January Photo a Day Challenge 2012 - fatmumslim

a lovely blogger called Chantelle from fatmumslim has set a wonderful photo challenge. I am a little behind because we have been away on holidays. I have taken the photos - just not posted them. For this month my images will be all from the iPhone.

Photo Challenge {Furry Faces}

It's furry faces week over at I Heart Faces and I just adore our furry family members! The photo I chose to enter this week is of our divine dog, Finn.

I adore this photo, taken on my iPhone, using the Hipstamatic App. He loves to put his head out of the car window as I drive along. When I looked over and saw this - the Eagles song, Hotel California just entered my brain - you know - sing along with me...

"On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air..."

(Whatever colitas are!)

I love that he has his eyes closed - looks as if he is savouring the moment don't you think? Or my driving has scared him witless!

Before any of you ask what breed he is - well he is a Samoyed/Golden Retriever. Not only is he beautiful to look at, he has such a beautiful personality. We all love him so much.

Head on over to I Heart Faces to see more Furry Faces!

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge {Let them be little}

On my photography journey, I don't really shoot little kids. I mean I would love to but I prefer bigger ones, ones that I can talk to and gee, they might even listen to me once in a while. When I saw this weeks theme, I just thought that I would sit it out. However, in a fit of nostalgia, I did a reminiscing 'sweep' of my hard drives. What a time consumer that was - it was a lovely trip to tell you the truth.

I found this image. She was born on the cusp of the digital age and this is probably one of the oldest digital images I have of her! It was taken on Father's Day 2002 - 9 years ago now.

The little girl in this image is my daughter, Bronte. She is now 13 years old and just started Secondary school this year. In this image, she was still in preschool. It has bought back so many sweet thoughts. Of times flown by. Thoughts filled with joy and also tinged with sadness.

I do hope she has had a nice life so far.
