DailyPhotos > popular today > Will the real Azur please stand up? - Nov 29 2009

Azur is a sister of our border collie Hokami. She has such a special face that I couldn't resist fooling around in photoshop making some more sisters... I just love how the expression of the face changes.
DailyPhotos > popular today > Emma and I took a walk down to Elder's Pond to watch the sunset. There were so many contrails in the sky. We guessed it was a result of so many people getting back home from the long week end. It made for some very artistic strokes in the clouds.
DailyPhotos > popular today > 2009 11-29 Congrats to my dad for finishing the Seattle 1/2 marathon!  And also to my sister in law and brother for doing the full marathon!  Hopefully, once things calm down a bit, I'll get back to training.  

This is another shot of little Ashley.  Doesn't she look cute and serene?  This was about 30 seconds before she went balistic.  My ears are still ringing.

I went out to 'chase' the sunset last night hoping for some good color, and it was a dud.  BUT, on my way back into the neighborhood, I saw this wonderful sight.  Taking a tip from John Bennett, I realized that the fact that it was dusk vs. fully dark might work to my advantage.  So, from the stop sign on a dirt road, I took a round of pictures of this Christmas tree stand.  The boys are asking hourly now when we get to go get our tree.  Probably next weekend, and probably from this stand:-)  

I added some shadows and a vignette.  I have a B&W version in my November (soon to be December) gallery.  I like how the lights overhead make it look like each tree has it's own star:-)  A major highway and a deep ditch runs between me and the trees in this one thus the caution tape.  A few of my shots even had tail/healights in them.  

Thank you for your response on the orchid.  All I can say is...WOW and thank you again.  

The kids and I will be trying to cope with Monday and getting back into the normal routine.  I'm at the stage with this cold where I'm coughing a lot...especially at night.  Maybe in a few more days the cold will just be a bad memory.  I hope so.

HAGD,
Maryann

Cousins

I have attempted to capture a portrait of all the grandchildren for my in-laws for Christmas.  Do you know how hard it is to get seven kids to cooperate even at this age.  Yikes! I like how my son posed with the younger cousins surrounding him, looks like he has a posse! LOL

We're beginning to think Maeve is going to be a girly girl -- she definitely loves her necklaces, sunglasses and (Lady Kate are you paying attention?) her tiara.

Thought I'd help you start your week with a smile. :-)
