Her first purse – part 1

I’m pretty sure she is going to be a girly girl.  She carries her mom’s old purse around all the time.  Often times when small things are missing throughout the house, this is one of the best places to look.

Alignment

I don’t typically take a picture and immediate process it but we were driving home tonight and as we were crossing the railroad tracks, I noticed the alignment of the tracks and the full moon.

P.S.  Another good reason why you should always carry your camera.

I can copycat…

It has been a very busy week and will only get worse next week.  Hopefully, I can get back to posting pics more frequently in the next few weeks.

We have noticed over the past month, that our baby girl is learning the art of “copycatting”.  Here’s an example.

Endless Fountain

Twice a year, I participate in the AO North America Foundations Podiatry Basic Course.  It’s always an honor to be asked to speak and teach.  It’s a busy few days but once in a while I get time to get out and take pics.  Here is the fountain at the hotel we are staying at, Hyatt.

Breakfast time

A friend of mine who was inquiring about my new Leica M Monochrom wondered how much post-processing I’m doing?  Truthfully, the past few days I have used Silver Efex Pro 2 for processing.  The pictures straight out of the camera in RAW are a little flat for my liking but you can easily add a little contrast to make the pictures pop.

Our little girl has to be involved in everything we do.  In the mornings for example, she eats her breakfast, and then she eats her mom’s breakfast, and finally she has to eat her daddy’s breakfast.

P.S. I’ve provided a copy of the original for each of these pics.
