I stole my hubby’s SD card out of his phone so that I could goof off w/ my Droid’s camera apps (which I sort of had been dying to do). So I took a few goofy shots while playing with the retro cam…
Totally Goofy
*I look as sick as I felt at the time I took this photo (say hello to strep), but I still really like it for some strange reason.
It’s in the eyes
*I love that in this pic my eyes look almost as big as Angel’s (they aren’t, but they look it :D).
Silly ME
*I loved this one enough to make it my new site photo & twitter avatar.

The first fall of snow is not only an event, it’s a magical event. ~Anonymous

For week 11/28-12/04/10
The first real snowfall found me out on a lovely peaceful photo walk. I had so many great pics I had a hard time narrowing them down!
Abandonment Revisited
*I took a pic of this silo back in the fall. Got another shot today!
Kindness is like snow, it beautifies everything it covers. ~Anonymous
Beginning to look a lot like Christmas
“There is nothing in the world more beautiful than the forest clothed to its very hollows in snow. It is the still ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray, every blade of grass, every spire of reed, every intricacy of twig, is clad with radiance.” ~William Sharp
True Love Heart
Seek Love in the pity of others’ woe,
In the gentle relief of another’s care,
In the darkness of night and winter’s snow,
In the naked and outcast, seek Love there!
~William Blake
Snow Hammock
So comes snow after fire, even dragons have their ending. ~J.R.R. Tolkien
Fences will not bind me
Nature chose for a tool, not the earthquake or lightning to rend and split asunder, not the stormy torrent or eroding rain, but the tender snow-flowers noiselessly falling through unnumbered centuries. ~John Muir
Shrouded Beauty
Courage is not the towering oak that sees storms come and go; it is the fragile blossom that opens in the snow. ~Alice M. Swaim
Contrast
The snow itself is lonely or, if you prefer, self-sufficient. There is no other time when the whole world seems composed of one thing and one thing only. ~Joseph Wood Krutch
Buried Playtime
Nature has no mercy at all. Nature says “I’m going to snow. If you have on a bikini and no snow shoes, that’s tough. I am going to snow anyway.” ~Maya Angelou
Lines
There is still vitality under the winter snow, even though to the casual eye it seems to be dead. ~Agnes Sligh Turnbull
When it snows, you have two choices: shovel or make snow angels. ~Unknown

For week 11/14-11/20/10
Due to illness and stress my camera barely saw the light of day this week. To the point that I only have a few pictures and one of them was technically taken BEFORE this week, but I missed it on last weeks WW’s.
Beauties
*These were HER gloves. I just love them still.
More beauties
Handsome
*When he’s not hiding from the camera (& even though he needs a haircut)
Holding Hands
*Shot ‘from the hip’ as Angel was talking sweet to the dog. They were so cute I had to snap w/o disturbing them.

Two pictures from the Indian Summer walk we enjoyed. First is a little shadow play, and then one of my favorite pictures ever…
Shadow Play
In Your Eyes
* Just makes me think of the Peter Gabriel song “In your eyes, I am complete”.

We had a few gorgeous days this week. My parents dog arrived on Thursday (we’re dogsitting while they are on a cruise)…and Angel needs to get as much exercise as possible to try to build up her lung stamina o we went for a lovely walk and I was smart enough to take my camera. These are all of my absolute favorites except 1. That one will appear on Tuesday for my Flip Side pictures :D.
