Your photos are beautiful... i had fun checking them out, even the photos of the cameras are intriguing. Now the Monster Self portrait is very scarey, looks slimy and gooey.. uck

Looks to me like someone has what I had in Hawaii...and they sneezed on you.

Thanks Principessa for the nice words about my photography. The cameras posts are a whimsical look at (almost) all the cameras I have owned since 1979.

Us men like our "toys", so much so that we can almost develop a relationship of sorts with them. That's kind of too bad, because our wives and children deserve the attention more than our toys.

But, better to laugh at ourselves, than cry about it.

Erin,

I heard you got sick in Hawaii. I sincerely hope you didn't feel as bad as I look in this heavily Photoshopped portrait!

I also hope you are not allergic to David. He seems to be not allergic to you. And that, Erin, must be a good thing.

Ciao,
Roberto

I think you need some serious help. But in the case that you can't get it, I'm glad that you have this outlet.

I never claimed to not need serious help. However, I can't afford a therapist, and your husband won't do it--he just says he'd have to refer me to someone else. What? Is he scared of me or something?

So, yes, I'm happy for this blog, and my ever-growing fan base.

Ciao,
Dad

Great photographs and photo-illustrations! Spent a lot of time scrolling up and down the site. I hadn't heard of OPR before today. Sounds like a worthy organization. I'm gonna check to see if they're still needing volunteers. Hope your trip to the Gulf Coast is rewarding, to victims and to you. Peace to you.

My daughter's opinions are almost infallible.

Honestly...it looks like Mrs. McLaughlin got a bad case of the flu. Mr. Mc wouldn't bring her her chicken noodle soup and she told him what-for with one NASTY, snotty, sneeze.

As for Lorene's comment, I agree; however, I get to reap the benefits of your blogging so YAY!

Erin,

You have officially out-grossed me! :>)

Love,
Dad (of David, for now)
