The kids at play

Joey playing with bubbles poolside

I used the two side rails and the underside of the white handrail to create a vignette around Jocie as she kissed a little yellow rubber duck.


Jess laughing with Mimi as she learns about how an acorn turned into a small plant in her backyard


Jocie laughing... such a beautiful image...

White vignette around Jocie...seeing it on my computer screen, at last I get it!

I assume you used a hand-held flash to achieve the fog-like vignette?

The acorn/oak tree photo is now my computer wallpaper!!! Thanks for being so thoughtful as to listen to my acorn story for Jess. She loved the story, and was truly amazed as she disected the acorn. I bet she will remember the story of the acorn.

One last comment to add....what a wonderful family you all are!!!

I am honored and proud to be part of your family.

Thanks for including me.

Love,
Mum

The white vinette around Jocie was done with no flash, just some slight manipulation of my specific position in relation to framing her through both the camera viewfinder and the three sided frame created from the railing.
