one guess

That's all you should need. What's missing and where did it go?

trying to get serious

The point of this whole 365 project is supposed to be to better your picture taking abilities. I really am trying to remember that. In that vein, I took a few photos while we were waiting for Jason to get his hair cut. (Didn't I tell you? Our life is absolutely fascinating!) There were several of Izzy hamming up for the camera (he's in that "see the camera, adopt cheesy grin" phase) and some of Zander giving me the "mo-om" look. But I liked the pictures of their feet the best.

I am a big fan of taking pictures of kids' feet. I'm sure we will see more than a few as the year rolls out. This is Izzy (obviously). I love his little shoes. I messed with the exposure, contrast, and color (just a little) and then put a little border around it. I usually use a black border when I do that but I thought it might be interesting to try to match the tiles a little. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it but it's different. And that was kind of the point today.

ringing in the new year

There are many reasons we are going to miss living in Germany. Fireworks, while not the top reason, are pretty high up on that list. There are fireworks at pretty much every fest you can imagine, birthdays, holidays (ahem...like New Years!), and did I mention fests? Yeah, Germans seem to feel that fireworks make everything better--and I think Izzy agrees!
