I hadn't shot with the 50mm for a while so I busted it out today at the...

Target parking lot! Very creative, huh?

I thought the lines of the lot and the shadow looked cool.

I forgot how clear the 50 shoots. Love it.

Did yard work this morning/early afternoon. Another work shot. Enjoy.

Ran out of time today to shoot pix so you get a shot of my place of work. This is a different shot than before, so I'm cheating, but too bad.

Haley got some yesterday and I had to give it to Rye today. This time, he was able to do it himself and make it to the bottom for the most part. I just loved the expression on his face for this shot.

Today was the first day I've spent at home with the kids in about two weeks. We went to lunch and ran some errands and did some summer fun shopping.

Cue the Slip 'n' slide!

Brought it home and set it up. Haley, like she does with most things active, took to it immediately. Riley struggled a bit with the diving on the ground aspect. I think because it went against everything we've been teaching him the past few years to protect his neck, it was hard for him to do.

As it was, he kept trying and towards the end (before he nearly froze), he was able to make it most of the way down the slide.

I had some other shots of Hay splashing down in the water trough at the end, but I liked this shot of her airborn.

She's a stud.

I went to my brother's house today. He had a little health issue over the weekend and he's at home recovering nicely. As the kids played with his dogs and my mom and him talked computers, I shot a picture of their wine glasses. I held the camera up and clicked blindly once again. The natural frame in the background was a very lucky and happy catch.

OK. Computer is pretty much back to normal. If I were more ambitious, I'd rearrange my hard drives. With all the photos I've been taking, my good ol' 120gb drive is getting full. My secondary drive is getting tight as well.

The plan is to take some real pictures tomorrow and upload them after some post. I have a bunch of California pix to catch up on as well.

In the meantime, I changed my desktops to some of my recent favorite shots.
