The end result was I had no sleep last night. Felt worse today, and called in. Then slept and did paperwork at home all day. A crummy way to spend the day. John was up, and Steve was keeping an eye on him. His mom is sick and she had gone to see the doctor today. (Not sure if this whole originated with me or John, who had a runny nose last weekend and had been dispensing fish kisses to everyone.)
John came up and beat on the door. He'd been outside helping his Gramps fix the lawnmower, and was covered in dust. I looked out the door and saw butterflies all over my flowers. John saw them too, with a two year old's amazement. Sick or not sick, I saw a photo op, and grabbed Big Girl and started shooting.
This is what I got, almost unretouched. Just some minor light changes, a vignette edge added, and some extraneous details cropped out of some of the photos. I think these are the best raw photos I have probably ever taken.
Maybe I ought to only take photos when I am sick.

I hope you get over the crud, and soon. No fun! Those pics are absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFeeling much better, thanks Shelly. And even sick, I manage to drag around and capture a moment here and there...it takes my mind off of my own misery. :D
DeleteLoved the pictures. Hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jessica, I am glad you enjoyed them. And I am feeling much better too. :D
DeleteJohn is getting so big and I love the way he wears his hat! Adorable. Wonderful pictures!
ReplyDeleteHe is 2 going on 5 according to his Gramps, who worships him. Don't ask me what that means...only Gramps knows. And he put the hat on by himself, so I didn't dare adjust it. :D
