Fish in My Hair

I don't make this stuff up.

Alright, this is for all you cynics who think the photos of Sasquatch drinking lime juice were staged.

1. I have no need to set up photo ops. If you've been reading this blog for very long at all, you know that there seems to be an abundance of unusual events in my house, which is why....

2. ...I own three cameras and always have at least one nearby. As the frequent subjects of my many photographs, my family's reaction to the constant presence of a camera ranges from mild surprise

to dramatic over-reacting

to downright horror. But more than that...

3. ...I agree with the wise person who said, "Life is what happens when you're making other plans." My goal is to capture, either in words or in pictures, not the planning part, but the actual LIFE part. Every day, every minute, every second, every loved one, every friend is a gift. Photographs make it possible for me to open those gifts over and over again.

"God makes my feet like hinds' feet, and sets me upon my high places. He trains my hands for battle, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation, and Your right hand upholds me; and Your gentleness makes me great. You enlarge my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped." (Ps. 18:33-36)

Great post TC. I've never doubted the stuff that goes on at your house, b/c we have typically the same unusuals going on at ours. I love the book "Hinds Feet On High Places". Have you read it? Have a great weekend and keep that camera handy. Great pics.

Blessings,
Lori

Okay, the expression of downright horror says it all! There is NO way, you can have an expression like that living in your house and have things actually be sane, normal or even semi- of either! hehehee...

Beautiful sunset, by the way.

I've never thought they were staged. You seem like a "photography" kind of person. I love them all. :)

Those pictures are great!! I would like to take more pictures myself, but I'm afraid I have a memory-loss problem when it comes to remembering my camera. =)
