I Heart Faces-People's Choice

This week's photo theme from I Heart Faces is "Best Face Photo from Summer 2011" I can't wait to see the entries! I know they will be amazing; as always. 


My pick for the challenge is my all time favorite photo of Alyssa from her birthday party last month. 

Good luck to everyone that enters!

Coincidence or Ghosts?

I spent a lovely overcast Sunday out of town. I had hoped for sunny skies (and had them all morning) but once I drove to Tazewell, TN it was a very grey day. I walked the streets alone. Being Sunday (in a small town) I had the place to myself. I then found myself in the "Tazewell Irish Cemetery"-which I had no clue existed. I wondered aimlessly through the 200 year old graveyard...it was magnificent.

The strangest thing happened once I was home. I transferred the photos from my camera and viewed them using Windows Photo Viewer. Once I flipped through the day's adventure and went to open one (to change to b/w) I realized I was missing around 30 pictures. Here is the freaky part...I lost almost every photo from the cemetery. I have the first 3 and the last 6...all of the grave stones in between are gone. Memorials, gone. And of course like a idiot I had already deleted them off of my memory card...the photos are gone! I know you all are thinking it's a coincidence and it probably is...but I was freaked out nonetheless.

Now I'll have to aimlessly walk around the cemetery again to retake the photos I lost. Of course it's not a bad thing. :)

Wilderness Road

This is last Sunday's blog post. There are over 20 photos to share, thus I will (try to) keep my words short. Thomas and I spent a good chunk of the day at the Wilderness Road State Park in Virginia. You can check out the official site here. We visited the park many times while we were dating (years and years ago) and I was in awe of how much they had progressed with the park since. It really sheds light on the history of our area. If you live close, check it out...well worth the $3 for parking.

Without further adieu, enjoy the photos!

 

Step On It

Wednesday April 6th, 2011 I want to use the daisies in photographs as much as possible, since they will eventually die. Of course dead daisies make good props too. :)

I was in a "step on it" mood this night, but please know that only one stem of daisies were harmed in the making of these photos. How crafty was it of me to use my wedding shoes? They came in handy 7 years later. lol

Enjoy!!!

Mika.
