A cute picture I took yesterday...

[LynzM]

And my little edit of it...




Taking little kids to the beach is so much fun :bounce:

[JohnKleeb]

1. aww is that your kid? shes really cute and great photo

Is that the ocean, a bay, or something else behind him btw?

[LynzM]

2. Yup, that's our kiddo!

She loves the beach, exploring and playing with stuff! We were down on the coast in West Haven last night, it was nice (albeit windy)...

[JohnKleeb]

5. oh crap lol, I am sorry, I thought it was a boy

I love the beach as well, gotta head up at least once this coming summer.

[LynzM]

6. LOL

No worries, dude. The beach rocks, I am so excited to be back nearby it for this summer!! :bounce:

[JohnKleeb]

9. I dont usually go to the beach in Virginia since Va Beach sucks

so I go up to Delaware and Maryland which are great beach places. Found out recently too that my cousin who lives in Ocean City is having
another kid, her other kid is my youngest brother's age and I envy the kid in a lot of ways since he lives near the beach.

[LynzM]

13. Sounds nice!

Most of the beaches I've been to are Connecticut or Rhode Island beaches, some are nice, some are too crowded in the summer... you just have to pick and choose....

[JohnKleeb]

18. How is Connecitcut and Rhode Island itself?

I passed by them in the train and they were really beautiful states and all the entertainers I know to be from Rhode Island are cool like the Farelly Brothers and Seth McFarlane, creator of family guy and american dad.

[LynzM]

23. Pretty nice

Kinda expensive, fairly blue/liberal, but our own share of *-bots. All in all, not a bad place. Most of my family and friends are here :)

3. Very nice picture

Wouldn't it be nice to go back in time when the world was new to us. "sigh"

[LynzM]

7. Wouldn't it?

It's amazing to watch her explore the world, and her excitement at all kinds of things! She got to walk a dog yesterday, you'd think that was absolutely the best thing ever!! Hey, maybe for her, it was :)

[sparky_in_ma]

12. I'm happy for you

you understood/remembered that it was the best thing ever. Lucky mom and daughter.:D

[Maestro]

4. Love it!

Nice touch with the quote.

[LynzM]

8. Thanks!

I can't wait to have a better camera/lens to play with!

[Maestro]

14. I am probably moving to a digital SLR camera in the

fall. Should be fun.

[LynzM]

21. Sweet!

That's my dream camera at the moment... one of the Canons, with a nice zoom lens. What are you planning on getting?

[Redstone]

10. Very, very nice picture. Do you have a good printer?

If not, and you want a good print, email me the original picture file and I'll print it on the Epson 4000, which does very nice black-and-white.

[LynzM]

17. Sweet!

I will definitely take you up on that! It's one I'd like to frame and hang up eventually, when we have a place... :)

[CubsFan1982]

11. You really should consider taking it up professionally.

That's the second photo you've posted that was an awesome shot. :D

[LynzM]

19. Aw, thanks, dude

You just made me :D

I'd love to be able to pursue it more... hopefully, within the next year, I'll be able to get a better camera. After that, who knows!

[progmom]

15. I love it!!!

really beautiful. :hi:

[LynzM]

20. Thanks progmom

24. LMAO

Reading Emerson is good for me; I should do it more often....

[Floogeldy]

26. I always was a terrible message board bluffer

}(

[LynzM]

28. LOL

Too funny...

No prob, dude. Another couple of good Emerson quotes I found tonight:

Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist.

To fill the hour—that is happiness.

Not he is great who can alter matter, but he who can alter my state of mine.

[LynzM]

27. Oops

That was the wrong 'reply' button....

[CornField]

22. That's a beautiful photograph

I'm really partial to black and whites -- just something about them. You should have it matted and framed.

[LynzM]

25. Me too

I love B&W photography... I'd like to print this one and frame it in the 'frameless' glass type of frame :)

[SarahB]

29. Beautiful picture!

Question though, did she climb too? :)


P.S. Good quote. :hi:

[LynzM]

32. Thanks SB :)

Yes, she did climb up the big piles of rocks (I made her hold my hand, though...)

[shesemsmom]

30. That is an award winner if I ever saw it

AWESOME!!!

[LynzM]

33. Thanks!

I'll have to wait for an appropriate contest to enter it in!

[TheProphetess]

31. Wow - that's gorgeous!

Very impressive picture - looks like a professional photo. :hi:

[LynzM]

34. Thanks, Prophetess!

I wish (without really knowing what I'd be getting into!) that I could take pics for a living... maybe some year!

[Zomby Woof]

35. She's growing up fast!

GREAT caption for an amazing picture of a young brain expanding the universe!

[LynzM]

37. Yeah, she is!!

Hi ZW! :hi:

She is so much fun these days, so many new things she is saying and learning!

[sniffa]

36. eeeek!

that's so f'n adorabLe!!! :D

i see where you took that other pic too.

[LynzM]

38. LOL

Thanks, Sniffa! You should meet her sometime, she is fun! I guess we'd have to have a non-bar-oriented meetup for that, though ;)

Actually, the other pic is at a park, nearby.... I just have an affinity for playing with B&W pics! :bounce:

[Mrs_Beastman]

39. adorable

[LynzM]

40. Thanks, MrsB!

I'm rather fond of her, myself ;)

[MissMillie]

41. That's a great picture

you have a talented eye.

[LynzM]

44. Thanks MissM!

:hi:

[jonnyblitz]

42. great picture. I love black and white pictures!

she is like her daddy, she doesn't like to show her face in pictures. :P: :hi:

[LynzM]

45. Hey Jonny!

Lemme dig you up a pic of her making her ham-face, it's cute! :)

[auntAgonist]

43. that is a stunning photograph!

Congratulations ! You must frame it and hang it. I love the quote that you put with it..


The photo reminds me of when I was a child growing up by the sea side in Scotland.


very impressive.

aA

[LynzM]

46. Hi aA!

I'd love to hear more about Scotland and what it was like growing up there! I have all these (probably-silly) american views that are mostly movie-inspired! LOL
