I Heart Faces - Completely Candid

Another post for the I ♥ Faces weekly photo challenge. I just love this site! It is really making me think about my pictures in new ways and teaching me great editing tips/tricks. Checking out all the submissions provides me with loads of inspiration each week.


The theme this week is completely candid. I thought this picture of my daughter Allie was perfect. It was taken during a Labor Day getaway to my brother and sister-in-law's house. We were getting ready for dinner and Allie seemed to be enjoying her task! I love the sun reflecting on her wild and crazy hair,which is down and wind blown in her favorite fashion and the happy, content smile captured on her face. Just one of the many blessings in my life!

Hello Blog World....

Just thought I would start a blog to post some of my favorite pics and have a holding place for participating in photo and scrapbooking contests. If you are viewing this page you found my blog somehow.... hope you enjoy what you see.

This first picture is of my neice and being posted for the I 'Heart' Faces weekly contest (couldn't figure out how to actually put the heart image in there). The subject matter was contemplative and this picture jumped out at me. I've always wondered what babies are thinking and reflecting upon when they get that far away gaze. I can see the reflection of 'big' people in her eyes and wonder what she thinks of the world from her unique view.
