You have such talent honey. They are wonderful!
I love the one of the 3 of them ‘walking’!!
You’re so creative.
I’ll have mine up tomorrow!

Thank you for your kind remarks, Rachel! :) I can’t wait to see everyone’s. This is my favorite meme!

All your pictures are great. You make an eaten banana look beautiful. The sleeping dogs are cute. And of course the kids are precious.
January 19th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
Of course your photos are always great (note that I did vote! yay me!), but the salad tongs? SWEET. Now I’m jealous of your camera AND your elephant salad tongs (or spoons or whatever the heck they are called–regardless, they would make salad more interesting!).
January 19th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
those are awesome!! The bean one reminded me of that picture that has a bald guy’s head in it! You are supposed to find the bald guy amidst all the beans.
I think the last one if my favorite.
January 19th, 2008 at 9:30 pm
I love the beans picture! And that snow man is so well shaped. haha.
January 19th, 2008 at 9:42 pm
I love all the pictures Mishelle. You have such a knack for it!
January 19th, 2008 at 9:45 pm
jennifer: I must’ve taken 50 pics of the banana, just playing around. I saved that shot, though!
Burgh: Those are FROM Africa. An old friend got them from one of her friends, and passed them on to me.
Tommie: The last is my fave, too. I’m having a ball playing with maual focus.
Heather: Thanks, doll! You do, too.. get in on this one when you can. :D
Manda: The beans were shot using the macro feature, which I love.

Alex: That’s rad, in-and-of-itself but I can’t possibly do this yet. I have no one for childcare. But, wow! How cool! That’s the kind of stuff that I’d love to do someday!~

I am impressed. My first week with the new camera was, well, a disaster. Are you good at everything you do? ;)
from the queen of my life has too much drama for my sanity………..

Janice: It sucks sometimes when you are perfectionist. LOL
January 20th, 2008 at 12:09 am

Great shots as always!

They are great! I love the outdoor photos! I forgot - what camera did you get? I’m ready for some new lenses, filters, strobe lights and… the list could go on! :)
January 20th, 2008 at 10:59 am
I love the fence shot. Really interesting with the grains of the wood greatly captured.
January 20th, 2008 at 11:01 am
AndreAnna: I had a small bowl with milk (as opposed to a small bowl without milk) and it was pure divinity!

Wow! Great pictures! I need to work on my photography skills….ok, I just need to get some photography skills!
January 20th, 2008 at 11:38 am
Those are all so great - I especially love the banana one. Who knew half eaten bananas could look so good???
January 20th, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Love the Winter Remains. Sure looks like you are enjoying your new camera.
January 20th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Adrienne: Thanks! Practice makes perfect. I’m always in practice mode. :D
Annie: I know, makes me want to eat, like, five of them!
MarysMom: I’m considering putting it on a tourist strap, so that it’s always with me! ;)
January 20th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Oh wow!! What stunning photos! I love the last one, and the one of the 3 of them walking.
January 20th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
AMAZING photos…..I love the 3 of them walking, and all of them are captioned so well :) hubby and I are the same way with our laptops, lol!
January 20th, 2008 at 2:01 pm
Your photos are absolutely amazing! Just playing around with that new camera, huh? I can only imagine the eye candy that will befall me when you’ve mastered the new camera.
I learn something new from your photos every week.
I think that the night snow and the fence and the banana are my faves.
January 20th, 2008 at 2:43 pm
I cannot pick a favorite. They are all wonderful! Your snow reminds me of my snow. I am so ready for snow-begone!
Thanks for stopping by and saying nice things to me.
January 20th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
The banana picture is my favorite! You have a great eye. Your pictures are beautiful :)
January 20th, 2008 at 3:26 pm
I love your banana shot Mishi. And, Liv made a fab snowman.
January 20th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
loved the lonesome snowman…
all the pictures are beautiful.
January 20th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
I think you used ALL the snow to make the snowman LOL..
Beautiful photos as always..
Those elephants are really cool!!
I think I have to go have a bowel of cereal now..that looks so yummy!!
January 20th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
These are great! Making salad more interesting stood out for me, as did cold division/warm neighbors, night time snow and he banana - the color treatment is really interesting. Good stuff!
January 20th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
Jenty: I love that one, too! It was really sweet to see them want to teach their baby brother how to walk.
Sandy: Good to hear that there are more geeks out in the world. Good looking geeks, at that!
tiff: Your compliments resound within me! I thank you!
Eve: It’ll probably be warm enough to go to the park next week. One can only hope.
Happy Campers: Yes, I love that shot, too.
AFF: When are you joining WW? Huh. Huh. ??
HRH: I have to take some shots of the snowmen around our ‘hood, too. My neighbor (from the fence shot) made a remarkable one!
mp: That cereal kicks it!
Smiler: You rock! Thanks for the compliments.
(I sure hope I haven’t missed anyone in my replies to all the comments. Apologies if I did; it was unintentional, if so.)
January 20th, 2008 at 5:08 pm
VERY cool pictures. I love the one of the fence in the snow. Neat!
January 20th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
Braden has those same jammies. :-)
My favs: the beans of love (lol), the banana, the fence, and the winter remains.
So many good ones! I know you’re having fun with your new baby (camera). :-D
January 20th, 2008 at 9:52 pm
These are all terrific photos! New cameras are so awesome, aren’t they?
I love the macro shot of the coffee beans — I took a dozen or more photos of the Christmas spice drops playing with the macro setting. I am once again looking at the world always thinking about how I could photograph it…
Wonderful photos!
January 20th, 2008 at 11:10 pm
This looks like comment city! I like the coffee beans. Who would have thought that toddler would have to teach those kids to walk? :D
January 21st, 2008 at 12:06 am
Great shots for somebody who’s just messing around! I started to memorize which ones were my favorite then realized I liked every one of them :) Come see mine when you have a chance. :)
