photo by pati mcdougall (that would be my mom)
This is one of my favorites from a batch of photos my Mom left here recently. Simon and my Dad walking on the beach & clam digging as the fog rolled in. My new banner photo was taken on the same day, as was this one:

I am really enjoying these far away shots - they tell an entirely different story.
Way to go Mom & Dad - thanks for always supplying me with such beautiful photos from today and yesterday.
Edited: Mom & Dad shoot with a Canon Digital Rebel XT (same camera as I am using). I believe that she is shooting on automatic. If she lets me know differently I will pass along the information.

Ali - the last one would make a beautiful canvas print :) Perhaps you could have it printed and stretched and give it to them as a gift. :)

...what awesome photos ...did you become a life artist because your mom showed you the way or did she learn from you?
I have a four year old daughter and I want to get her interested in preserving memories, photography and all that. Just curious if you have any tips.

What beautiful stories! Since you re-did your banner, I always have to stare at it for a bit before moving down and reading the blog posted :)

Your mother takes beautiful photos. It's nice of her to leave photos for you. My mom isn't a great photographer, but I just got her a digital slr so she's excited about learning. Hopefully she will start getting awesome pictures for me too...
