Memo to self... kill low_fat_muffin for #8...

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

you are so cute,(pinches your cheek), when you are being pissy!

[bukephalus.livejournal.com]

You're beautiful. It's wonderful to see all these since I didn't catch them all the first time around!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

Miss Kate is the true star of the year I think :)

[joebehrsandiego.livejournal.com]

Robert - thank you for all of these; as Bukephalus mentioned I didn't catch all of these the first time around.

Of course, that *does not* apply to DaddyWaltDenver. Gawd ... made me laugh once again!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

It was a bit much to post this many - but most of them are pretty great photos. That pic of Kate and Waffle - is just FAB!

[starzinked.livejournal.com]

where can i get a tutu and tiara like that?

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

LOL - they were like $4 each at the performance - I actually had a BALL at that show - dancing around as the "big" fairy with all the kids and their parents. LOL!

1) Should be in a coffee table book. AMAZING
3) I just love this. What a moment caught in amber
4) Don't MAKE me fall in love with you! LOL!
9) I love that saying. And the humor in it (with your change) is WRONG! LOL!
11) Not my favorite shot from that day, but amazing. I love love that picture!
12) Makes my heart beat a little faster. I can only imagine what you felt like on that day...
16) Please don't hate me, but I hated your facial hair here...

[squalidbear.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, the evil, mad magician look. A hard look to pull off...

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

1) as I said earlier to Rob, it really is a one of a kind photograph
3) Yeah - Satine as a puppy was something else.
4) what makes the whole ballerina thing work for me - is that I wore my "eyes of the buddha" tshirt. the stupa is a representation of the "feminine" buddha - with the "all seeing" third eye. LOL!

and as john was so kind to point out - it was a stretch for me - but I think I made up for it in picture #17. :);)

[squalidbear.livejournal.com]

#13. Chiaroscuro. Apparently Art History majors are told never to use the term 'chiaroscuro'...

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

actually - I LOVE that term. :) it why I often shoot in black and white - I'm sorta obsessive about shadows and light and their playtime together. Picture #1 in this set - is my favorite for that reason. it honestly was a quick "godpleasestandstillforasecond" shot - that turned out to be a highlight.

[ruralrob.livejournal.com]

A very nice collection, with 1, 2 and 17 the best . .

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

yeah - that day at Fort Funston with Miss Kate was devine. and the shadows and such cooperated very nicely. I particularly like #1 for it's varied shades. #2 is a classic Miss Kate shot - and will probably end up printed large and up in the house one day.

Such nice compliments from the photographer's photographer. Thank you Rob!

[musicbearmn.livejournal.com]

Delightful!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

Thanks Mr. D - :)

It was fun to click through - and keep some stuff - and remember other things. LIke for instance. remembering the love and care that went into that art piece - and the poem.

When the sun dives into the night
breaking purples strangle
it has but one purpose
to shine on you
and make your dark black hair shine
and coax the tiger-like sparkles
from your eyes



it's a snapshot no amount of time will make any less important to me.

[musicbearmn.livejournal.com]

I agree, and the energy still abounds....

Watch for an email this weekend...

[major7.livejournal.com]

I liked the one of Miss Kate taking a drive the best.
And then I liked the one of you on the Muir beach.

2, 4, 12 and 14 are my absolute favorites! I so enjoy getting to share a part of your life through your journal!
