My heart is in San Diego

[Judy Hamilton]

Spent the morning at the park with Shannon, Tom and Hannah and Hayley This family is a blessing to my life.
I took the girls yesterday on an "Adventure Walk" we took the trolley to the hospital, ate a couple of cookies and met some smiling nurses. Hannah and Hayley thought we were on a train. They did not seem to miss the "Caboose" on this train.

This is a big "Daddy hug" for Hannah

Judy, I apologize for repeating myself, but your pictures still keep getting better and better. People are a whole different subject than landscapes, but these are just as good if not better. It is great so see the world through your lens!

A good photographer is like a painter. A painter is not merely copying reality to the canvas, (s)he's pointing towards things and says: "Hey, look, did you see this?" You're becoming a better painter.

Hans,
A sincere thank you. As a photographer you know the difficulty of capturing the moment when photographing people. Children are a challenge, and when I am with them my attention needs to be enjoying the moment and playing with them. Their play time in the park is always around 10 am..in an unforgiving bright sunlight. Not my favorite time of day for a photo op, however this is the best time for "Adventure Time" for Hannah and Hayley.
