Mine on Monday [Canberra Children's Photographer]
February 14, 2010Sometimes life gets way to busy, you know what I mean. It’s like the plumber having leaky pipes scenario. Well this is my challenge to myself and I am calling it “Mine on Monday”. The plan is to document the lives of my children one by one, two by two and three by three if I possibly can. I want to document their lives and our lives on a weekly basis. So this is where I start - on one very wet weekend. I just cannot remember a weekend with weather quite like the one we have just had. Sometimes we seem to go months without a spot of rain, and now as I type, the thunder clouds have just tumbled back in.
So these images are all very wet. I love this first image, but for the life of me, I don’t think I could re-create it. Do not try this at home, unless you completely want to destroy your gear. The effect is caused by my lens getting very wet and fogging up (thank heavens for Canon’s L-series lens).
Harriet didn’t bother with an umbrella, she just headed on out there. These image involve me saying “Smile Harriet, I want to see where your tooth has come out” It’s her first tooth.
Time to dry off.
OK enough rain - day number 2 of rain is not quite so much fun
