I Heart Faces, Week 29 - "At The Beach" Photo Challenge

Posted in PhotoBlogging

 

Theme: "At The Beach"

I love this picture of my 3 girlies taken at Lapush (or is it La Push or LaPush) beach in Forks, WA. It was my baby girl's first time @ the Pacific Ocean and she was concentrating on walking in that sand much to my older girls' amusement.

My parents had taken my oldest 5 children overnight for a couple of nights, leaving just hubby & I and our sweet baby girl to ourselves. We enjoyed the time we had together but missed the older children lots! As soon as my parents brought the children home we took off for the beach. That was the longest the girls had been away from their baby sister and they sure missed her (and she them!). They made up for lost time hanging out and playing with her on the beach.

We were a little disappointed that we left a warm, sunny home to end up at a cold, foggy beach, but I sure love the ethereal look it gave the photos. (more below)

I was going to say it didn't really look like good beach weather, but they all look so happy! Beautiful shot.

I absolutely LOVE this! Beautiful contrast with the bright clothes and the muted beach. My daughter would be jealous that you've been to LaPush in Forks! She is a big Twilight fan. :)

The fog is great, the colors are great, the composition is great, and the subjects just couldn't be cuter!!! Amazing. I hope you win!!!

I love the look of that photo and so glad you entered it. My photo doesn't show the beach really but we WERE THERE. Just on the boardwalk. I had trouble picking which one to use but loved the water droplets in this one.
We're going to NC this weekend for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. My brother in law has CS3. Yippee!! I'm so excited. I will email you the minute I have it installed. I've been dying to try actions. And I'm super excited.
Hope you win!!!!!

That is a really great picture...it deserves a big space on some wall in your home!

This photo is one of my favorites for the week. I just love the interaction between the 3. It totally reminds me of how my nieces are when my toddler girl comes around. The composition and soft colors are beautiful!

Ah, so it was cold. The girls do look thrilled to see their baby sister. I think my girls would be the same. They just love their baby sister. There is something so special in the relationship between older girls and little girls that I don't think people get to experience when their children are only close in years together. Beautiful picture. Great job capturing the fog. I'm always frustrated with my camera in shadows, but you have so many great shots of that type.

Aug. 4, 2009 - Beach question

Posted by kristigirl444
Hey Alyssa, we've lived in Yakima for 4 years but we've never been to the coast. We're wanting to go to a beach next weekend and I have no idea where a good place is to go. Do you have any recommendations, or know of good areas that aren't super far north? It takes us about 2.5 hours to get to Seattle, and we don't mind travelling an extra hour or so from there if we need to. If there's any way you could leave me a comment just in case you're able to answer and I forget to check back, thank you so much!!!!
