Cooper loves the Parker Women!

I haven't blogged in over a month! Yikes!! I have so much catching up to do...not sure if I'll be able to, but I'll try.

OK, so tonight I just have to say that I love my little pup, he is such a NUT! Lately it's been a challenge to get him back in the studio after the "Duck Hunting" shoot. But NO PROBLEM apparently on this day...we had the shot set up, ready to click, and who runs in and plops right down, front and center!! You think maybe it's because it's all women?? He's no dummy... Oh well, at least he got the baby smiling! These are the Parkers, minus dad! I'll post more from this shoot later, with dad once he got there. It was so much fun. :)

Duck Hunting gets a blue ribbon!

Woohoo...! Tonight at the DPPA meeting, "Duck Hunting" took first place in the portrait category!! That's a first for me, and it was pretty exciting. :)

"Duck Hunting"

It's PPA competition time, so it's time to bring out the 4 images from the year that might have the best chance of gaining merits. (The merits go towards a Masters of Photography.) So far I've selected this one, my baby Cooper - I've titled it "Duck Hunting" :)

Red light blogging

Just for you Steph! Yes...I'm at a red light... :) Just coming back from a HS swim meet. My friend Heidi's son was racing in the championship for Richardson HS, and asked me to come shoot him. I've actually never been to a swim meet before! If I was, I was too young to remember...I seem to recall my bro was on the swim team, but I have no memory of watching him compete.

It was pretty cool...those kids are some hard workers! I hadn't thought about those HS team days in a while...getting out of school early for away games, getting the "right" seat on the bus, homework and munchies on the way there, then loud music & craziness on the way home. The competitions were mostly spent waiting around...which I saw a lot of today. Brought back some neat memories! I'll post a few photos later. :)

Test post from my email.

Well, that's just stinking cool! I can post a blog entry from my phone?? Wow, if you though I was A.D.D. before...just wait until my next long traffic light... ;)

2007 blog image recap

These are some of the photos from my old blog, from 2007

My move to blogger!

Well, here we are at a new home! I tried to see if I could import the old posts from my xanga blog, but no luck so far. So it's ok, it's a new year, guess it's time to start fresh! Just a quick little recap of some of last year's photos, so I can test the new blog's posting capabilities:
