did not draw on his pumpkin as his drawings still lean towards the abstract which is difficult to carve into a pumpkin. He said he wanted his pumpkin to be "grumpy." We have all agreed that my render of "grumpy" leans a bit too far into "angry" territory. Nonetheless, I have not been admonished by the Boy, so I'm calling it a victory! :-)



"May we help you?"


Fireman Harrison


Nurse Hannah


We had a 'Trunk or Treat' event at our church last Sunday night and Hannah and Harrison's cousin, Katherine, came too. She was a veterinarian, so we had three service-oriented little people in our family this year!

This is the Jack O'Lantern I carved for Harrison. He said he wanted it to be "grumpy." I wasn't sure how to pull off "grumpy" so this is what I did. He says it's "angry" and he's probably right. Oh well.

More Jack O'Lantern and Halloween photos later this week (hopefully!)

Photo Friday - 'Autumn 2009'

Since they only accept one, this top one was my pick for Photo Friday this week:


Since it's my blog and I can do whatever I want to, here are a few more photos from Autumn 2009:

Photo Friday - '...is in the details'

A mysterious theme over at Photo Friday: '...is in the details'

Not sure what they were going for, but it looks like they're getting a lot of macro shots.

Here's mine:
