My fav is an EXTREME closeup someone took of my 4 year old's face on he swings at school. The photographer captured her joy + beauty in a very natural way.

My current fav photo is of my daughter. She is bald and beautiful. She celebrated her 29th birthday yesterday and I am so grateful that she made it to that day. She is recovering from a Bone Marrow Transplant. So my favorite picture is of my daughter - smiling - she is alive.

it's hard to choose just one by i took a photo of my daughter blowing bubbles at sunset that perfectly captures her. She is a silhouette and the bubbles are rainbow colored against the sky. She is my rainbow too : )

My current favorite photo is one I took of my son a few years ago. I took it from above and it focuses on his gorgeous eyelashes. He is still baby-looking....and it just tugs at my heart.

My favorite picture right now was actually taken december 2007. It's of my dad with a Santa hat on...looking over his shoulder at me. Two months later he was diagnosed with cancer and died within 9 months. The picture makes me smile and is right on my computer table and on our refridgerator.

My favourite photo at the moment is a headshot I took of my sister in our living room...was completely unaware until that moment that the light was so good in that room! The photo is in black and white and shows off my sister's sparkly eyes...she looks very pretty in it!

My favorite photo as of late is...my six year old son holding the little hand of his new baby cousin. He looking at her little hand like its the most beautiful tiny little thing. It makes me tear up every time.

My favorite photo is one of my boys this summer with the frogs they caught. It reminds me that no matter how long winter seems, and the routineness of school - the lazy, carefree days of summer will come.

My current favorite photo is one taken of my mom on New Year's Eve 2008. She passed away 13 days later (just weeks before her 89th birthday), but she was so tickled that day because we had bought a box of party stuff - hats, crowns beads, etc. The photo is of her and one of her personal care associates, her very favorite lady that mom continually called her "ray of sunshine". It always reminds me that mom was a wonderful lady who was always ready to smile and laugh. It was the ending photo I used for the memorial book I put together for her funeral and always brings a smile to my face, especially when I am missing my mom so badly.
