Welcome

My name is Lori. This is my photography blog. I still have a day job while I pursue my photography business. I am flexing my creative muscles by pursuing a Project 52. I will post something that tickles my fancy each and every week of 2012. I hope you follow along and enjoy viewing my perspective, as seen through my camera lense. Happy 2012!

138/365 ~ Plain ol' Silly!

Caught this picture of Chelsie and Katie pretending that Ethan's feet were telephones.

"Hello, anyone there on the left foot?"  It all got so silly that just after I snapped my photo of the day, Marc and I picked up our "handsets" too (Ethan's hands) and we were all talking into his feet, hands...and then collapsed into a pile of laughter......good times!

Ethan enjoying trolling for bugs armed with his "Bug Keeper" so he can view them through the magnifier!

Please note:  There were no bugs harmed during the making of this photo or at any other time.  
All bugs are set free after being viewed and the ooohs and aaaahs are over!

133/365 ~ Pretend Sleepover

It was a great night for a 5 year old.  
Hanging with your kindergarten friends from 7 to 10 pm!
Dressing in your PJ's, playing games, eating and even their own Planetarium!
The only thing missing.....his sister who was too sick to attend.
He walked into the house and wanted to tell her everything....
but she was sleeping, so the stories will be shared tomorrow......

130/365 ~ Smoke Gets in your Eyes (and your lungs)


The smoke just about obscured the sun early this morning due to large brush fire in the Everglades.  

If this picture had been taken 15 minutes earlier, when I was further west, you would not even have been able to see the cars.  

It was treacherous!

129/365 ~ Whoooohooooo....We're home!


As soon as our car pulled into the driveway and stopped, they ran to the backyard, took off their clothing and jumped into the pool.

Perfect way to lose the Princess Glitter before entering the house!
