Something That Makes Me Smile

Going on a photo walk with my favorite little girl makes me smile! She loves using my old point and shoot camera. And I love that she enjoys taking photos and finding beauty in nature, just like her momma!

Antique

My daughter loves these Holly Hobby dolls. My sister and I had these very same dolls when we were growing up. I was ecstatic when my M-I-L found these dolls to give to my daughter.

Splash

My faucet set to dripping and a blue plate placed in the bottom of my kitchen sink created this splash shot.

In the Sun

I took a bit of time one afternoon this week to take some photos of the flowers in my garden. These Forget-Me-Nots had there pretty little faces turned up towards the sun. I love these little plants! The flowers are small and dainty, just a bit more than 1/8th of an inch, but they pack a punch in the color department.

  2. That is the most intense macro of a dandelion I've ever seen - excellent job. My son (16) is a budding photographer and it makes me happy that we share this interest. Great group of photos for this week's hunt.

  10. I love all of these photos... Splash - the most creative. I too love the holly hobby dolls. I think we had the one with the blue bonnet, growing up. And who knew about those curly cues in the center of the dandelion. Pretty cool.

  13. Wonderful set.
    I almost used a Dandelion Shot for the yellow prompt. I love the little curled tendrils on yours.
    Something that Makes you Smile, How sweet that she loves to take pictures like her mom.
    Splash - That was clever and creative.
    Antique - Goodness it doesn't seem like Holly Hobbie dolls should be that old already!
    Loved your In The Sun, It's my favorite of your set.
