Why I love digital photography

Four words: TODDLER-ON-THE-GO!

I must have thousands upon thousands of pictures of Annabel, from birth to present. How many of those are actually print-worthy? A fraction of them. Thank goodness we are in the digital age, and I can snap away without worrying about my film budget. Still, I gotta say that sometimes the throwaways are fun. Case in point... When we went to the park the other day, here is what most of the pictures that I took look like.

Girl on a mission... headed from the swing to the slide. Never mind that Mommy is trying to get her to at least look in my direction! (And on a side note, yes, I do realize that her hair clip does not match her outfit at all. But it was the only one I had within reach at home as we were leaving, and sometimes, within reach is the best you can do.)

And up the steps we go... camera? What camera?

And then back down again. Nope, still can't look at Mommy! We have to watch the steps of course, to make it down again.

Incoming!! I really need to be faster. I think only a couple of her hairs are in focus here. Perhaps I should get a sports lens.

And I'll end with her cute diapered-butt. I have a lot of these shots. Really. I can't tell you how many. But I love every stinkin' one of them.

Cheers,
