photo thursday: ... cry baby cry....
Sometimes a girl just has to take a stand. Often, actually. About issues that a parent may not think line-in-sand-drawing-worthy. But L is quick to state an objection. Luckily she is (usually) just as quick to bounce back and move on. Usually.

family: (photo)... smile a little while...
another in the continuing View from 3 Feet series:
One of the things I like best about the photos from K's camera is their lack of focus. It's due largely to the quality of the lens, but it's also a function of the shutter speed. None of that really matters though -- what I like is that this blurry vagueness and the frequently off-kilter orientation of the photos fairly accurately capture our current life.... everything feels like it's blurring along.
My latest theory is that the blur comes with the chaos of kids (including lack of sleep), and then by the time the kids are out of the house the blur has become permanent, due to cataracts, pollution, dirty windows, global warming, failing bodies, 18 years of habit..... Something more to look forward to!

Living Room Ceiling, with Light
(photo by... K? L?)
This makes our house look somewhat gothic. I don't think it's gothic, but maybe our neighbors would disagree.... Can a house look gothic with 2 strollers out front, 2 swings hanging from the porch ceiling, a loud dog in the side yard, myriad boots and shoes piled next to the front door, a horse-on-springs next to a tipped-over plastic slide....

M at Thanksgiving dinner (Christmas dinner?)
by K
The great thing about K's photography to this point is the hit-or-missness of it. She hasn't mastered the point-the-camera-at-the-thing-you're-taking-a-picture-of technique. Which means if she's taking a picture of you, you frequently need to duck into the frame (if you're willing and able). It also means that sometimes we end up with some wonderful, unexpected images. This may or may not be one of those.
