Went home to IL to see the family. Didn't take near the amount of photos I thought I would. Here are just a few of my favorites. Was able to meet my Nephew for the first time.

I like the close up portrait Carl. Your choice of B & W is very effective.

It's almost like the one standing is holding a light that has lit the background up. Really interesting poses for silhouette. Great shot!

Very nice Lena, besides the softness of the water the play between light and dark adds to the images.

Nicely done Lena, the mountain range in the back provides great framing element.

Great shot Dolph! This photo to me really shows the parallels between today and our reliance on electronics at all times.

I wonder how many people had stupid things happen to them because of texting (while riding) =)

Trees All Dressed Up and Can't Go Out

Panasonic GX  50mm

We had gone out to a private planned community and I found these trees that had been dressed up by some of the local kids. I've been shooting, but my connection to the site seems to be blocked by my computer, can't even post comments.
