Total accident that the light reflected off this shiny sticker to illuminate the halo like that... or was it??
I am a proud new owner of a SB900! I use it mostly as an onboard flash and as a CLS commander for my 2 SB600's! I really love the UI and the buttons on it. It costed me a pretty penny, but I sure do love the flash. It came with a green and orange color gels, a gel holder attachment, and a diffuser attachment. Pretty nice to have along with the regular pop up card.
Also the 200mm is pretty darn narrow, but fairly wide! I do like having the flexibility to get such a narrow beam! More play time!
Taken a second after feeding the youngster, the parent just looks so proud of his offspring. Well done for eating, my boy!
We were up in Glasgow at the weekend and Pride was on, so we went along to George Square to share in the festivities. It was raining, but that didn't dampen the fun - George Square was packed with happy people and there was a wonderful carnival atmosphere. I wish I'd been less of a wuss and taken some photos of the fabulous and daring outfits, but I felt too shy. Next time!

This usher at the Giants game last night had a copy of today's Chronicle, and she was very proud to show it to anyone who was curious.
Her son, Erik, had a base hit in the bottom of the last inning in the championship game of the San Francisco Section. The hit drove home the winning run, and let's just say that mama was very proud.
From my blog so you know what the heck this is -
I know I seem to give that title to a lot of pictures, but I really am one proud Mommy. :) Sometimes I want to talk about them but don't want to sound like I am bragging either...but when it comes to your kids and their accomplishments...we as parents SHOULD be proud.
We had CJ's second 1st grade parent teacher conference of the year last night and I almost found myself tearing up in the middle of the conference because I am just so proud of CJ and where he is academically.
In the November conference he had just been moved up to the highest reading group in his class, but he was dealing with some self control issues with other kids in his class. So, as proud of him as we were about the awesome reading, etc, it was hard to over look the behavioral issues, even as minor as they were.
So we talked to CJ about being a "leader" and setting an example for his peers instead of joining them when they are not making good choices. Talk and talk of wondering if he was listening.
The first thing out of his teachers mouth last night was "CJ had really grown into such a leader in the classroom."
Auhhhhh. I teared up. He really DOES listen.
Anyway, that was only the beginning of her praise for CJ. We waited for the "but.....", and it never came.
She pulled out the reading progress chart where it shows what level they are reading at and CJ is reading at the average level of a 3rd grader. I am telling you want, they selected him for this enrichment reading program in his school called "Book Worms", and he just took off. He can seriously pick up an adult book and read it and sound out all of the words (this can be good or bad! LOL!). She said by far he has the highest reading skills in the class. :)
****blushing*****
She went on to say that she is not sure what he isn't good at and actually used the "scholar athlete" word. She went on to say that usually boys this age are good at one or the other, he is amazing at both. WOW. WOW. WOW.
With "S" being the highest you can get he had 8 out of 32 areas were an "S" (Area of Strength). He had 3 "S"'s in November. The other 24 areas he got "G"'s in or Grade/Age Appropriate.
Then there were a bunch of "effort" scores. 4 (High Effort) is the highest. They grade them in 22 different areas. He had 4's in 18 out of the 22 areas. :) The rest were all 3's (Consistent Effort).
His one and only 2 (Fair, skill needs correction at times, but is close to standard) came in....well....self control in Physical Education class. Which is SO funny because Chris and I are both Physical Education majors and we went to college with CJ's PE teacher! In her comments it DID say this, "CJ's effort and participation have been terrific up to this point. Many of the skills presented come very easy for him. We continue to work on controlling our excitement and lot letting it get the best of him." He just loves PE so much, he can't contain himself! LOL!
Anyway....I am enjoying every minute of the days when it is still "cool" to be smart. I hope that he continues on the same path...I hope I continue to hear "I don't know what there is left for him to improve on." at more conferences in his lifetime.
He is an amazing little boy....and I am so proud to call him my son. :)
simply just cropped an old pic of me and painted my eye in the pride colours it's not too good as i did it at half three in the morning and this is the first rough attempt.
This VERY proud Dad with his three children on a sunny afternoon in North Texas, U.S.A.

Walking around a holy lake by a large Sikh temple (bokeh'd in the background) in Delhi this proud father of three called me over and asked me to take photos of him and his family bathing the lake waters. I hope he was not too dissapointed when he tried to look at the back of my SLR to realise that its not a digital camera. Incredible India
His pride knows no bounds these days - the 2 main pairs of swans are busy nesting, so most of the time he has the run of the lake along with "the girls" (Mama Swan and Thea).
With 21-year-old Mama Swan losing her mate last year, and our old Boy here at 25 without one, we thought how nice it would be if they got together just for the companionship. Alas, he has other ideas, and ignores Mama Swan or even pecks at her, and hangs out with 6-year-old Thea, the only other swan with no mate! There he is on most days, making eyes at Thea, sweet-talking her and making hearts. So much for our matchmaking plans! :)
In Sauraha was a small shop opposite our hotel. The owner of the shop was a very nice lady, always a smile on her face and friendly and helpful. Her presence gave the shop a warm atmosphere and we bought something there every day, snacks for the road or some fruit.
With her ​​in the small shop was her daughter, always cheerful and laughing and the girl now and then was walking a few steps through the shop. On the last day in Sauraha I asked if I could make a picture of them. With a big smile she nodded yes... She took her daughter on the arm and proudly posed with her little girl...
