What’s One Of Your Favorite Photos?

My daughter and Me

My daughter and me

Besides, nature my favorite photos are the ones of my daughter and myself.  The picture above is one of my favorite pictures of my daughter and myself.  Yep, even though the squint factor was high I still love this picture. The photos of us together are rare, and I bet I don’t have more than thirty of them. Yes, I know that is bad. Whenever I hand my camera to someone else, I’m never sure what I’ll see when I look at the picture.

The majority of the time the picture really stinks. Our image is blurred. It makes me wonder what the heck were they thinking of when they decided to take the picture. I do have a remote for my Nikon D80 and a tripod. I’ll be pulling that out during this holiday season. I plan to make our greeting cards.

I actually think I posted this photo before. It was taken in 2006. Our hair is a lot longer now and I’m currently wearing my hair in loc’s aka dreadlock’s. This is one of my favorite photos of my daughter and myself besides the fact that I don’t have too many of us together another reason I like it is because it’s actually in focus.

My hair has been growing like crazy and is past my shoulders now. I attribute that to my healthy lifestyle (food, exercise, and fairly stress free.) As you can see in this picture Aiyana likes her hair wild and free. Perhaps she takes after her mommy? She turned four, in May, and became fascinated with braids. Usually I’ll braid her extremely long hair and add pretty barrettes or ribbons to the ends. She loves that immensely.

The necklace, not a good picture, is one that I created. It also happens to be my favorite necklace. I don’t wear too much jewelry.

At times it’s hard to believe that I’ve been on this planet for thirty seven years but it’s true. I’m enjoying life and living life to it’s fullest. Tomorrow is not promised to me so I’m making the most of every single day. I’m teaching my daughter to do the same. The best way I can teach her is to lead by example.

Question: What’s one of your favorite photos. If you have it available post on your blog and let me know.

I’m turning this into a tag…

I tag

  1. Bush Mackel
  2. Pete of my GPS Camera Phone
  3. dara
  4. Chinnee
  5. Sassy

Of course the picture doesn’t have to be of a person. It can be anything that you like

    Great photo. I’ve got a few like that. There’s a few that have horrid photo qualities, but they are among my favorites. The problem though is that I have a couple hundred favorites. My iPhoto folder has about 6,000 pictures in it, so this should be quite a challenge.

    You did post that photo before Opal, it’s lovely even with the bit of blur and squint.

    I like the photo of me and the Mitz, with no makeup on (either of us LOL) :lol: you might remember that one too.

    [...] a total coincidence today’s photo is. I was tagged by Opal to post one of my favorite photos. Instead of digging through the files, all I had to do was shoot [...]

    I had never seen that photo before - it is beautiful. I guess you are going to have to set up your tripod and the timer on your camera so you can capture more photos of you and your daughter without relying on someone else to do it. That way you can get some good quality ones. Well, it’s a thought, anyway. ;)

    You are taking a memory, not a photo.

    My favourite photo is one of Dad and I after coming in fromfishing. Wet, dirty and smelly we look a mess, Photo is way too dary and a bit blurry.

    Photo 1 out of 10. Memory 10 out of 10.

    Cherish the photo,,,,,,,My Dad is no longer with us and this photo is worth the world to me.

    Just what I was going to say: lots of personality and character in this photo, in spite of the glare!

    It’s a precious shot!
