peeking over the fence...

Doesn't get any cuter than this? Don't know what she was looking at or if she could really see over but she kept trying...

a rare occurrence...

I hardly ever get the chance to take pictures of Sherri and Terri together. Neither of them like their picture being taken and they always seem to have an excuse why I shouldn't take it right now.  Plus when I do take pictures, Terri has the ability to ALWAYS blink exactly when the shutter is pressed.  So my original intent of taking this photo with my SX-70 on Impossible film was not exactly a good idea.  I now have taken around five instant photos of Terri, including today's photo, and her eyes are closed (or nearly closed) in all of them.  Oh well, this is what digital cameras were made to overcome.  I "settled" with an photo from my Leica...

carnival art...

Took a little time one morning, a few weeks ago, to stop by and get some pictures of the images/murals painted on some of the County Fair carnival props.  The carnival wasn't open at the time so of course one of the workers was bound to stop by and ask me what I was doing there.  Took the opportunity to start up a conversation that ended with "can I get a picture of you?"...  ...he happily obliged.  Afterwards he showed me several pictures/videos that he had taken of various carnival venues.  ...interesting...

All of the images below were taken with my Leica M8 and the 50mm Summicron lens.
