I love taking photographs and own probably the original amateur digital SLR; a Canon EOS 300D. It’s an amazing camera and has captured some truly magic moments over the years, I’m not in the slightest bit tempted to upgrade it as it still works brilliantly.
Twitter introduced me to the world of blogging and the concept of The Gallery. So this page will be used as a record of my favourite photos of The Boy, but also I will enter some of these photos into Stickyfingers Gallery depending upon the relevance of the theme.
Mother Nature – 19th January 2011
This picture is taken from the aeroplane as we flew over San Francisco Bay, and the coloured areas that you can see are salt ponds. The different colours represent different stages of the desalination process. An awe-inspring sight.
This was put together for this week’s gallery over at Sticky Fingers where the subject is “Mother Nature”.
Body Parts – 12th January 2011
The Boy has beautiful hair, I love tousling it with my fingers. If the old wives’ tale is anything to go by, his hair is why I had such horrendous heartburn through my pregnancy. At 19 months old on the day of this Gallery post, he has had his hair cut seven times; it is thick, strong and gloriously golden-tinted.
This was put together for this week’s gallery over at Sticky Fingers where the subject is “Body Parts”
Love – 22nd December 2010
My husband took this of The Boy grasping my hand when he was five days old. It is one of my favourite photos ever. End of!
This was put together for this week’s gallery over at Sticky Fingers where the subject is “Love”

Love the golden hair. My two are blondies, much to my surprise. Mind you, I was blonde until about 7 and apparently OH was too, even tho he is much darker.

I love the photos and the one with the hair flicked over is fab. My boys all have hair like that but sadly getting darker as they get older. They are great pictures. xx

So cute. Both my two have thick hair even when born but no heartburn funny that. Your little one is adorable x

The photo of the bay is wonderful, almost like abstract art. I have never managed to take a decent photo from a plane window- not for the want of trying!

The salt ponds are so interesting! I never knew they were different colours according to the stage in the process. And I can imagine that must have been quite a sight to fly over. Good representation of mother nature mixed with human intervention!

This may sound ridiculous but I took that photo back in 2005 and it wasn’t until last night that I knew what the different colours were! I always meant to find out but I kept forgetting. It is fascinating the different stages.

Wow that’s cool. My OH goes to San Fran every year with work, I am desperate to go too, you’ve given me one more reason!

Great picture for mother nature. Also just read that you use the Canon 300D – me too! It is a great camera considering its age.

It’s fab, takes some brilliant pictures still and I wouldn’t even consider upgrading it at the moment simply for the sake of it!

WOW! You learn something every day. I’ve been to San Fran twice and I never saw/heard of these salt ponds. Amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Had I not been peering out the window at that moment, I would have missed it. Amazing the sights that are out there but that we miss with the blink of an eye!

Gorgeous pics! I wish I had a really good camera! Maybe if I’m extra good this year Santa will bring me one? ;0)
