Picture 27 - Waiting to Bloom


Waiting to bloom... at the Longwood Gardens Conservatory.

Picture 26 - Tiny Little Visitor


I love the combination of flowers and insects -- at the Longwood Gardens Conservatory.

Picture 25 - The Reflection in Her Eye


In this picture I tried to get my reflection in Leila's eye. That was my new "assignment", given by my friend David Byron. He's an amazing photographer. This is not even close to what he would be able to do with his camera, but I tried... and I know that practice makes perfect -- someday I hope :)

Picture 22 - Windmill


At Halo Farm this afternoon - a nice combination of sunset and a very old windmill. I love windmills.

Picture 21 - Jellyfish


In my opinion, one of the most fascinating ocean creatures imaginable.

Picture 19 - Petals


Learning manual focus. And loving it.





Picture 18 - The Moon


A few nights ago...

Picture 17 - Under Water


Trip to the Adventure Aquarium today, in Camden NJ. A beautiful place with amazing under water creatures, but extremely hard to photograph since the lighting is so low. This was one of my very few captures. I could have watched this little guy for a lot longer!

Picture 16 - Things to Remember


The ring was a Mother's Day gift before Leila was born. The rose was from my friend Melissa, at Leila's birth.

Picture 15 - Icicles


I'm not a big fan of cold weather... but icicles, in my opinion, are one of the most beautiful things in the Winter.

Picture 8 - Loving the Snow


One year ago this was so overwhelming for you. I'm so glad you can have fun in the snow now, Lukie. I'm happy when you're happy.

Picture 7 - Rose


My neighbor's backyard. I know, it looks sad. But still pretty.

Picture 6 - I Love Sunsets


A brand new sunset everyday. Thank you, Jesus.

Picture 5 - My favorite subject


I love flowers. I love photographing them. My favorite subject for sure. Can't wait until the Spring when you can find so many of them, everywhere. For now I keep bringing my camera to the local Grocery Store Garden Center :)

Picture 4 - Little Me


Leila pretending to be mommy with her playing make-up. "I look pretty!" was what she said.

Picture 3 - Winter Treat


Gabriel enjoying his hot cocoa with marshmallows after 5 pages of homework. He deserved it!

Picture 2 - Fire


We watch the fire every night. We love its beautiful colors, sounds, smell. I don't think I could survive the winter without it.

Picture 1 - A New Life


A new life starts. Happy New Year!
