Rollin'

Ah, the fun of summer! Now they are back in school, and that's fun, too. I'm glad my kids like school, and I'm glad they can play like kids, like rolling down the hill in the front yard. Sometimes I wish I was that carefree.

Did You Think That Was Fast?

Another in my series of Jonathan. This probably would be classified a "bad" photo, but I like the motion.

What Can I Do Next?

"Bet you can't guess what I'm about to do...."

Hi!

Isn't my son gorgeous?

Update Oct 8, 2005: Submitted for Photo Friday's theme "5". Wasn't it great being 5 years old?

Vine Lines

Posted for PhotoFriday "Chaos." I am more of a symmetry-seeing person, so I don't have many photos that would be chaotic. This is vine on the granite rocks near Stone Mountain, Georgia.

Pensive

I'm not sure why I like this shot, since it started out all blurry, but something about the "soft focus" and the monochrome treatment appeals to me. I didn't ask my daughter if she liked it!

Fire Fighter

A day at the park...a little catch, a little playground time...nothing beats it.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of MexiPickle. I hope the next year offers more photo opportunity and much more growth in my skills.

Green & Orange

A detail shot from a poster hanging in a restaurant we like. This might be weird, but I like the colors.

Still working on the focusing with the new lens. Not having much luck!

Giggles

Just a few minutes to play after work one night...the kids were rolling down the hill in the front yard. A giggly time, for sure!

Yellow

The first macro shot from my new lens. I'm not sure about the focusing on this one, but I do like the colors. It will take a lot of practice to get the DOF right and the focusing dead on. Maybe I'll have time in September!
By the way, this is my 150th post; the first anniversary of this site will be later this month.

Sky and Trim

Taken at dinner the other night, using my new 70-300 mm zoon lens, with macro capability. I'll be taking bad pictures close up for a while...maybe I'll have something worth posting! :)
